WHO ARE MUTUAL RESPONSIBILITY
Mutual Responsibility is a community and growing network of like-minded people determined to promote the value of mutual responsibility to the center of public discourse.
MR was founded by “Humanity Integrated Co.” a nonprofit corporation that is dedicated to developing, implementing, and promoting methods of integral education based on principles of mutual responsibility as the means for solving social, economic, environmental and other problems of the modern society.
We are convinced that only a shift in values holds the key to solving our challenges and is the foundation for a healthy, prosperous, and sustainable society in today’s interconnected world.
The Mutual Responsibility community has grown to become a diverse network of people from all walks of life, beyond any differences of race, creed or nationality.
There are many social organizations working across the globe. We welcome all of them and invite anyone who is concerned about the current situation to sit together as equals and join a round table discourse on the important social change taking place these days.
WHY MUTUAL RESPONSIBILITY
Today’s world is at a crossroads. Economic instability, political failure, and social unrest are spreading through continents. In parallel, the world is becoming increasingly interconnected and interdependent.
While interdependence is rapidly becoming a fact of life, our social values and way of thinking are still locked in the old, self-centered paradigm. The discord between interdependence, on the one hand, and self-centeredness, on the other hand, brings about crises in many areas of human engagement.
Therefore, sustainable solutions to the crises facing society today must entail more than laws and regulations. To adapt to the emerging conditions, we must create a new social environment that will allow us to embrace our mutual dependence, rather than repel it, and develop mutual responsibility that will become reflected in our culture, society, politics, economy, in every aspect of human life.
WHAT WE DO
The Roundtable Live project – a discussion platform for a wide spectrum of socially conscious people: activists, scholars, artists, educators, public officials and everyday citizens. It is a model for how we can all sit around the table as equals and look for how to build a just, healthy and sustainable society.
The Roundtable Live events take place in various locations throughoutNorth Americaand are broadcast online at: mutualresponsibility.org/roundtable
Website and Virtual Environment – the Mutual Responsibility website (mutualresponsibility.org) and Facebook page (facebook.com/mutualresponsibility) are dynamically updated with clips, podcasts, and reading materials. They offer insights into the nature of the change we are going through as a society from the perspective of education, economics, science, culture and more.
We see the virtual environment as a viable alternative to mainstream media sources, and work to expand the Mutual Responsibility community online as a way to inspire social change.
Lectures & Courses – We develop lectures and study programs for communities and organizations interested in learning more about the principles of mutual responsibility, and how they can apply them in their day-to-day environment.

MR is totally “on message” to the deep concern of many in the world today, young & old! Your descriptors are not unique to the north American way of life, it is a message well understood and accepted by an ever increasing number. Whilst the superficial “god of materialism” has prevailed in our societies our conscience and spirit is also being awoken. People in all European and some South American countries as well as those “down under” view the hollowness of (almost) everyday existence as deafening . Perspective..In all of this mind confusion and what many seem to be unable to grasp and integrate, is the notion of the inevitability of life’s end. That fearful word “death” is rarely confronted in the normal every day sequence of events…in fact the silly quest for eternal life seems to be the norm and pre occupation of many?? When we can begin to grasp,accept,integrate this inevitability (of death) for ourselves and those we love we may start to view life, our behaviour , our toys, our quest for things and happiness differently…in fact the world and the criticality of MUTUAL RESPONSIBILTY inter dependent ness may also change…”we know so much yet understand so little.”
I will he happy to assist the group
I love it… I am interested in this I love to work as a team… I am hungry about your organization…
I was walking through Harvard Square yesterday and was offered a brochure.

It was the interconnectedness brochure

I like what you have to say. It is a good message. We are responsible to each other in order for thumanity and the earth to survive. It took billions of years for the evolution of this earth and from the dust of stars we are created. We need to work together to stop the world’s demise in wars between ourselves. The US spends more money on wars than education. We need to peacefully struggle to end these wars in nonviolent battles. I am not a Christian, but I feel the martyrdom of Christ and his early followers won the hearts and minds of ordinary Romans. That his nonviolent example as well as Gandhi, Martin Luther King, Caesar Chavez along with hundreds of small hunger strikes, sit-ins, and demonstrations win battles that are retarding the headlong freefall into self destruction.
Hi Forte 🙂
“man” as an “human/mankind” – that’s what we meant 🙂 But it probably won’t hurt to accommodate your request if humanity sounds more pleasant to your ears 🙂 Thanks for the prompt!

I really like what you are all about and want to be more involved.
Perhaps you could change the last word of the “about us” to Humanity instead of man??
Cheers, Forte.
