Values: at the heart of a happier world

Date Posted: 24 Jan 2013

On 24 January 2013 the “UK Values Alliance”, a movement committed to building a values-driven UK society, held its inaugural meeting.  UKVA draws together people passionate about creating better, healthier organisations and society in the UK.

Action for Happiness” is a movement for positive social change, bringing together people from all walks of life who want to play a part in creating a happier society for everyone.  Their “10 Keys to Happier Living” provide an excellent basis for those wanting to benefit from embedding the value of happiness in their lives.

 “Barrett Values Centre” states that “We believe that shared values connect human beings beyond race, religion, politics, and gender.  We believe that human societies grow and evolve when you reduce fear, build trust and increase love.  We believe that values are powerful tools for creating a better life for ourselves and future generations.”

On 24 January 2013, Action for Happiness hosted an event entitled “Values: at the heart of a happier world”.  During the thought-provoking evening, they shared with the audience, the results of a survey of views, values and priorities of citizens across the UK conducted by the Barrett Values Centre.  The report certainly contains some food for thought!  

Please support our work.  The coaching materials provided by the Human Values Foundation enable children and young people to explore, practice and choose life-enriching values.
