The ACT Government’s Wellbeing Framework comprises 12 indicators in an attempt to measure Canberrans’ “personal wellbeing” and “quality of life”. Significantly, “economy” is just one of those 12 domains, alongside “environment and climate”, “social connection” and “health”. How is the wellbeing framework being implemented? How does it relate to concepts such as circular or doughnut economics, or help in tackling climate change?
Join us online for a discussion about the framework and how focusing on wellbeing instead of financial wealth could lead to greater prosperity for our city, people and environment.
