Asset-based approaches in health care

"The title, ‘Head, hands and heart’ refers to a well-known asset-mapping technique, in which participants are asked to respond to three questions: What knowledge do you have? (‘head’); What skills do you have? (‘hands’); What are you passionate about? (‘heart’).

The report introduces the theory and practice of asset-based approaches, explores some of the key principles for developing health assets and the evidence and mechanisms of impact on health outcomes of asset-based projects in the UK. It also identifies areas for further investigation."
