Module 3: Building a narrative for a wellbeing economy
Building on facts and evidence
When making a case for a wellbeing economy, - in addition to approaching conversations with empathy, finding the right language and demonstrating the momentum - being ready with key facts and evidence can help to overcome common myths and to relieve doubts and concerns.
The following sections will explore three common concerns about a wellbeing economy:
Common concern 1: Our wellbeing is dependent on economic growth
Common concern 2: We need economic growth to fund essential public services and the transition
Common concern 3: Will a wellbeing economy jeopardise a healthy business environment?
Each section begins by establishing common ground, then presents evidence to foster constructive dialogue, and concludes with wellbeing economy avenues to explore.
