Human Flourishing is at the heart of Sir John Templeton's vision.

Templeton World Charity Foundation recently convened researchers, policymakers, and practitioners to examine what's possible for the future of human flourishing at the inaugural Global Scientific Conference on Human Flourishing, held virtually and in conjunction with in-person workshops around the world in late November 2022.

The opening address also included remarks from Heather Templeton Dill, President, John Templeton Foundation, and granddaughter of Sir John Templeton. She shared that the conference takes place during Sir John's birthday, and emphasized how human flourishing is at the heart of Sir John's vision. "Sir John said that we can help create a more meaningful and fruitful world through our thoughts, feelings, consciousness, and actions. We can reflect that inner realization of unlimited love, compassion, kindness, honesty, integrity, strength, and a sense of our purpose in life to every purpose, person, and situation in our area of experience."
