The volume engages scholars in a systematic, collective, and multi-disciplinary exercise in renaissance thinking that showcases the breadth, scope, theories, methods, and potentialities of positive communication. The volume creates new links between the field of positive communication and allied concepts/fields/agencies (e.g. John’s Hopkins University’s Center for a Livable Future). Contributions also connect the theory and practice of positive communication to the UN's 17 Sustainable Development Goals. Finally, the work showcases scholars’ design-thinking connecting positive communication topic areas to the concept of “livable futures.”
