Voices of Humanity

Voices of Humanity is a project of Collective Communication, Inc. (CCI). Voices of Humanity is about finding our common humanity across all national, religious and cultural boundaries. Our aim is for human unity with both gender equality and respect for diversity built in.

The genders and generations of humanity transcend the national and religious boundaries. When we give a collective voice to women, to men, to youth and the middle-aged and seniors, each of these voices of humanity will tell us, in a kindly way, to get our act together. And we will listen!

We don’t really want to live in fear of each other and maybe blow up planet Earth. We don’t want to kill off the wild animals or use our limited resources foolishly or take dangerous chances with global warming. It’s time to cooperate and be smart. That’s what the voice of humanity-as-one will tell us in collective conversation with the genders and ages.

The Voices of Humanity software developed by CCI will empower women and girls and unite humanity on that basis. Participants add their messages in our Order Out of Chaos online discussion and then rate what others have written. Each lunar month the highest rated messages are selected from the women, the men, youth, middle-age, seniors and overall to represent humanity-as-one. Importantly, participants can easily change perspective from local to national to global.

Voices of Humanity launched at the new moon of March 8, 2016, International Women's Day. The winning messages from the Order Out of Chaos discussion can be seen here. They are on their way to the desk of Dr. Phumzile Mlambo-Ngcuka, the Executive Director of UN Women, and the de facto leader of the global women's movement.

The Voices of Humanity - Order Out of chaos discussion is now into its second round. Please go to our website to participate. You could win up to $200 for the local nonprofit of your choice.

Each month, the author of the overall winning message can designate a nonprofit to receive 100 US dollars. If the nonprofit is on our Readership List, then it will receive 200 US dollars instead.

Our aim is to achieve human unity with gender equality built in, not just to try for it or build toward it, but to actually achieve it. We have a down to earth plan that we think can work. That plan is simply to enlist local organizations for our Readership List. Each local organization that signs up will be expected to let their members know about Voices of Humanity.

Each organization that signs up will specify one or more of our twelve outreach directions: Climate Change * Gender Equality * Disadvantaged Minorities * Human Rights * Indigenous people * Interfaith Cooperation * Nuclear Disarmament * Peace * Refugees * UN Goals * Veterans * Youth. Doubtless we will expand the list as we go. For each direction there is a facility in the Voices of Humanity software to have a collective voice at each geographic level from local to global.

A global voice for veterans, for example, will be composed of the six Voices of Humanity, but restricted to participants who identify themselves as veterans. That is going to be so cool!

Because the process has gender equality built in, the women's movement is a natural supporter of Voices of Humanity. Therefore, our number one outreach direction will be to women's groups from around the world.

On the technical side, our next step will be to allow participants to hashtag themselves. For instance, if you work at Facebook or Google and want to bring in some friends who work there, too, you and your friends might add the #sv to yourselves and create a collective Voice of Silicon Valley.

Collective Communication, Inc., is looking to build a largely women's Board with a woman president come Fall 2016. If you are interested to be on the board, please contact CCI current president Roger Eaton at rogerweaton@gmail.com.
