Stakeholder Relations:

Human Science Professionals

The Humaneering Institute strives to consider the goals and concerns of its stakeholders, including professionals working in any of the human sciences (e.g., anthropologists, psychologists, sociologists). Humaneering is a transdisciplinary technology informed largely by the human sciences. Human science professional will readily identify with some of humaneering's principles and methods.

If you are a human science professional, we invite you to influence the Institute's development and diffusion of humaneering technology through your guidance, participation, and support.

Guidance

• Make a suggestion
  We are interested in hearing your ideas. Use the provided electronic form to make a suggestion. Your suggestion can be anonymous, or you can provide us with you email address so we can respond, potentially with feedback on how we are going to use your idea.

Participation

• Review posted development needs
  Commencing in 2010, the Institute will expand on its practice of privately soliciting human science professionals for humaneering development process support. In January, we will begin posting select open calls for design panel participants, field project professionals, case study developers, and other assignments, including both volunteer, grant-supported, and paid roles. Please check monthly for new postings.


• Become a humaneering technology instructor
  The Humaneering Institute is in need of humaneering technology instructors for executive, professional, and practitioner level instruction and for an even wider range of speaking engagements. Human science professionals (e.g., anthropologists, psychologists, sociologists, and related professionals) will likely find humaneering technology easy to grasp and teach, and are invited to learn more about this role and express their interest. Curriculum, training, materials, and clients will be provided.


• Become a humaneering technology consultant
  The Humaneering Institute is in need of humaneering-trained consultants for work on field experiment teams, which combine scholars and consultants for action research field trials of humaneering technology. These assignments qualify as supervised experience toward professional licensure. People with humaneering experience are invited to learn more about this role and express their interest. Full-time and contract positions are available.


• Become a Founder of the Humaneering Institute
  If you see yourself as an pioneer or trend setter, then you should become an Institute Founder. For a financial contribution of at least US$40, you will participate significantly in the Institute's founding, and will begin receiving timely information on the inner workings of the Institute. This is a meaningful way to participate in the development and diffusion of humaneering technology, and a great way to identify a variety of additional opportunities for your participation in the months ahead.

Support

• Contribute to the Science Education Fund
  Help prepare future generations of the world's children to use humaneering technology. Your contribution of any amount will support the Institute's development and free distribution of course materials on humaneering technology for primary and secondary school students.


• Contribute to the Books for Libraries Fund
  The Books for Libraries Fund provides at no cost two copies of all Institute printed materials requested by public libraries anywhere in the world. Your gift of any amount to this Fund will enable the Institute to provide books to more libraries.

Please determine if any other stakeholder groups apply to you, as our suggestions vary by stakeholder group.
