1. GIIP Index Alice Lassman Rising Star’ of Indigo Prize

2. Key points Introduction to the GIIP: a measurement for every scale
Perception
Ability
Opportunity
Global Integration
Concept: Engine Economics
Examples of its use: Rwanda and Israel
Future of the metric and application

4. GIIP Index (1) = Individual Potential (0. 75) + Global Integration (0
Perception (0.25) + Opportunity (0.25) + Ability (0.25)
0.25: Global Integration

6. Perception, Opportunity, Ability
Economic standards and the state of the economy
Geographical awareness: physical limitations and world issues
Human capital: investment and success of education and skills training
Health
Political/government, within this corruption
Social: perception of minorities, women and wealth distribution
Freedoms: social, economic and political
International relations and their position in global economy

7. Hazard Perception Filter
Accounts for 10% of the Perception measure (i.e. only 1/40th of total GIIP score)
Why 10%: small proportion, further research required to evaluate this figure
Three considered as influencing factors in perception:
Political/Government
Freedoms
Human Capital
High scores in these areas result in less loss of score, while low scores disproportionately decrease the overall score.

8. Hazard Perception Filter: example
Scores: 3/10 in Political/Government
2/5 in Freedoms
4/15 for Human Capital
= 9/30
Convert to decimal: 9 ÷ 30 = 0.3
As a percentage of 10%: [(1-0.3) x 10] = 7%
The perception score, presently out of 0.25, will subtract its total score by 7%.

9. Opportunity
Economic standards: freedom to keep and earn their own money
Geography: as created by physical and human environments
Human capital: same score as social
Health: availability and fairness of healthcare provision
Political/government: effectiveness of equal laws
Social: equal opportunities for all genders, minorities and wealth
Freedoms: to practice activities that will lead to opportunity
International relations: opportunities for citizens to interact freely with other nations

10. Ability
Economic standards: ability to operate freely within a market, Index of Economic Freedom
Geography: ability to overcome the confines of Geography
Human capital: same score as social
Health: availability and fairness of healthcare provision
Political/government: effectiveness of equal laws
Social: equal opportunities for all genders, minorities and wealth
Freedoms: to practice activities that will lead to opportunity
International relations: opportunities for citizens to interact freely with other nations
