Why capabilities for life?
Navigating through a period of global challenges and opportunities, we need to reinstate a healthier relationship across our economy, communities and environment. We refer to this as the shift towards a ‘regenerative economy’.
To rebuild these connections, we need to move away from egocentric and individualistic thinking that focuses only on heroism, self-confidence and resilience against external forces. Instead, we must adopt mindsets and skills that prioritise the wellbeing both of humans and non-humans, fostering a more inclusive and interconnected approach to life.
In a rapidly changing landscape marked by labour market shifts, automation risks and shorter skills lifecycles, individuals across current and future generations must undergo a radical shift by unlearning and relearning a way of nurturing capabilities. Equipping ourselves to adapt to uncertainty is crucial as we innovate towards greater impact for people, places and the planet.
