Buen Vivir Framework for Socio-Eco Wellbeing

Buen Vivir is a practical alternative way of achieving sustainability and wellbeing. It is a holistic and cooperative way forward that places equal importance of human and environmental wellbeing through a set of core principles and a way of life. This way of approaching wellbeing is called Socio-Eco Wellbeing. Learning from local communities in Ecuador, I have developed a framework around the 17 principles for Buen Vivir based on community practice and philosophy that serves as a tool for communities to drive change for themselves. It also serves as guidance for local governments and development professionals to help facilitate change in their communities.
