Be a Hero for a Better World

There is so much going on all around us for a better world.
Many diverse movements for change have been converging
into a more holistic, global movement for a better world.
This emerging movement does not belong to any one group or organization,
but together we are helping create a more peaceful, just and sustainable world,
one act of compassion at a time.
Every act of compassion makes a differenceConnect with others and help grow the Better World.Do you wish for a better world? You are not alone!Humanism for a better world.As a life stance rooted in rational thinking, modern Humanism provides a way of understanding our universe in naturalistic rather than in supernatural terms. It offers men and women, both as individuals and as members of society, a secular ethics grounded in human values.
Drawing inspiration from their rationalist and freethinking heritage, Humanists reject absolute authorities and revealed wisdoms. Humanists consider human experience to be the only source of knowledge and ethics. Humanists believe in intellectual integrity, and do not allow custom to replace conscience. Humanists promote free inquiry which is the basis of the scientific spirit; and as a living philosophy, Humanism constantly enriches itself with the progress of knowledge.
Guided by the spirit of human solidarity, Humanists are committed to tolerant pluralism and human rights. As Humanism is also a philosophy of human freedom, Humanists aim for a social order in which individual freedom and dignity, social justice, fundamental rights and the rule of civilised law are protected. Humanists continuously explore ways of extending responsible freedom and happiness in our increasingly complex world.
The social ideal of Humanism is the spread of democratic values resulting in comprehensive social, political and economic democracy. Humanists believe that this can be achieved only with the strength of humanity's own moral and intellectual resources.
Humanism seeks to be a modern, cosmopolitan and democratic alternative to traditional religion and to authority and other oppressive social attitudes.
