Thrivability

Thrivability is the topic under which Jean M. Russell is filed in Kyle’s notes — surfaced as a single link-only research pointer in a May 16th, 2018 Roam daily-note, tying together Russell’s LinkedIn, her site jeanmrussell.com, a P2P Foundation “100 Women in P2P” profile, and Twitter. The note poses one framing question: whether Thrivability connects to Kyle’s The New City / City Building thinking. Its placement in the peer-to-peer / commons-oriented P2P Foundation circle is the lens through which the pointer was saved — a saved lead for city-building research rather than an attested concept Kyle has worked through.

Context: “Thrivability” is a term coined and popularized by Jean Russell for designing systems that thrive — generative and flourishing — rather than merely surviving or being “sustainable.” It circulates in peer-to-peer, commons, and regenerative-design communities.
