The Institute of Development Studies (IDS), in collaboration with the School for Progressive Futures, is proud to host a landmark seminar titled "Researching Progressive Futures: Generating Human Flourishing." This session is part of a flagship series designed to challenge traditional development paradigms by centering the concept of "flourishing" as the primary metric for global progress.
Set within the world-renowned academic environment of the IDS campus in Brighton, this event brings together leading researchers, policy analysts, and doctoral students to explore how interdisciplinary research can foster environments where individuals and communities thrive. The seminar will delve into the intersection of social justice, environmental sustainability, and economic resilience. Participants will engage with cutting-edge methodologies used by IDS researchers to track qualitative improvements in wellbeing across diverse geopolitical contexts.
The session will open with a keynote presentation followed by a curated panel discussion featuring experts in international development. A significant portion of the event is dedicated to a "Knowledge Exchange" session, where the IDS Library’s extensive archives and digital resources will be highlighted as tools for contemporary research. This is a unique opportunity to network with global thought leaders and gain insights into the future of international policy and grassroots activism. Whether you are looking to refine your research focus or understand the shifting landscape of global development, this seminar provides the critical space for such intellectual evolution.
