DESCRIPTION:

In economics, culture, and politics, there are many competing methods of measuring the good of a society, or to what degree a society enables human flourishing. Some look at GDP, others the Cost of Living Index, a Happiness Index, or the Community Well-Being Index.

But what would a Catholic Index of Well-Being look like? What might it measure?

What should Catholics think about when they weigh what a good society looks like when it comes to human dignity, the common good, solidarity, and subsidiarity—the permanent principles of Catholic social teaching?

In this inaugural economics workshop presented in partnership with the St. Monica Institute for Education and Evangelization, Catholic Conscience brings together theologians, policy thinkers, and experts in Catholic social teaching to discuss what a theoretical Catholic Index of Well-Being might include.
