Wales has a unique piece of legislation that also guides decisions. The Wellbeing of Future Generations Act tells us that future generations have a right to help decide the decisions we make today.

It sets seven big goals for Wales to be a happier, healthier, and more fair place. https://www.futuregenerations.wales/

  • A Prosperous Wales - A country where everyone can get good jobs.
  • A Resilient Wales - A country that can deal with problems like climate change.
  • A Healthier Wales - A country where everyone can live a healthy life.
  • A More Equal Wales - A country where everyone has the same chances.
  • A Wales of Cohesive Communities - A country where communities are strong and friendly.
  • A Wales of Vibrant Culture and Thriving Welsh Language - A country that celebrates its culture and language.
  • A Globally Responsible Wales - A country that cares about people and the planet all around the world.

Some of the hard decisions we make now - like not building more roads - is so we can reach these goals in the future.
