Economic growth and prosperity

Throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, governments and businesses across the world have been discussing ways to 'build back better'. One of the approaches being considered by the Scottish Government is the concept of a 'Wellbeing Economy', which advocates for an economic system built around humanity.

WIG was delighted to invite you to a webinar with Benny Higgins, Chair of the Independent Advisory Group on Economic Recovery for the Scottish Government. By tuning in online, you will:

  • Have the opportunity to understand what a Wellbeing Economy is, and how it could transform the economic system in Scotland
  • Learn about the route to major systems change, and what this entails from a policy perspective
  • Hear of the ways in which cross-sector collaboration is key to delivering a robust, resilient recovery from COVID-19
