It does not consider the environmental and social effects and expenses of growth. Several initiatives worldwide are working to include sustainability in measuring economic development.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>In Hungary, three research groups made significant progress in defining exact sustainability indicators. The Blue Planet Climate Protection Foundation and the Hungarian Academy of Sciences brought together these groups by initiating and coordinating a joint research project. The participants were the Hungarian National Bank with its sustainable GDP (sGDP) project, Makron\u00f3m Institute, which developed the Harmonic Development Index (H2DI), and H\u00e9tfa Research Institute with the Sustainability Performance Framework Index (SPFI). Thanks to their joint efforts, they developed a new, integrated methodology with multiple additional benefits:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>it is capable of longitudinally assessing the key dimensions of sustainable transitions and measuring progress in specific areas;<\/li>\n<li>it utilises a sophisticated methodological framework and a comprehensive system of indicators to provide helpful guidance for policymakers;<\/li>\n<li>It transforms heterogeneous data sources into systemised information that can be direct input for political and economic policy recommendations.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The timeliness of this initiative is demonstrated by the fact that the Pact for the Future, adopted by the UN General Assembly in the autumn of 2024, also set the goal of a system that adds a sustainability dimension to the measurement of GDP.<\/p>\n<p>After one year of work, J\u00e1nos \u00c1der, the Head of the Foundation, <a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/RKBvSupvUrw?si=QJklEClQGylGPR-_\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">presented<\/a> the results at the 2024 Word Science Forum in Budapest.
