Resilient, adaptive lives are lives lived more fully human.


The human animal has been, and can be again, a consummate catalyst of ecosystem health. A true keystone species, taking good care of its place on Earth.

We are humans and we are full of such potential.

And yet the modern cultures that currently dominate the world actively suppress the human spirit. Our cultures and systems do not support our humanity, and threaten to overwhelm our habitat, our ecological home. We have reached crisis point, and a response is needed—not to rescue our civilisations and perpetuate their terminal trajectory, but to recover our core nature.

We can remake the human presence on Earth, and regenerate our home.

WHAT IS WE ARE HUMANS PROJECT?


It's a Social Enterprise, and a social experiment.

It's an experiment in the power of design thinking, cultural insight and ecological literacy to address our common core needs at a dangerous—and transformative—time of human history. We know, for example, that climate resilience and more meaningful lives can be made with the same work. The practices we want to share with you—gleaned from the fields of living design theory, systems change, regenerative design, cultural studies, and cultural evolution—are capable of this kind of holistic, integrated transformation. Can we go ever deeper and design, in this way, for the unfold of human potential, in the same process as taking ecological responsibility?

It's an experiment in finding our unique human paths into a future of great unknowns. To uncover our sense of agency, develop our regenerative capacities, navigate complexity, and create true and beautiful responses to hard questions.

And if this can happen, can our collective care, our design intelligence and our human grace find a path to resilient community, in the face of climate change and other deep stressors? A path to true regeneration of watersheds, forests, oceans and coasts? Can we contribute to the generation of more beautiful, more sane, more humane culture?

In the end, it's a journey of discovery. We don't know what we'll find, but we're committed to going.

You are invited to come along.
