The new international alliances were formed to spread the word about <strong>The Wellness Moonshot: A World Free of Preventable Disease <\/strong>in more countries in 2020.<\/p>\n<p>The GWI\u2019s international partners for The Wellness Moonshot include China\u2019s Tianren Culture, a next-generation social platform that supports social enterprises; India\u2019s Smart Group, which was responsible for introducing mobile phones and electric cars to the country and sees wellness and prevention as central to India\u2019s successful future; and Israel\u2019s Welltech1, an innovation hub and micro-fund investing in wellness start-ups with a focus on making people healthier and happier.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLifestyle-related disease and the skyrocketing cost of healthcare have created a global crisis\u2014roughly 70 percent of all deaths each year are a result of preventable diseases, while the global cost of preventable chronic disease is anticipated to reach $47 trillion by 2030,\u201d said the GWI\u2019s Chief Creative Officer and Executive Director Nancy Davis. \u201cThis is a crisis that the wellness industry is uniquely suited to positively impact, and it\u2019s with immense pleasure and pride that we introduce our new international partners in the mission to fight preventable disease.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>As an umbrella organization that brings together often siloed forces and sectors all working to build a healthier world, the GWI is committed to bringing the issue of preventable disease to the forefront of its research and education efforts. The Wellness Moonshot: A World Free of Preventable Disease was launched in 2017 at the Global Wellness Summit; in 2019, the organization announced a partnership with <em>Prevention <\/em>magazine to help spread the word in the United States.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs a result of economic development, the health and wellness issues we face globally have fundamentally changed. In China, for example, the top five leading causes of death are now exactly the same as they are in the US, many driven by lifestyle choices such as diet and smoking,\u201d said Victor Koo, co-founder, Tianren Culture. \u201cThe mission of The Wellness Moonshot is in line with Tianren Culture\u2019s vision of \u2018One Health, One Wellness\u2019 and its quest to positively impact lifestyle choices both for the health of people and our planet. We look forward to sharing the GWI\u2019s mission with a Chinese audience.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s a privilege to bring the visionary Wellness Moonshot initiative to Israel,\u201d said Amir Alroy, co-founder of Welltech1. \u201cChronic disease is the leading cause of death and disability in the world, including in Israel. It will be an honor to educate and share the valuable content created by the GWI. At Welltech1, we are committed to investing in and accelerating start-ups that make people healthier and happier\u2014the Moonshot fits our goals perfectly.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWellness to me is having a pain-free body and a stress-free mind. In this era of redefined and rebranded aging, I live by the motto of living happy, healthy and wealthy beyond 100 years.\u00a0Our generation is aging radically different than our predecessors, we are no longer bound by societal norms, and we continue to live our lives as we like,\u201d said Dr. Modi, chairman, Smart Group. \u201cI firmly believe that preventive health and holistic healing holds the key to living this \u2018positively\u00a0cool\u2019 life. With the continuous innovations in health and wellness,\u00a0I\u2019m very excited to be a part of the Wellness Moonshot movement\u00a0in India\u00a0and look forward to seeing the changes we can bring together.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>About the Global Wellness Institute<\/strong>:\u00a0The\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/globalwellnessinstitute.org\/\">Global Wellness Institute<\/a>\u2122\u00a0(GWI), a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, is the leading research\u00a0and educational resource for the global wellness economy.
