This section brings together powerful frameworks, tools, and resources that support lifelong, place-based, and peer-led learning. It is designed to help us explore, discuss, and communicate the principles of a wellbeing economy and the dynamics of systemic change.
These resources aim to build capacity for a just transition—one that protects and prioritises public goods, addresses root causes of inequality and ecological degradation, and reimagines economic futures within the safe and just space defined by the Planetary Boundaries.
“Artists from all disciplines - working alongside and as activists themselves - have a pivotal role in leading our collective inquiry into new ‘social imaginaries’ informed in dialogue with the pluriverse of emergent new regenerative narratives. This work has a technical and policy component but must also dive deep into the philosophical, ethical and sensorial dimensions of our participation in phenomena such as consumerism, inspired by degrowth research, new visions of prosperity and work, and building on Planetary Boundaries research, such as that of our friend Kate Raworth on Doughnut Economics.” Call to Action
The Iceberg Model is based on 'systems thinking', a way of approaching problems that asks how various elements within a system — which could be an ecosystem, an organization, or something more dispersed such as a supply chain — influence one another. Rather than reacting to individual problems that arise, a systems thinker will ask about relationships to other activities within the system, look for patterns over time, and seek root causes.
'Multisolving' is an approach grounded in systems thinking that brings people together across sectors to address multiple problems with one policy or investment.
The Multisolving Institute provides theory, evidence, and practical tools for people to address climate change, equity, health, well-being, and biodiversity as connected issues.
