The Wellbeing Economy with Katherine Trebeck

Stories of Being by Ingrid James

Episode notes

The economy is often something that is seen as stagnant and set in stone, but is that really the case? Today I talk to Dr. Katherine Trebeck about the role the economy plays in the wellbeing of our planet and its people, GDP, always asking WHY and a new way of thinking about our economic system. Katherine is a political economist, writer and advocate for economic system change. She co-founded the Wellbeing Economy Alliance and also WEAll Scotland, its Scottish hub. She is writer-in-residence at the University of Edinburgh’s Edinburgh Futures Institute and a Strategic Advisor to Australia’s Centre for Policy Development. She sits on a range of boards and advisory groups and is an inspiring woman who believes, and more importantly, demonstrates that conversations and questions can create real change.
