Humankind

101 posts Humankind is a project we ran from August 2020 to May 2023, to challenge the assumption that human beings are inherently selfish and competitive. It’s a collection of 100 stories of ordinary people doing extraordinary things, from every corner of the planet, and our antidote to celebrity culture. These people go under the radar, unnoticed, sometimes for years or even decades before recognition. We believe they showcase the best of what it means to be human.
