GDP is a mess. Introducing the Social Wealth Index
March, 2021
GDP fails to include the economic value of caring for nature and for people, despite reports stating that if unpaid caring work were included, it would be 50% of GDP. So, we are developing new metrics: A Social Wealth Index.
CPS is building the Social Wealth Index (SWI), a comprehensive metric of the economic value of the work of caring for people and nature. This index, essential in our time, shows what investments are needed for a better quality of life and a strong economy.

Riane Eisler & Sharon Sund: Building a Multiracial Democracy and a Caring Economy Through Partnerism
November, 2020
The Building a Multiracial Democracy and a Caring Economy Through Partnerism workshop is a collaboration between Riane Eisler, President of the Center for Partnership Systems and Sharon Sund, Program Manager at the Conflict Resolution Center.
In this workshop, Riane Eisler develops the idea that to overcome racism, you have to overcome and change the social structure that created it. We move toward Partnerism when people recognize the investments made by people who are caring for others. We can begin first by measuring the value of care. Second, by making visible the connection between the devaluation of care and cycles of poverty. Third, by developing cohesive policies to support Partnership-oriented families. And fourth, by making the business case for the value of care.
