As a result of three-year intensive work, an interdisciplinary team of scientists has contributed to making Latvian society safer, more educated, and happier in the future. This article also explains the rationale for the project and provides an insight into the course of its implementation. A summary of the findings of the project has been made by the scientific leader of the project, making use of the multifaceted input of the project participants. A much broader presentation of these findings will be found in the forthcoming book dedicated to the study.
