The Institute, within the context of
advocating, promoting and facilitating development, change and transformation,

Research and Studies
The Institute does research
and study considering and addressing contemporary issues, persisting and growing
individual, social and environmental problems, through understanding and managing
existence and development, demands and challenges, problems and difficulties, change and
changing conditions, everything in life we face and we have to deal with, from the inside
out and from the ground up, from inside the mind and mental existence, beginning with the
individual, individual mental existence and mental development. Considering, understanding
and addressing them at the level of the natural conditions of existence, common to all
human beings, that lie behind and that are reflected in individual human experience.
Moreover, considering and understanding them in their essence, in depth and detail, in a
holistic, differentiated, but integrated, connected and related way.
Not, as traditionally is the case,
considering and understanding the issues from the top down and from the outside in, in a
fragmented, generalized, dissociated and disconnected way, in the abstract. Considering,
understanding and managing existence and development from the human-created socio-cultural
level down to the level of the natural conditions of existence. Understanding and managing
them from the social-collective, the political, economic, scientific and technological
level down to the individual. Understanding, managing and improving our existence through
understanding and managing external conditions and the world around us. Dividing and
separating existence and development, demands and challenges, problems and difficulties
into different subject matters, disciplines, fields of study and areas of human activity,
specialization and expertise, each defined and governed by competing and conflicting
assumptions, objectives, approaches and practices.
