“The world is one country and humanity its citizens.”
I’m Joel, and together with Yuliia, Daniel, Krzysztof, Zakaria, Shannon, Phoebe, Jonas, Muhammad, Karen, Imaan, Patricia, Daiki, Eugene, Olga, Aanu, and countless others, we are turning 10 Billion into the change we all want to see in the world.
10 Billion was born from a simple yet profound realization: people everywhere share a common vision for our future. From the bustling streets of Tokyo to the serene villages of the Yucatan, from global forums to conversations with grandmothers in rural Ethiopia, we discovered a universal vision:.
- A world free from war, nuclear threats, and existential risks.
- A stable climate with clean air and water for future generations.
- A society where everyone can meet their basic needs and realize their full potential.
- Protection against pandemics and biological threats.
- Technology that serves humanity while mitigating AI risks.
- Universal respect for rights, dignity, and freedoms.
What’s truly remarkable is that these aspirations are shared by people everywhere, regardless of their background. Yet, many haven’t realized how aligned our visions for the future truly are. Most people have not travelled abroad.
Our mission is to spread this shared vision globally, building consensus across borders to drive unprecedented cooperation. As digital natives with global networks, 10 Billion is uniquely positioned to drive rapid, meaningful change. We’re not just another organization—we’re a catalyst for transformative action, harnessing the collective energy, creativity, and urgency of people worldwide. Our movement harnesses the energy, creativity, and urgency of people worldwide to solve problems in ways traditional institutions cannot.
As we approach a world of 10 billion people, we have an unprecedented opportunity to shape our future. This isn’t just about surviving; it’s about creating a world we’d all love to be born into. 10 Billion offers a powerful sense of purpose—contributing to a cause larger than ourselves by helping others and shaping a better world.
Despite the enormity of our vision, we remain hopeful and committed. Our guiding principle is simple: kindness and empathy fuel progress. This principle drives our commitment to 10 Billion.
10 Billion is more than an organization—it’s a borderless movement. We’re here to connect grassroots energy with institutional power, transforming individual passion into collective action. We believe that by working together, we can solve our greatest challenges and unlock humanity’s full potential in our lifetime.
Now, it’s our turn to make history. Join our global community and take part in creating a world where all 10 billion of us don’t just survive but thrive. Your voice, ideas, and actions matter—whether you’re a student, a CEO, an artist, or an engineer, there’s a role for you in shaping our shared future. Together, we can create a world where all 10 billion of us don’t just survive, but thrive.
The future isn’t something that happens to us—it’s something we create together. The time to act is now.
Are you ready to be part of the change that will shape our world?
