ebbf - ethical business building the future & IEF - International Environment Forum members collaborated on the "Global Solidarity Accounting" project to identify ways to reset how governments account for the well-being of their populations and of their economic systems.

"Tackling #poverty can start with embracing the GDP of the poor"
