the economics
profession
Economics is at the core of our global challenges.
Human welfare ultimately depends on the design
of the global economic system.
Today, there is a critical need to transform
economics to better serve humanity.

the challenges
of the
21st century.
Economics is not adequately addressing real
world needs and is not serving society, as it must.

the roots of the system to advance a better future
for humanity. We need to develop new economic
thinking now.
