Today’s program is structured around a conversation with Johannes Hirata, a visiting economics professor from Osnabrück, Evansville’s sister city in Germany.
Hirata's research focuses on happiness and correlations to economic growth, and what this means to policy-making and notions of development.
We’ll hear more about his findings, plus, we’ll sit with Evansville’s Director for the Department of Metropolitan Development Philip Hooper.
Finally, we'll talk with two Henderson residents about how how different generations, lifestyles and incomes relate to happiness.
