About the Inclusive Abundance Initiative:
Abundance is a new and growing movement to foster a more vibrant economy with widespread flourishing.
The Inclusive Abundance Initiative is a nonpartisan, nonprofit organization building a dynamic community of notable policy experts, think tanks, and advocacy groups to shape America's future through an Abundance-focused agenda. In the coming year, we are excited to make progress on housing, energy, innovation, and state capacity. We also believe in the power of diverse ideas and inclusive dialogue to create policies that not only drive progress but also unify and strengthen our nation.
Public policy has been stuck in a scarcity mindset that says if someone wins, someone else must lose. That we should give in to the depressing polarization dominating our news cycles and accept a status quo where we cease to dream big. The result? Too many Americans are left behind. We can do better. By convening world-class experts, changing the narrative, and amplifying impactful new ideas, we’re reimagining what’s possible.
