Bonheur et Philanthropie : quels sont les liens entre générosité et bien-être?

Avec Dr. Charles Sellen

 

Février 2024

Université d'Ottawa

 

Le bonheur fait l'objet d'une littérature scientifique abondante depuis 50 ans.  Des recherches pluridisciplinaires examinent notamment les liens entre bien-être et altruisme. Quelles sont les implications pour mieux comprendre la philanthropie d'aujourd'hui et favoriser son essor à l'avenir?

 

  • Comprendre que le bonheur est un sujet scientifique sérieux.
  • Approcher la philanthropie sous un angle original et novateur.
  • Observer les liens entre générosité et altruisme.
  • Identifier des clés pour développer la philanthropie à l’avenir.

 

Dr. Charles Sellen est chercheur sur la philanthropie affilié au réseau PhiLab (UQAM, Montréal) et enseigne à Carleton University (Ottawa) dans le Master in Philanthropy and Nonprofit Leadership.

Il s’est spécialisé en philanthropie depuis la rédaction d’un rapport sur les fondations américaines à l’Ambassade de France à Washington (2004). Docteur en économie (Sciences Po Paris, 2012), il a collaboré à Paris au Centre d’études et de recherches sur la philanthropie (CerPhi, 2013-2014) et à l’Agence française de développement (2014-2019). Il a été administrateur puis président (2011-2018) de La Fabrique Spinoza, premier réservoir d’idées (think tank) francophone sur le bonheur et le bien-être citoyen. Lauréat du programme Fulbright « NGO Leaders », il a été invité comme « Inaugural Global Philanthropy Fellow » à la Lilly Family School of Philanthropy à Indianapolis (2019-2021). Installé à Ottawa depuis 2023, il mobilise aujourd'hui cette expertise internationale en tant que conseiller auprès de différents acteurs philanthropiques (fondations, ONG, philanthropes, entreprises, institutions).
