South Australia is entering the recovery phase after battling the twin disasters of coronavirus and bushfires this year.

But in a world still reeling from the COVID-19 pandemic, what do the State Government and SA's business leaders need to do to supercharge this recovery and put the state on track to sustained economic growth? And how will this create new jobs and support the wellbeing of families across the state?

Future Adelaide magazine and The Advertiser, in partnership with the Government of South Australia, have hosted a series of live-streamed panel discussions bringing together heavy-hitters from business, academia and government to examine our best path to prosperity.

The third forum in our series focused on wellbeing, and how South Australians can maintain strong personal relationships and work-life balance during this challenging time.

It featured SA’s chief public health officer Professor Nicola Spurrier, SAHMRI Wellbeing and Resilience Centre lead researcher Joep Van Agteren, and Wellbeing SA chief executive Lyn Dean. You can watch the replay on our Facebook page or in the below video player.
