- October 16 2025, 6 - 9 pm
Nanaimo Prosperity Corporation is partnering with VIU’s MBA Student Association and the Master of Community Planning Student Association for a screening of the documentary PURPOSE: A Wellbeing Economies film.
The film explores one of the most urgent questions of our time: What are our economies truly for?
Following the journeys of changemakers, Katherine Trebeck and Lorenzo Fioramonti, Purpose asks how we can redesign our economic systems to serve people and planet, instead of the other way around. Their efforts have sparked bold experiments in reimagining economic policy, including the global Wellbeing Economy Governments alliance, a movement gaining momentum worldwide.
After the film, we will have a conversation about how these ideas resonate in Nanaimo. Councillor Ben Geselbracht will be joining the panel for our post-film discussion.
