Explore our global prosperity courses

Have you ever asked yourself what it would look like to live in a truly prosperous world?

What would the economy look like? Would we have ended poverty, achieved global sustainability, or live in equitable societies?

At the UCL Institute for Global Prosperity, we have re-written the book on what counts as ‘prosperity’ – for whom, how we achieve it, and who engages in conversations about economy, society and governance. We teach across academic disciplines, drawing from economics, social sciences, sustainability, business and innovation, to give our alumni a holistic tool-kit ready to address global challenges in careers in government, business and the third sector.
