About this event

How can Wales lead the way in creating an economy that works for people and planet?

Join us for an inspiring and thought-provoking event exploring how a Wellbeing Economy and a Feminist Green New Deal can shape a fairer, more sustainable Wales.

We'll discuss:

  • What does a truly just transition to net zero look like - one that puts care, equality, and sustainability at its core?
  • How can we reimagine our economy to prioritise the wellbeing of people, communities, and future generations?
  • What practical actions can policymakers and communities in Wales take today to create change?

Hear from the experts behind two bold new visions for Wales:

  • Joe Rossiter, Institute of Welsh Affairs, author of “A Flourishing Wellbeing Economy for Wales”
  • Dr Alison Parken and Prof Sara MacBride-Stewart, authors of the "Feminist Green New Deal for Wales"
  • Sarah Rees and Hade Turkmen, Oxfam Cymru
  • Jonathan Tench, Office of the Future Generations Commissioner for Wales
  • Bethan Webber, Cwmpas

Together, we’ll explore how feminist economics, climate justice, and wellbeing principles can help build a caring, green, and inclusive economy - where no one is left behind.

The discussion will be followed by a Q&A with the audience.
