Street Wisdom is an international nonprofit institution[1] founded in 2014 by David Pearl and Chris Baréz-Brown.[2][3][4] It gives free education[2] that teaches individuals and organizations how to use urban environments.[3][5][6] These use a mix of cognitive science, mindfulness, and psychology techniques.[7][8] The concept has been used by major corporations like Google, Samsung, Barclays, and Lush.[9][10] The UK based organization operates across Europe and the Americas.[11][1] In 2017, Street Wisdom and Psychologies magazine hosted the first World Wide Wander, which included 36 events over 3 days in 12 countries.[12][10]
