Abstract

This report launches the Institute for Global Prosperity’s Citizen Prosperity Index for east London: a new way of conceptualising and measuring prosperity based on long-term research about the determinants of prosperity foocal communities. The Citizen Prosperity Index is a new way of measuring prosperity that reports on what matters to local communities in east London. Unlike most indicators and metrics that are decided by experts in government, universities or business, and assumed to be relevant to communities everywhere, the Citizen Prosperity Index is based on long-term qualitative research about lived experiences and local determinants of prosperity in east London. Citizen scientists worked with academic researchers to analyse and categorise the factors that people identified as essential and important for a prosperous life in east London, which were translated into the ‘prosperity model’ that underpins the Citizen Prosperity Index. The Citizen Prosperity Index is a key output from the Prosperity in east London 2021–2031 Longitudinal Study, which aims to address the gaps in academic theory and policy-relevant knowledge about how investments in urban regeneration can create equitable pathways to place-based prosperity
