When used, sustainable happiness refers to a long-term state of well-being and satisfaction that leads to positive personal and social outcomes. Building youth resilience is essential to creating strong, adaptive, and thriving communities.

This study presents a comprehensive systematic review of quantitative, qualitative, and theoretical studies published in leading peer-reviewed management journals from 1991 to 2022, identifying 123 articles that meet its established search inclusion criteria. This study synthesizes previous research on the factors affecting sustainable well-being in young individuals and examines how it contributes to the development of resilience in the population. By identifying key determinants and interventions that promote sustainable well-being, this study aims to provide policymakers, educators, and other stakeholders with insights into developing their social capacity and enhancing youth well-being. It provides a thorough examination of existing research on sustainable happiness in youth, synthesizing findings from multiple studies. By combining data from various studies, it offers a quantitative summary of the effectiveness of sustainable happiness interventions in youth. It explores the relationship between sustainable happiness and resilience, as well as humans thriving in society, adding a new perspective to the field. The review provides practitioners and policymakers with a solid foundation for developing effective interventions promoting sustainable happiness and resilience in youth.
