How do we flip the script from people and the planet serving the economy to an economy serving people and nature?
Join Gareth Hughes, Director of Wellbeing Economy Alliance Aotearoa, at the Repair Co-lab for a discussion on the global movement for a wellbeing economy. WEAll’s vision is a world where prosperity is measured by the health of our communities, the sustainability of our environment and the inclusiveness of our societies, rather than GDP alone.
Connecting this vision with Repair Network Aotearoa’s mahi, Gareth will explore product design, consumerism, ethical sourcing and workers’ rights and how businesses can thrive by valuing care, craftsmanship and products designed to last. Drawing on ideas and frameworks from around the world, including Europe’s right-to-repair reforms and forthcoming ban on products made with forced labour, he will consider practical pathways for change in Aotearoa and reasons to be hopeful in turbulent times.
You will also have the opportunity to have a sneak peek into the repair co-lab set up and learn a little more about what we do.
