| International Network on Personal Meaning |
The INPM is dedicated to advancing health,
spirituality, peace and human fulfillment through research,
education and applied psychology with a focus on the universal
human quest for meaning and purpose. We do this through articles
on meaningful living, providing a source for research on meaning
and existentialism, and information on meaning centred counselling
and therapy for students and practioners.
