The F Word! I want us all to use it. I want you to use it more often. I want politicians, our First Minister and policymakers to use it. I want teachers, nurses, journalists, sports players, bus drivers, shopkeepers, parents, grandparents to use the F word* in our daily lives. If you're reading this... shout the F word out loud! *not the F word you're probably thinking! 😅 https://lnkd.in/eDdY3G8T Thank you so much to Aberystwyth for the opportunity to deliver my first TEDx Talk!

Today marks the 10 year anniversary of the passing of the Well-being of Future Generations (Wales) Act 2015 by the Welsh Senedd (Parliament). what an honour to be part of its journey. Watch this space in coming weeks and months ❤️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 The Office of the Future Generations Commissioner for Wales

Today is ten years since the pioneering Well-being of Future Generations Act became law. Cymru is the only country in the world with a Well-being of Future Generations Act, which was passed on the floor of the Senedd on March 17, 2015. The nation’s commitment to the well-being of future generations takes inspiration from indigenous wisdom and the Seventh Generation Principle and since the Act was passed, several other countries across the world are acting in the interests of the not-yet-born. The approach mandates Welsh Government and public bodies like health boards and local councils to improve our social, cultural, environmental and economic well-being and take long-term action, and it has led to a progressive school curriculum, a greener direction for travel in Wales and a new way to define prosperity, free universal school meals for primary school children and Wales becoming second in the world for recycling. //https://lnkd.in/e3weegJ2 The Office of the Future Generations Commissioner for Wales Jane Davidson Peter Davies Sophie Howe
