Professor Henrietta Moore takes part in a panel discussion on 'beyond GDP' hosted by the Global Governance Institute at UCL

Is economic growth essential to human prosperity and wellbeing? Can it be reconciled with environmental sustainability? Or do the converging ecological crises we are now facing, from climate change to biodiversity collapse, compel us to rethink the imperative of economic growth? Professor Henrietta L. Moore recently took part in a public panel discussion which addressed these overarching questions, while also exploring what a world ‘beyond growth’ would actually look like, how we might get there, and what governance processes would have to be in place to ensure that it is socially inclusive.
