Who we are

The Happier Lives Institute is a committed team of people who want to find the best ways for individuals to use their resources to make lives happier. 

​With the exception of one part-time, paid member of staff (Justus Baumann), we are a team of volunteers working to find the best ways to make others happier. We expect to transition into a small, professional organisation over time. If you would like to support this transition, please
contact us.


Our beliefs

Our thinking is driven by three beliefs:
  1. We should do the most good we can  
  2. Happiness is what ultimately matters
  3. Happiness can be measured
