The science of broadening participation explains how science thrives with appropriate frameworks for addressing complex issues. This article presents a developmental framework for equitable STEM scholar development, access, and opportunity. Few issues in academia are more complex than ensuring all scholars can thrive without unwarranted obstacles of intentional disruption or benign indifference. The Thrive Mosaic developmental framework coalesces the best elements of a scholar's networks to support scholar development, advocacy, and self-care, while also working to forestall systemic marginalization and obstructionist practices. The framework uses a systems thinking approach where aspects of the ecology of academia important to scholar success are conceptualized as systems that can be adapted to benefit the scholar and support scholar activism. The goal is to mitigate environmental internal and external factors that impede scholar success. Thrive Mosaic is both a resource and a tool for realizing scholar thriving, particularly within privileged and noncollegial environments.
