Planet Happiness is an investment in planet management. Using the Happiness Alliance’s 15 minute state of the art on-line Happiness Index we aim to: Highlight and strengthen the relationship between tourism and the wellbeing of host communities. Deliver a high impact media campaign that raises global awareness and participation in the Gross National Happiness (GNH) and Beyond GDP agenda.

How happy are host communities in heritage sites? What can be done to preserve heritage sites and increase the happiness of host communities? How can host communities in heritage sites use data about their own happiness to safeguard their well-being and the sustainability of their heritage site? What can visitors to World Heritage sites do to strengthen the happiness of destination communities?
