Blue Zones Project
About the organizer
Blue Zones Project® is a community-led, well-being improvement initiative designed to make healthy choices easier through permanent changes to lifestyle, environment, policy, and social networks.Established in 2010, Blue Zones Project is inspired by Dan Buettner, a National Geographic Fellow and New York Timesbest-selling author who identified five regions of the world — or Blue Zones® — with the highest concentration of people living to 100 years or older. Blue Zones Project incorporates Buettner’s findings and works with cities to implement policies and programs that will move a community toward optimal health and well-being. Currently, 56 communities have joined Blue Zones Project, impacting more than 3 million people in North America.The initiative in Hawai‘i is currently in eight communities, including East Hawai‘i Island, North Hawai‘i Island, West Hawai‘i Island, Central Maui, Kapolei-‘Ewa, Koolaupoko, Mānoa-Makiki-McCully-Mō‘ili‘ili (4M), and Wahiawa, along with numerous statewide worksites and partnerships.
