Students for Happiness
A discussion forum which aims to put happiness at the heart of discourse amongst young people.
STUDENTS FOR HAPPINESS is a pioneering discussion forum which aims to put happiness at the heart of discourse amongst young people. We are educated on an infinite array of subjects but we are rarely taught anything about happiness and well-being. In response to this educational deficit, Students for Happiness provides invigorating and thought-provoking discussions surrounding the subjective terms of ‘happiness’ and ‘well-being’ from a myriad of perspectives, through a wide range of events across London and Oxford. To date, the forum has hosted some of the most influential and acclaimed experts in the fields of economics, psychology, the arts, politics, education and beyond.
