Human Flourishing: What if?
What does it mean to truly thrive? Not just survive, but live a life that is rooted, growing, and fully alive? Trilith Foundation believes that flourishing is possible for everyone and that it grows best in community. This page is your starting point.
What is Human Flourishing?
Flourishing is more than happiness. It is the state in which all aspects of a person's life are going well — mentally, physically, spiritually, relationally, and creatively including the contexts and communities in which a person lives.
Drawing on the groundbreaking Global Flourishing Study, a $43.4 million, five-year research initiative spanning 200,000 people across 22 countries, Trilith Foundation has developed a suite of resources to help you explore, understand, and practice human flourishing in your everyday life.
Our work is grounded in the research of the Global Flourishing Study
The Global Flourishing Study is a landmark initiative led by the Baylor Institute of Global Human Flourishing and Harvard University's Human Flourishing Program, in partnership with Gallup and the Center for Open Science.
