Become a Member Receive updatesWhat is the
economy?
Simply put, it’s the way that we produce and provide for one another. We often think of the economy as something given, fixed and unchangeable – but it’s not. The rules, social norms and stories that underpin our current system were designed by people, and that means they can also be changed by people.
What is a
Wellbeing
Economy?
A Wellbeing Economy is an economy designed to serve people and planet, not the other way around. In a Wellbeing Economy, the rules, norms and incentives are set up to deliver quality of life and flourishing for all people, in harmony with our environment, by default.
Dignity
Everyone has enough
to live in comfort,
safety, and happiness
Nature
A restored and safe
natural world for
all life
Purpose
Institutions serve
the common good and
create real value
Fairness
Justice is at the heart
of the economy
Participation
Citizens are actively
engaged in their
communities and
locally rooted
economies
Why do we
need a
Wellbeing
Economy?
A Wellbeing Economy directly addresses the root problems of our society and the multiple crises we are facing by putting our fundamental needs for Dignity, Nature, Purpose, Fairness and Participation at the core of its activities and getting things right the first time around.
How are we
Transitioning
to a Wellbeing
Economy?
We bring together multiple actors across all regions, sectors and levels of our system to influence societal values and norms, and above all, to show that change is necessary and possible. Our underpinning value is that collaboration and togetherness define both our destination and also how we get there. Transformation calls for an entirely different way of being within human society: a shift from “us vs them” to “WE All”.

Understanding why our current system is costing us more than it is helping us
Our current economic system is based on the exploitation of people and planet and we cannot build a Wellbeing Economy without confronting past and present racism and colonisation.
