Description

Why does the world work this way? Why do humans behave as they do? Why are some things so hard or out of reach for some people? How can we make life better for everyone? The answer, after much studying, turns out to be buried within the complex systems we as humans create for ourselves. Over time we’ve slowly, inadvertently, let some of our systems continue too long, constrain too much, and become too rigid. As a result, our systems can cause a lot of pain and suffering. The solution I want to propose is a global collaborative effort to double-check and fine-tune our systems to enhance human health and well-being, rather than serving as a barrier to human thriving. Like the Scientific Method for medicine, we can use methodology to continually refine the systems we make to be more humane. We created them. We can certainly modify them to better suit our needs. And if we collectively work to move things in the same direction, we can unlock the potential in all living humans while setting future humans up for success in a healthier world.
