Sussex Centre for Research on Kindness

Description

The Sussex Centre for Research on Kindness brings together an interdisciplinary team of academics and diverse community partners to explore, investigate, and illuminate kindness and its impacts on people and communities.

The work of Sussex Kindness Research broadly fits within two main themes: research intending to understand the nature and impact of kindness, and research on specific kindness interventions designed to promote wellbeing. These themes have important connections with each other, and they both inform and are informed by theoretical advances across multiple disciplines.

More specifically,

• Kindness, relationships and wellbeing: basic and applied research to understand the nature of kindness and how it is connected with social relationships and wellbeing.
• Kindness interventions: qualitative and quantitative research investigations of specific strategies that are designed to promote kindness.
