The following pages are documentation from the Scandinavian H(app)athon workshop arranged
in March 20th, 2013 - the official UN Day of Happiness.
The main objective of the workshop was to develop ideas that can be used as an input for the
further project of how to measure happiness.
This was done bye arranging an idea development process, where the participants discussed
and developed ideas of how to improve wellbeing and happiness in the land of Eudamonia.
The workshop was arranged in Oslo, from 5 p.m. to 9 p.m. including one coffee break.
There were 18 participants, who were divided into four teams. The attendees were a mix of busi-
ness executives, students, employees and public stakeholders. Everyone was carefully selected
and handpicked through our personal and professional network. The common denominator was
that all of them are above average interested in and understand the consequences of a positive
attitude and care about their environment.
