Abstract

The BC Atlas of Wellness follows a distinguished tradition in health-related mapping to show variations and inequities in various wellness-related indicators. Topics included in the Atlas cover traditional indicators related to the determinants of health and wellness and healthy public policies. There are also many unique indicators. The material is grounded in the physical and demographic diversity of BC, and an important feature of the Atlas is that it uses the ActNow BC health promotion initiative as a framework to present the mapped indicators.
