In a world where cultural rhythms are accelerating, technology is everywhere, and many of us feel increasingly disconnected, how can we re-envision higher education as a catalyst for innovating the future of human flourishing? In facing unprecedented challenges on the the individual, communal, and global levels current models of education are inadequate and failing at generating the solutions necessary to support scale able well-being and flourishing.
