Our
Approach

Jamma's support for The Wellness Society began at the launch stages in 2017 when founder Rebecca Marks established an online platform with the purpose of making self-help and mental health resources and tools available to a wider audience.


The wellbeing of communities and individuals across the planet is something that we here at Jamma feel very strongly about. Life is complex, and we all have many more challenges to deal with in today’s fast-paced world. What if there was a fast, straightforward and easy way to access tools and resources to help us cope with our responses to the pressures of modern life?

High quality self-help tools, available to all.

The Wellness Society is a social enterprise that sets out to bridge the gap for people who find long-term private therapy unaffordable yet are reluctant or unable to get help from overstretched mental health services. By providing a range of targeted self-help tools and resources for individuals, coaches and private practitioners, The Wellness Society delivers accessible, affordable support to manage mental health difficulties, anxiety and stress.

“Fortunately research shows that self-help tools are often enough for people to overcome mild to moderate mental health difficulties without professional support.” - The Wellness Society

As well as providing resources for individuals, The Wellness Society also produces a series of toolkits for therapists and coaches to enhance their practice with a wide range of holistic and beautifully designed tools - for both their clients and for supporting their own mental wellbeing.

At the early stages of 2020’s COVID-19 pandemic, The Wellness Society produced the Coronavirus Anxiety Workbook. It was designed to provide much needed support for communities living through an unprecedented period of global uncertainty. The Workbook was a valuable tool that provided strategies and support for anyone experiencing heightened stress and anxiety.

“We must stop over-medicalising mental health. And we must focus on creating high quality, concise self-help tools designed with low motivation and energy in mind.” - Rebecca Marks, The Wellness Society

The Wellness Society’s mission to make self-help resources easily accessible to individuals and practitioners was something that resonated strongly with Jamma International, and we were pleased to support this project through its launch stages.

In Sub-Saharan Africa, conservation is morally contested. This project explores some of the most important and contentious issues around conservation and sustainable use that are affecting people in Sub-Saharan Africa, where there appear to be major rifts between local and external moral worldviews. Jamma International is supporting this project in collaboration with the University of Oxford, Cornell University, and WWF Germany. The focus of this project is primarily on conservation areas in sub-Saharan Africa.
