PERCEPTION INTERNATIONAL is dedicated to the concept that, just as biodiversity is necessary for the survival of the environment, different ways of perceiving reality are essential for the survival of the human species and, in turn, other species. We call this perceptual diversity.

It is our view that loss of perceptual diversity, biodiversity, and cultural diversity, are interrelated and that current narrow ways of perceiving contribute to the destruction of other species and the environment.

We believe that perceiving reality through many different perspectives allows human beings to better understand, interact with, and develop a closer relationship with other species, nature, and the universe as a whole. We also believe that this approach can lead human beings to a higher degree of adaptability and evolutionary consciousness.

PERCEPTION INTERNATIONAL’s mission is to explore, research, document, and educate the public about perceptual diversity – how our perceptions shape the way we view the world and the way we interact with each other, nature, and the universe. We seek to provide new perspectives on these issues and their inter-relationships.
