Charting impact
Four powerful questions that require reflection about what really matters - results.
What is the organization aiming to accomplish?
The Mormon Transhumanist Association is an international nonprofit organization that promotes radical flourishing in compassion and creation through technology and religion, as outlined in the Transhumanist Declaration and the Mormon Transhumanist Affirmation. Although we are neither a religious organization nor affiliated with any religious organization, we support our members in their personal religious affiliations, Mormon or otherwise, and encourage them to adapt Transhumanism to their unique situations.
What are the organization's key strategies for making this happen?
The Mormon Transhumanist Association shares media, news and blogs about the intersection of Mormonism with science and technology and Transhumanism with religion and spirituality. We engage as a community in discussions and conferences about prophetic vision, scientific discovery, technological innovation, as well as opportunities and risks in our rapidly changing world. We also act with common purpose on team projects to cure disease, and extend and enhance life.
What are the organization's capabilities for doing this?
The Mormon Transhumanist Association is by far the largest organization of religious Transhumanists in the world. Our network of members and affiliation with the largest secular Transhumanist organization, Humanity+, position us to advocate for related interests more effectively than any similar organization.
What have they accomplished so far and what's next?
