Nestlé Australia launches Happily Healthy Project

Rebecca Prescott12 Sep 2011

Nestlé Australia has launched an interactive Happily Healthy Project to measure how happy and healthy Australians are. A first study of its kind is conducted in partnership with Sydney University.

The company examines key factors that contribute to health and happiness, exploring the complex relationship between the two.

Over 30,000 people have already taken part in the 10-​minute online survey developed with the help of a motivational psychologist from Sydney University, Dr Anthony Grant.

After answering questions, people get recommendations about how to change their lifestyles to make them happier and healthier.

Dr Grant said: “It’s really hard to reach the goals in our lives unless we have some sort of benchmark. Sometimes, people are hesitant to go online to do a self-​assessment or a test as they think they could fail, but there’s no right or wrong answers.”

A key element of Nestlé’s Happily Healthy Project is the Happily Healthy Quotient (HHQ), where people can be scored on their level of satisfaction with life, both physically and emotionally.

Once participants sign up to the website and find their HHQ, a team of experts in psychology, nutrition and fitness will provide them with tips to improve their overall well-​being.
