There is a seismic shift underway in economics, hastened by the aftermath of the Covid-19 pandemic.

Communities and countries around the world are beginning to adopt/consider adopting well-being and prosperity as major guiding principles. The aim is to deploy new forms of economic theory and policy to reflect the importance of nature in their future development.
