Human Needs

The purpose of this channel is foster voluntary prosocial behavior. If we fail, humanity will self-destroy itself by sacrificing the long term benefit for the short term gain to get ahead in a competition to survive. Either we teach each other to behave as one global human family, a super organism, or we will mutually destroy ourselves with ever more dangerous technology. 

Either we end the self imposed competition to survive or we will mutually destroy our long term survival in the race to get ahead in the short term. 

The key is to raise awareness about fundamental human needs, that all humans share and without which we will develop pathologies, thus becoming a burden or a danger to everyone else. These fundamental needs must be explored and discovered scientifically. A first acceptable framework is that established by Manfred Max-Neef: Participation, Understanding, Freedom, Creation, Affection, Idleness, Identity, Subsistence, Protection.
