Flumen researchers Martin Fritz and Lilian Pungas have participated working on briefing paper that was just published by the Wellbeing Economy Alliance (WEAll).

The COVID-19 pandemic is having devastating effects on vulnerable communities around the world but we are also seeing glimpses of hope, where societies are working to “build back better” by ensuring basic needs and protecting our natural environment.

The WEAll collaboration presents “Ten principles for building back better to create wellbeing economies post-covid” which you can find here: https://wellbeingeconomy.org/ten-principles-for-building-back-better-to-create-wellbeing-economies-post-covid
