outreach clusters
At THRIVE, each Outreach Cluster—ranging from biodiversity and smart communities to ocean governance, social governance, and a circular economy—highlights critical aspects of environmental and social sustainability. By delving into these interconnected areas, the Outreach Clusters offer resources and insights to guide individuals, businesses, and communities in making informed decisions that contribute to a more resilient, prosperous, and balanced world. Each cluster explores specific themes, providing a deeper understanding of how we can collectively thrive.
Biodiversity & Nature
Biodiversity is a fundamental pillar of a thriving planet, essential to the health and resilience of our ecosystems. This page delves into the crucial role that the variety of species—plants, animals, and microorganisms—play in sustaining life, as viewed through the lens of the THRIVE Framework. By understanding the interconnectedness of all life forms, we can better address the cascading impacts of biodiversity loss and work towards protecting our ecosystems. Through the THRIVE Framework, we can guide actions that ensure biodiversity remains preserved, supporting a thriving planet for future generations.
Smart Communities
The Smart Communities cluster promotes a thrivable built environment by conducting research, analysing data, and raising awareness to drive meaningful change. This page explores how environmental and social considerations must be integrated to create cities and local communities that are sustainable, resilient and prosperous in the long term. Through the THRIVE Framework, the Smart Communities cluster guides individuals, homeowners, and businesses, helping them make informed decisions that reduce their environmental impact and foster thriving, livable communities for the future.
Ocean Governance
Ocean Governance plays a critical role in managing and protecting our oceans in a thrivable way. This page explores the frameworks and strategies, such as international treaties like the High Seas Treaty, aimed at addressing challenges like overfishing, pollution, and climate change impacts. Through the lens of the THRIVE Framework, it emphasises the importance of balancing ecological preservation with human activity to maintain healthy marine ecosystems and ensure the well-being of communities that depend on the ocean. With the ocean covering 70% of the Earth’s surface and absorbing 90% of the warming from greenhouse gases, effective governance is essential to address the urgent issues of ocean warming, sea level rise, and ocean acidification for a sustainable future.
Social Governance
Social Governance plays a critical role in building a thrivable society by addressing the social issues that impact both humanity and the environment. It encompasses a range of factors, including economic equality, human rights, mental well-being, and education. By examining these areas through a holistic and systemic lens, particularly with the THRIVE Framework, we can develop practical solutions to our complex challenges. This page delves into the various aspects of Social Governance, offering insights and resources to guide positive change.
Circular Economy
The transition to a circular economy is key to building a thrivable future, moving away from the wasteful linear model that encourages single-use products. This page explores how embracing a circular economy can address issues like resource depletion, biodiversity loss, and environmental pollution. Through the THRIVE Framework, we examine the regenerative, self-sustaining systems that a circular economy fosters—benefiting both people and the planet. By focusing on the principles of reducing, reusing, and recycling, we can create a closed-loop system where materials are continuously cycled, helping to regenerate nature and ensure a more sustainable, thriving world for future generations.
