About this listen

In episode 7 of Mapping the Planetary, we speak with Amanda Janoo, Economics and Policy Lead at the Wellbeing Economy Alliance (WEAll)—a global network of changemakers working to transform our economic systems.

Janoo introduces WEAll’s core mission: to prioritize the wellbeing of people and the planet over traditional, GDP-centered models of growth. She outlines how rethinking economic frameworks and embracing participatory, goal-driven policy design can pave the way for more just, sustainable, and resilient economies.

The conversation explores the meaning and importance of a “wellbeing economy,” the shortcomings of conventional growth metrics, and the potential of collaborative policymaking to shape a more equitable future.
