The core purpose of this initiative is to stimulate progress on the scientific study of wisdom - its nature, cultivation, benefits, and applications. The Wisdom Website is the hub of an electronic network and a central resource for the study of wisdom. The interdisciplinary Wisdom Research Network connects the Project Council, researchers, as well as other individuals and networks discovered over the course of this initiative, to a collaborative network of scholars and scientists working to promote new discoveries on the nature and benefits of wisdom. A scholarly, edited volume of this research is anticipated.
