An economic system that supports people and planet is still possible

No new vision arose from the ashes after the financial crisis exposed the failings of todays economic system, but while the task is daunting its still within reach

I direct an organisation with an ambitious mission statement: to transform the economy so that it works for people and the planet.

For 30 years the New Economics Foundation has been working with others to shift our economic system away from the current model growth no matter the cost to one where the primary goal is maximising human wellbeing, fairly, and without destroying the environment on which we all depend.
