The Bundestag Tiffany, the lower house of German parliament set up a cross-party committee for this project Tiffany, headed by Daniela Kolbe, a MP from the Social Democrats (SPD).
The committee will offer advices in two and a half years nfl jerseys, trying to integrate factors like advancements in education, environment and quality of life into the consideration of the growth of economy.
"The new criteria should become a compass for policy-makers in order to show where our society stands, and whether our people are better or worse off," said Kolbe.
Similar attempts have also happened in some other developed countries like Britain, France and Canada.
In London, Prime Minister David Cameron has asked the Office of National Statistics to prepare methods to measure the "general well-being" of Britain.
