Humanity & the Biosphere

Responding to the human predicament.

We believe all citizens of the world should have the opportunity and empowerment to engage with the pressing challenges our society faces.

Engaging Leaders

We welcome all of progressive civil society into the conversation on the human predicament – seeking to unite under-represented voices with established experts and leaders in the field.

Fighting for Biodiversity & Humanity

The MAHB is a grassroots effort providing a central meeting place for individuals and groups concerned about the greatest challenges of our times; loss of biodiversity, climate change, overpopulation, global toxification and an economic system dependent on growth.

Equity & Justice

Promoting equity and justice in our world is fundamental to solving the human predicament.

An initiative of Stanford University,

The MAHB provides information about this global challenge, solicits new voices, offers opportunities for members to form working groups and discussion fora, and interact with a diverse community committed to ameliorating the threats to humanity.
