What is a wellbeing economy? 

Designed with purpose, a wellbeing economy puts the planet and its people first. 

It moves beyond the focus on Gross Domestic Product and economic growth as our primary markers of progress, shifting towards indicators that prioritise health, social and environmental outcomes for the people today and the generations of the future.

Where no young person is denied a future that is healthy.

Enter Future Healthy. It's inspired by, shaped by and shared by the young people of Victoria.  Investing in grassroots community organisations to make a difference in local communities.
