	Our implicit agreement We are all human beings
	Allegiance to human life
	Although it is quite obvious that we are all human beings, we currently bestow uncritical allegiance to our deeply cherished differences (such as race, sex, religion, vocation, culture and nationality). It is mostly through these differences that our lives are defined, and our hopes are either realized or dashed. Too often, sole reliance on our differences leads to alienation, distrust and violence. Do we not also owe allegiance to human life? What opportunities may emerge if we begin to live our lives out of our universal human agreement?

"There lies before us, if we choose; continual progress in happiness, knowledge and wisdom. Shall we, instead choose death, because we cannot forget our quarrels?"
- Bertrand Russell

A working
hypothesis:

We humans are heirs to a uniquely powerful agreement which could optimize every aspect of our lives - in every part of the world.
Our implicit (frequently forgotten) agreement that we are all human beings is the bedrock reality and primary resource of our lives.
By building on our agreement that we are all humans, we can begin to secure and make whole our lives, property and environments throughout the world.

Testing the hypothesis -
making our unique human
agreement
universally explicit
and operative

World Public Forum has undertaken a worldwide inquiry into our life-affirming hypothesis with the circulation of the Declaration of Human Unity and development of the Human Unity Project. The Declaration has been signed and the Project supported by hundreds of distinguished public-spirited leaders from scientific, political, religious, economic, entertainment and media communities worldwide..

We hereby declare our unity as human
beings beyond all our differences.
from the "Declaration of Human Unity"

Benefits flowing
from a human-
focused way of life

Stepping out from the bedrock of human agreement, we will begin to reveal and explore the inherent wholeness hidden beneath the fragmented climate of modern life.

In this process, we will also begin to:

Integrate our differences and institutions into the human of our lives.
Restore and renew the ability of our
institutions to serve our needs.
Redirect trillions of dollars now lost
because of our disagreements and fears of each other.
Harmonize and deepen our relationship
with the earth.

A scenario for
Human Wholeness

We live our lives out of our divided identities rather than as human beings. In a human-focused world, our divided identities will become precious contributions integral with the whole and promise of our lives. This has never happened before. We are in uncharted territory. The following is a human-focused scenario for a reasoned construction and wholeness of our lives on Earth.

1. Contact public-spirited journalists, entertainers and others who will bring the message of Human Unity to the world.

2. Report, celebrate and, in every effective way, awaken all humans to the crucial security and incomparable fulfillment advantages of human agreement, unity and wholeness.

3. Facilitate all people in addressing their disagreements with the unique resource of their foundational human agreement.

4. Conduct a human priorities survey throughout the world to document our shared human concerns.

5. Implement a global agenda to optimize our lives, property and environments throughout the world, our most beautiful and precious home where we all must live.

do right now?
