“The studies designed to measure the effectiveness of the tasks performed in IWEN Happiness Lessons show that these exercises strengthen self-confidence, endurance, increase concentration, enhance divergent thinking and creativity. IWEN Happiness Lessons, included in skill development programmes should be a part of both public and adult education.”
