Are You Happy?

SwatchJunkies

August 15, 2012

We often measure success by economic means…GDP, GNP, unemployment, and more. But other indicators might come closer to measuring what really matters. We’ve long advocated for measuring GNH: Gross National Happiness.

Next weekend, the Happiness Initiative will hold Happiness 2012: A Strategic Gathering at Seattle University. Attendees will learn about this new initiative, help plan “Pursuit of Happiness Day,” and hear from leaders of the movement.

The details:

Happiness 2012
When: August 24-25, 2012
Where: Seattle University
Cost: $55 for general admission.
