Summary: What is flourishing and how do we measure and promote it? How are the IDGs connected? In this track, participants will learn about how the research being conducted around the world by scholars and affiliates at the Human Flourishing Program has addressed these questions. Participants will have multiple opportunities to self-assess their own flourishing and discuss their experiences with this inspiring concept in small-group breakout rooms. These conversations will be informed by brief presentations about several of the Program’s current projects, including philosophical reflection on the core flourishing domain of meaning and the promotion of inner development and flourishing through education.
