Description

The term glocalization is often used when considering wellbeing intervention design in the global majority world, including the APAC region. This presentation will begin by exploring how a euro-centric model of psychological health poses a challenge to working in APAC regions then move to sharing a case study of how we have tailored interventions for APAC groups. Finally, we will provide actionable takeaways including a) wellbeing strategies that can be immediately implemented with your teams as a tactical solution and b) strategic considerations for decision-makers seeking to find a wellbeing partner/vendor that understands local context and nuance. All of this will be explored through the presenter's own lived experience as a member of the APAC community and from working directly with moderation teams from APAC backgrounds.
