Episode notes

Part 2 of the episode. We recommend you listen to Part 1 if you haven't already. What really drives happiness in the 21st century? The UN designates March 20 as “International Day of Happiness” to celebrate the importance of happiness and well-being as “universal goals and aspirations in the lives of human beings worldwide and in public policy objectives". Join Kokou Agbo-Bloua as he delves into the dynamics of happiness economics and the pursuit of genuine well-being in today's globalized world. Kokou questions the conventional metrics of success and prosperity, pondering whether the path to true happiness lies beyond material wealth and economic growth. Could sustainability, ESG principles, and ethical finance pave the way for a more meaningful existence, transcending traditional measures of prosperity? Through an engaging discussion with esteemed guest Claudia Senik, professor at the Paris School of Economics, Kokou confronts the pressing issues of intergenerational equity, societal well-being, and the imperative to balance present gratification with future sustainability.
