As our economic, environmental and social crises converge, it is becoming ever clearer that lasting solutions will require more than band-aids: we need fundamental change. The Economics of Happiness conference will explore the potential for economic localization to provide systemic solutions to our many global crises. It will cover many of the themes explored in ISEC's new documentary film, The Economics of Happiness, which has inspired audiences from the US, UK and Australia to Peru, Thailand and Japan. The conference will bring together a wide range of insightful and impassioned speakers, including many of the voices from the film. Lectures and plenary sessions will be interspersed with workshops, facilitated discussions and film screenings.
