Impact, Measured Differently: A Unique Framework for Human and Planetary Impact based on Wellbeing
Date & time: 3 June, 13:00–14:00 BST / 14:00–15:00 CEST
Speakers: Leaps by Bayer, Happiness Research Institute
Location: Zoom - https://us02web.zoom.us/j/85080015102
Our next Deep Dive takes an interactive, workshop-style format, hosted by the team at Leaps by Bayer, who will share the impact measurement framework they've been building - and put it in our hands to test.
The session introduces the innovative ‘WALY’ framework - developed by The Happiness Research Institute in collaboration with Leaps - which redefines how we assess human and planetary impact across diverse sectors. The workshop demystifies the WALY framework by illustrating its practical application in healthcare and agriculture, empowering attendees to adopt the WALY framework for their own use.
Following a presentation on the methodology, participants are tasked with calculating WALYs for two fictional companies: one addressing nitrogen fixation and the other cystic fibrosis, to determine which innovation would generate the greater impact.
The aim is to leave with a working sense of how the framework can sharpen real investment decisions.
