Redefining Wealth for an Economy of Performance

Redefining Wealth for an Economy of Performance

Diplomacy
29 MAY, 2018

Redefining wealth for a sustainable future is the topic of this Majlis Mohamed bin Zayed session, which includes calls for a redefinition of wealth that goes beyond traditional financial metrics. The session also explores how governments and corporations can shift towards models that value natural capital, social wellbeing, and sustainability. It also addresses the limitations of GDP as a sole measure of progress and advocates for policies that account for ecological and social impacts. The session presents a compelling case for rethinking global economic priorities to arrive at a more inclusive, balanced and forward-looking definition of prosperity.
