Thank you very much for your interest in the Thriving Places Index 2020. As I’m sure you’re aware, public health advice concerning coronavirus is changing rapidly and on this basis we are changing the format of the event to a webinar to be held at the same time as the previously scheduled launch event, 15:00-16:00 on Wednesday 18th March.

We are working to make this an informative, interactive and inspirational event, and are hopeful the digital format will make participation more broadly accessible to our audiences across England and Wales and beyond. However, places are limited so please register early to attend (even if you have already registered for the physical event).

Putting wellbeing economics into practice: using data from the Thriving Places Index 2020 webinar

Created by Centre for Thriving Places (the new name for Happy City), the Thriving Places Index is a robust reporting framework that shows the conditions for wellbeing across the 373 local authorities in England and Wales. It radically challenges the current paradigm that defines progress by economic measures of consumption and wealth creation.

The webinar will give you an opportunity to:

Hear the latest insights and analysis from the 2020 data release and key findings from our research team
Submit questions, insights or ideas about using the framework and the data from the Thriving Places Index in your work
Hear from other sectors working in wellbeing economics and from Local Authorities taking an innovative approach

This event has been sponsored by our partners, Triodos Bank.
