Theory of Change
At Flourish51, our inspiration stems from the pioneering field of positive psychology (aka the science of human flourishing) whose leaders issued a bold aspiration to achieve a world where at least 51% of the population is not just surviving, but truly flourishing by 2051. This audacious goal is the cornerstone of Flourish51’s Theory of Change:
If communities have access to life’s essentials, systems uphold equity and human rights, and individuals achieve holistic health, then societies will flourish as thriving, equitable, and healthy ecosystems.
