Lessons from the Alaskan Family Wellness Warriors Initiative - Conference Report

A report on the outcomes of a two day conference to consider how we

might ‘learn lessons from the Alaskan Family Wellness Warriors Initiative’.


Evaluation Feedback

The feedback from the event highlighted a desire for further information about the FWWI. While the aims and objectives were clear, further details of how they were achieved would have been helpful. The workshops were mainly considered to be productive and thought provoking. Other points from the feedback were:

  • "Inspiring"
  • FWWI/NUKA model is appealing and is something Scotland should and could strive for
  • More questions than answers
  • The speakers and their presentations were regarded as very 'real', 'engaging' and 'genuine'.
  • "Fabulous speakers, so sincere, real people, not at all corporate!"
  • Re workshops: good to focus on the discussions and thoughts of day one i.e. good to build from day one
  • Realised the significance of "story" - valuable and thought provoking
