Mission
To incubate projects that promise to expand Human Respect in the world.
Approach
We make modest investments in small group projects that promise to advance the philosophy of human respect through creativity, innovation, and entrepreneurship.
Small successes can then be built upon.
We're creating HUMAN RESPECT LABS to incubate and test these low-cost, scalable, mission-aligned projects.
Through this approach, we shift funding away from top-heavy institutions to direct support for individuals and project teams. We use Requests for Proposals (RFPs) and a general PHR rolling requests to discover promising yet overlooked teams and projects.
By making early investments, keeping failures low-cost, and refining through frequent iteration, we transition from grand plans to small testable hypotheses.
Commitment
The Philosophy of Human Respect boils down to a single commitment:
To promote happiness, harmony, and prosperity, I will neither initiate violence against others nor diminish their property through theft, fraud, or destruction.
Instead of politics, policy, and punditry, those committed to our philosophy innovate, create, and build things that help people live in freedom and peace.
A project of the Foundation for Harmony and Prosperity.
