http://www.euronews.com/ The tiny Himalayan kingdom of Bhutan is making waves with its radical approach to measuring development.
Instead of, as in the rest of the world, measuring the state of the nation in terms of material wealth or GDP, Bhutan is integrating the promotion of happiness into education, and then measuring how happy the people feel. The government believes this is the only indicator that counts, and the idea is strongly promoted by Bhutan's much-loved Royal couple.
