Description

Many Australians are dissatisfied with the narrow economic focus of politics, research by the University of Melbourne’s ANDI Project confirms.

They want the progress of their society to be measured by a much broader range of factors, like health, environmental standards and youth wellbeing.

They’re not alone. Across the globe there’s a growing movement to move “beyond GDP”, to start planning for the future based on wider models of societal progress.
