Human Development Framework

A Human Development Framework (HDF) is a structured, systemic, and ideally empirically and scientifically grounded system of thought and practice devoted to understanding the human species, supporting Human Development, and actuating full Human Potential. A fully developed HDF provides clear, practical pathways for individual and collective transformation, ensuring that human beings grow up healthy, aligned, connected, integrated, empowered, perfect, fully realized, and capable of transforming themselves and this planet's systems.

Notes

The Lightning Path provides the Lightning Path Human Development Framework.

The above listed HDFs are just a sample. More may exist, for example the following "psychedelic churches" may have been founded as part of a strategy of understanding and facilitating human development, or some aspect of it (i.e., spirituality). "the League for Spiritual Discovery (LSD), founded by Dr. Timothy Leary; the Neo-American Church, founded by psychologist Arthur Kleps; the Native American Church, established more than 50 years ago by the American Indians; and the Church of the Awakening, founded by two physicians, Drs. John and Louisa Aiken."^[1] Whether or not these could be considered actual frameworks (or nascent frameworks perhaps) or were just stabs in the dark, is an open question.

Note there was a lot of scholarly activity in the 1960s that could reasonably be labelled under the category "A growing concern for human development" or something similar. Definitely an untapped research area, hint hint.
