The documents discuss the multi-dimensional impact accounting (MDIA) framework, which aims to provide a more holistic view of the impacts of economic activity beyond just financial measures. The framework recognizes that the ultimate purpose of economic activity is to improve people's quality of life. It considers impacts on various types of capital - financial, human, manufactured/built systems, and natural. All economic activity and decisions involve tradeoffs that impact these different forms of capital and therefore people in various ways. The MDIA framework seeks to provide a more complete accounting of these impacts.
