| dc.description | <html> <head> <title></title> </head> <body> <p>Asia's rapid GDP growth masks severe costs, including displacement, environmental depletion, and high inequality. A shift beyond GDP is essential, and alternatives must be feminist, ecologically just, and decolonial. While Asia explores wellbeing metrics, most merely complement GDP, failing to challenge the growth paradigm or address systemic injustices fundamentally. True transformation requires an equity- and justice-oriented approach that dismantles the political economy maintaining GDP dominance. Current "beyond GDP" metrics in Asia lack the political power to fundamentally challenge the growth-first agenda, often failing to capture intersectional inequalities or systemic environmental destruction. This paper highlights pathways for building alliances with feminist movements that embed transformative alternatives in the region.</p> </body> </html> | en_US |
