Government policy is connected with almost every aspect of our lives - yet how does it get made in practice? What does the move towards a wellbeing-centred, data-driven policy agenda look like? And what might we learn from New Zealand's experience of a wellbeing-first budget?

Government policy and wellbeing

Wellbeing goes beyond mental health: it's whether we are thriving as people, communities, and nations. We untangle what wellbeing is; how we measure it; and what it means to protect and improve it. 

From better government policies to transforming workplaces; from education, to singing, to the effect of air pollution - we look at what wellbeing has to do with it.
