Global People Project
What is Global People Project?
Global People Project (GPP) asks people around the world questions that touch on themes such as happiness, anger, kindness, violence, hope, war and the future.
Using our Thought Map’s video content you can explore the spectrum of thinking around the globe through selections you make of places, people and questions.
Global People Project is a not-for-profit organization, that has been created and is being realized by voluntary contributions.
What’s next for Global People Project?
We’re adding new people and places to the Thought Map and are developing the visual abilities of our work for you to explore patterns in thought around the world through the Thought Map.
We’re creating a community that’s connected to Global People Project, so please submit your e-mail address in the box at the top of the page and we can keep you in touch with us as more people, places and visualised connections go live. For more info about GPP check out the About page.

We hope that you enjoy this simple beginning to our work on-line.
