A Wellbeing Economies film
“Purpose” is a compelling documentary that delves into the heart of our economic system’s greatest challenges. The film follows two individuals who dare to reimagine our economic future.
“We need an economy in service of the kinds of lives that people want.” — Katherine Trebeck, Central protagonist of ‘Purpose’, Political economist, co-founder of the Wellbeing Economy Alliance, Co-instigator of the Wellbeing Economy Governments
Director Martin Oetting brings us on a journey with Katherine Trebeck, founder of the Wellbeing Economy Governments alliance, and Lorenzo Fioramonti, who transitions from alliance supporter to Italian Minister. Together, they challenge the conventional GDP-focused economy, advocating for a system that prioritises human and planetary wellbeing. The film showcases how five nations – Scotland, New Zealand, Iceland, Wales, and Finland – unite to pioneer a revolutionary approach to economic policy, potentially marking the beginning of a global economic transformation.
