How can we measure wellbeing? What causes it, and how can it be improved? Richard Layard and Jan-Emmanuel De Neve present a case for making wellbeing the central goal – for government, for business and for educators. Drawing from their field-defining publication on the science of wellbeing across the life course, they call for a shift in policymaking to maximise the wellbeing of individuals and to engage citizens to contribute to more resilient, rebalanced and regenerative futures.

Thsi lecture sets out how this can be achieved.
