Dear Colleagues,

This special issue “Composing worlds: exploring the Intersections of Humanities, Well-being and Health in a new era” aims to open a discussion on the valuable insights into the complex dynamics between individuals, societies, health and the environment. From a transdisciplinary perspective, this special issue aims to advance our understanding of how social and environmental factors interact and influence human behaviour, attitudes, health and well-being. We encourage researchers and practitioners, from all fields of science and practice, to contribute to this special issue and collectively deepen our knowledge in this critical area of study with original research articles, review papers, and theoretical perspectives that draw upon the valuable insights of past and contemporary research.
