Measuring progress, true wealth and the well-being of nations are the topics that will be discussed at a high-level conference on 19-20 November organised by the Commission in partnership with the European Parliament, the OECD, the Club of Rome and WWF. The aim of the conference is to move towards a better appreciation of what progress, wealth and well-being actually are, decide how they should be measured, and highlight the benefits of integrating them into decision-making. The Beyond GDP conference will be opened by the President of the Commission, Jose Manuel Barroso on the first day and the President of the European Parliament, Hans-Gert Pöttering, on the second day. |
