Center for Humans and Nature

Asking questions, inspiring change. Think Here. www.humansandnature.org

Our mission is to explore and promote human responsibilities in relation to nature - the whole community of life.

We’re a group of engaged and curious thinkers who understand that ideas matter.

The Center for Humans and Nature partners with some of the brightest minds in ethical thinking to explore humans and nature relationships. We bring together philosophers, biologists, ecologists, lawyers, political scientists, anthropologists, and economists to think creatively about how people can make better decisions — in relationship with each other and the rest of nature.

With the Center’s network of Senior Scholars, Contributors, and Fellows, we’re working to foster a culture that puts ethical thinking at the core of decision-making. The Center for Humans and Nature connects people with ideas through big Questions, ongoing Projects, our journal Minding Nature, and special events.

Across the world, people are striving for fairer and resilient economies, truly democratic cultures, and healthy, thriving communities. The Center offers ideas on how transforming humanity’s relationship with nature can inform our responses to these interconnected challenges.

You can help by weighing in with your thoughts and contributing to our growing community of thinkers focused on creating a better world for people and for all of nature.
