Wellbeing, inclusion, sustainability and the economy

A new economic paradigm based on well-being, inclusion and sustainability
Imagine a world in which well-being, inclusion and sustainability are objectives of all economic policies and practices. The EU-funded WISE Horizons project will design an economic paradigm that focuses on these objectives. Specifically, it will develop a theoretical and accounting framework that will link to various policy strategies and Beyond GDP metrics. By assessing the current and new economic paradigms from a global perspective with partners from Africa and China, the project will shed light on trade-offs and synergies. Findings will be analysed through a co-creative approach involving stakeholders and thematic and integrated models. A large WISE Horizons Stakeholder Network will be created which will assist in the ambitious communication strategy to promote a new debate and focus on a paradigm fit for the future.
