Episode Synopsis

What does it look like when we put wellbeing at the centre of National economies?

Recorded with the backdrop of the COP15 UN Biodiversity Convention, Matt sits down with two pioneers shaping the way Nations approach economic development. Michael Weatherhead, Development Lead at the Wellbeing Economy Alliance, and Gary Gillespie, Director and Chief Economic Adviser of the Scottish Government, share their experiences of navigating more inclusive policy and finance structures. From a Future Generations Bill to Natural Capital Accounts and Quality of Life Frameworks, we look at the innovative levers for positive change in national governance.
