ISHK is dedicated to cross-cultural understanding and to bringing important research on human nature to the general public. ISHK takes a multi-disciplinary approach to the questions of who we are, where we came from, and what we might become. Our programs and publications highlight contributions from contemporary psychology, education, anthropology, medicine, evolutionary biology, neuroscience, and ecology — & from traditional systems of knowledge & learning with ancient roots. ISHK’s publishing & educational programs have contributed to important shifts in public attitudes & policies. It is our hope that the development of these ideas will help secure a future where humanity can unite around a common higher perspective & provide the information we need to advance human potential.
