Join the hybrid Ecocity World Summit in London! 6-8 June 2023. They are now accepting submissions for research or projects that support our Summit theme of ‘𝗖𝗼𝗻𝗻𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗖𝗼𝗺𝗺𝘂𝗻𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗲𝘀’ - urban solutions that explore and apply collaborative practices to city-making. To share your work, follow this link.

In January 2021, the North of Tyne became the first Mayoral Combined Authority in the UK to formally adopt a wellbeing framework. In doing so, they committed to aligning future decision-making with the goal of improving social, economic, environmental and democratic outcomes for everyone living in the region. This evaluation report tells the story of how they achieved this.

WEAll member Mick Cooper has launched a new book: 'Psychology at the Heart of Social Change: Developing a Progressive Vision for Society' which makes the case for putting psychological concerns, such as wellbeing, at the heart of political thinking and policy. Drawing on decades of research and practice as a therapist, the book argues that psychological insights can help us understand what kind of society we want to create, and how we can get there.
