𝗕𝗔𝗖𝗞𝗚𝗥𝗢𝗨𝗡𝗗: HOMES FOR HUMANITY PROGRAMME WHY do we need ‘Homes for Humanity’ at the present time on Earth? All our homes have the potential to become launchpads for human, ecological, cultural, and economic renewal, especially in this time of global emergency. Today the world over, our societies have become divided, our communities separated, our social distance widened. The COVID pandemic has exacerbated human isolation, confusion and frustration. Yet it has also accelerated the awakening of human consciousness, conscience and commitment to transformation. But ‘how on earth’ can we transform our planet’s acute present condition of uprootedness, homelessness, and dispossession into ‘a home on earth’ for all life? An important key lies in our own homes. Homes for Humanity are a simple yet transformative means to ensure that every one of us can contribute to the rise of a just and regenerative Earth Civilisation from the foundation of our own home, however modest it may be, while fulfilling our unique calling and commitment. Even in our changing times, with COVID and social distancing, Homes for Humanity provide a safe and regenerative way to weave a renewed fabric of care and engagement in our fragmented societies. As Homes for Humanity, connecting across continents, transcending borders and ideologies, we can jointly lay the foundation for an inclusive earth civilization. Home for Humanity is a global vision and alliance of pioneering changemakers on all continents committed to co-creating a just, inclusive and regenerative Earth Civilization for all life. Its mission and programmes are based on the Humanity Charter.

Vielen Dank für die Initiative und Sichtbarkeit der Menschen in Sekem. Ich bin berührt und gespannt ob sich die neue Vision von der Ökonomie der Liebe in der Tat in einem größeren gesellschaftlichen Zusammenhang entwickeln wird. Besonders gefreut hat mich, meine Kindergärtnerin Frau Hanel in diesem Video wieder zu sehen. Einen herzlichen Gruß!
Thank you for the initiative and visibility of the people in Sekem. I am touched and curious if the new vision of the economy of love will indeed develop in a larger social context. I was especially happy to see my kindergarten teacher Mrs. Hanel again in this video. A warm greeting!
