Dina Sherif, executive director of the MIT Kuo Sharper Center for Prosperity and Entrepreneurship, and co-author wrote: "Today, policymakers, academics and business leaders alike recognize that 20th-century growth models are no match for 21st-century challenges. If we continue chasing GDP while ignoring human development, the future risks becoming one of high output but low well-being. However, if we recalibrate and work on putting people, equity, innovation and sustainability at the core, we can enter a new era of prosperity."
