What if  business could be a practice ground for a more thrivable world?

SCROLL DOWN TO SEE HOW

Join us.

Much of the world is waking up to the need for a profoundly different approach to every sector and every realm of society. Wherever people are gathered, there is an emergent longing for change that is generative – bringing something new into being, creating a preferred future – and even for change that is regenerative, healing what has been wounded in our communities, our ecologies and ourselves by the structures we have inherited.

But it's often unclear what "regenerative" really means, what you should do, and how it relates to what you're already doing.
In response, Thrivable World brings together clear, unifying perspectives, effective practices and tools, and comprehensive guidance for those who support system change.

We are a practitioner community, a learning ecology and an action research collective dedicated to cultivating organizations, projects and communities as vital practice grounds for a more thrivable world.

Join us in co-creating a world that works for all life. Everything is at stake. And so much more is possible.

Why thrivability?

In most contexts today, our society aims for something far less than supporting life's ability to thrive. And as a result, we're getting something catastrophically less than thriving. If we don't make enabling life to thrive our explicit intention, we'll never get there.

With that intention, we can find guidance in Life's Universal Design Principles and a range of related frameworks and tools. And we can engage in the individual and collective practice of stewarding life wherever we find it, and we find it everywhere. 

It turns out that nothing could be more practical and effective. And nothing could be more important.

About
Thrivable World

Thrivable World has grown out of the body of work developed by Michelle Holliday, author of the highly acclaimed book, The Age of Thrivability: Vital Perspectives and Practices for a Better World.

With influence from insightful colleagues, skillful collaborators, and courageous clients over the past quarter century, Michelle's frameworks and approaches have offered inspiration and guidance across a wide range of sectors and around the world. Here, they form a foundation on which multiple perspectives and approaches can be seen in new light, connected in new ways, and applied to even more potent effect.

With these as our starting point, Thrivable World is shaped by a core group of stewards, contributors and collaborators dedicated to propagating the practice of thrivability and regeneration around the world.
