Sutton Coldfield, West Midlands, England, United Kingdom

I am a Senior Engagement Manager working at the intersection of corporate and financial institutions engagement, research and projects focusing transforming our economy into a more sustainable and equitable global economy. I am a transdisciplinarian and draw on senior-level career in the private and NGO sectors to identify and connect leverage points between corporate, financial, and public systems; fostering key relationships and intervention mechanisms necessary to integrate the environmental and social dimensions into our current economic and financial systems. I hold an MA degree in International Studies and Diplomacy and a BA degree in Development Studies and Geography from SOAS and has experienced major economic system shift during the transition from communism to late-stage capitalism. I believe that we can design a different system in which we can be individuals as well as an integral part of a community and in which our way of life is rooted in caring for nature. I am passionate about the twin path of transformation - the inner and outer world and about co-creating a new, regenerative story and vision for the world, rooted in the custodianship of the Earth, diverse kinship, interconnectedness, and collaboration. I enjoy working with bridge builders and those that develop new ideas on the current periphery.

Southwest Finland, Finland

52 -year old Logistics student, who wants to change the way we think about well-being is general (and of course economics too). Good start is to read Robert Lustig´s "Hacking of the American mind". Most often, well - being is generated through your personal actions and decisions not by trying to reach all worthless products or services market economy wants you to use today. Today´s grocery store´s food selection is full of "worthless" foods and beverages, which may actually be quite harmful to you and therefore greates not more well - being but just the opposite. This was just one example, but you get the idea. We used to be humans, now we are consumers and this is a global problem in most developed countries all over the world.
