Positive Psychology, the “science and practice of improving wellbeing' is an area of research in academic psychology.
Spanning a vast array of topics including flourishing, meaning, strengths and positive relationships and it recognises the inevitability of difficult and challenging circumstances across the lifespan and their role in human development.
As the Positive Psychology Association of Luxembourg, we strive to make positive psychology accessible to a wider audience in Luxembourg and the Greater Region.
We are a non-profit association founded in 2019. Our aim is to share knowledge and research on positive psychology with all who have an interest in the subject.
We aim to promote the application of positive psychology in practice, e.g. in coaching, counselling and psychotherapy, leadership, teamwork and business, and in education.
We do hope you will join us.
