| Description | This chapter begins by defining key areas of social challenge before moving on to provide examples of museums in action, highlights the importance of multi-agency working. The ambition of the education team was to work with children and young people, their families, schools, and communities to achieve social change by preventing and diverting crime and anti-social behaviour. Wellbeing is a complex concept that includes a 'broader measure of health and ability to function and implies a system that values goals other than personal happiness'. The UK National Health Service gives guidance on improving mental wellbeing involving connecting with other people, being physically active, learning new skills, giving to others, and giving attention to the present moment. Climate change is one of the defining issues of age, and one in which museums are becoming increasingly involved internationally, from developing sustainability strategies for their sites to taking part in protest.
