Webinar organized on the 25th of January 2022 by the International Resource Panel.

In this webinar, IRP Co-Chair Janez Potočnik gave a presentation explaining the vision and narrative of his recent report “System Change Compass”, and Panel Member Paul Ekins (Professor at UCL) gave reflections on how the novel framework is being taken forward by the next IRP flagship report, Global Resources Outlook, scheduled to be launched in 2023.

The System Change Compass redefines 21st Century prosperity by building a framework based on the systems delivering society’s essential needs (nutrition, housing, mobility and essential consumer goods). Focusing on delivery of human needs, rather than on ever-increasing consumption for its own sake, can drive transformation to a resilient resource-efficient economy where well-being decoupling is a reality.

Global Resources Outlook 2023 will build on this approach: assessing systems delivering societal needs and their associated environmental impacts and envisaging resource efficient futures where resource use is decoupled from human well-being.
