The value of value: reframing the meaning of success
As public and private entities choose how to implement the green transition in time to effect positive change in our lifetime, many large-scale systemic developments will be approved or rejected based on status quo metrics formed to maintain sector-based monopolies. This interdisciplinary study will explore the evaluation framework for measuring socio-economic and commercial development, and whether new frames of reference should be applied to measure success.
