HEADING TOWARDS A FAIR AND SUSTAINABLE SOCIETY
FROM JUNE 29TH TO JULY 1ST, 2022 – GRENOBLE, FRANCE
In 2018, the International Forum for Well-Being “Wealth, happiness, what indicators to build tomorrow ?” brought together for 3 days more than 1,000 participants from 25 different countries around the question of a new “compass” of society. A first in Europe! Testimonies from all over the world have made more visible and concrete a vision of development based on well-being, and no longer on purely economic considerations. Building on this, Grenoble will host the second edition of the International Forum for Well-Being in June 2022, going one step further to initiate a systemic transformation. This event is part of the Grenoble European Green Capital 2022 program.
In relation with Doughnuts Economics, the aims are:
1. to accelerate the transition towards a new compass
2. to translate well-being into action and indicators, between the environmental ceiling and the social foundation
3. Support, develop and nurture the actors of change community

I have a PhD in Economics. I have completed a double curriculum in Economics and Philosophy at the University of Grenoble Alpes. My research on the conception and implementation of indicators questions the very goals of development (wellbeing, sustainability, common good, economic peace). Based on the IBEST (“indicateurs de bien-être soutenable” in French) project, which focuses on the construction of sustainable territorial social indicators in the urban community of Grenoble, my work allowed to propose a dashboard of sustainable wellbeing and to combine a quantitative survey and a qualitative participatory approach.
