Humansys is a catalyst of positive change by providing leading-edge behavioural science solutions to the challenges of our times.

The variety and intensity of global challenges are rapidly increasing, but our social systems underperform. We must redesign our individual and organisational approaches to establish resilient and sustainable human systems.

Humansys invites you on an innovative journey to ensure a better future for ourselves, humanity, and our Planet.

Our activity

Humansys is a social enterprise that integrates cutting-edge behavioural solutions into various applied contexts with the vision to form resilient, sustainable and enduring human systems from the individual to societal levels.

We aim to foster productivity and cohesion, cultivate the universal values of humanity, and mitigate the growing intensity of global challenges. These challenges include the emerging mental health crisis, the erosion of human rights, political destabilisation, increasing chances of war, poverty, hunger, the climate crisis, the continuous destruction of our planet's biodiversity and the depreciating habitability of our planet, or the risks associated with LEO or deep space exploration. These phenomena all bring global challenges to humanity, and they also stem from the same source: the human factor.

The growing number of errors of our social structures are imposing cumulative burden on individuals, humanity, and our Planet. These challenges and adversities call for new solutions to meet a future we can all be proud of.

It is indeed possible to achieve universally positive outcomes. At this end, we must fine-tune ourselves on individual, as well as on socio-organisational levels. In order to achieve sustainably resilient human systems we must cultivate specific cross-disciplinary approaches already proven in science.

Our approach at Humansys integrates previously isolated academic disciplines in behavioural economics, contemplative science, contextual behavioural science, evolutionary science, biomedical science, philosophy, anthropology, management, and system engineering. These disciplines were once separate, but the emerging challenges require and the advances in science and technology enable their adaptation across a wide range of sectors and scenarios.

They can be applied to areas such as education, business, sports, and public health. They can also be implemented in environments with high risks and stringent reliability demands, for example in defence and critical operational contexts such as expeditions, off-world habitability, military, submerged cave-systems, or space exploration.

Global challenges are part of our lives, and their impact can be worsened if we choose to remain blind to their threats. Instead, we can consciously choose to mitigate it by our agency. The interdependence of our societies is an uncomfortable fact, but the option of 'interconnectivity' is a more favourable possibility.For this we need to strengthen the connection we have with ourselves, each other, and our environment. Through a catalytic transformation we can achieve a positive individual and socio-cultural change. We must teach individuals, teams, organisations, leaders specific behavioural and system skills through which we can eradicate errors, and can ensure the resilient and sustainable development of our societies on our Planet, and perhaps even beyond.

Th existence of life itself is most probably not unique in the universe, however, life as it exits on our Planet is. Of it, human consciousness is the most advanced of all living species. So extraordinarily that it was able to mitigate the impacts nature, and bested its harshness with technology. However, we are now in a critical phase, where our agency got so robust that it could lead to the end of existence human civilisation, and endangers all species on Our Planet, including ourselves.

We have the means to do better and choose a faith we can all be proud of, and to establish enduring human systems on Earth and beyond Low-Earth Orbit, and we must harness this knowledge and integrate it into our individual lives, organisational networks, and societies.

Our interventions can be employed across various scales, from individuals and small groups to expansive networks and organisations, on national levels, or even for global endeavours. Our leading-edge behavioural solutions can be implemented into management systems, technological solutions, or apps. With such effort, we identify errors, and transform organisational structures into resilient and sustainable human systems.

This development can be expressed in numbers. We are able to improve individual mental health in average with 25%, which can also result in an average 8% of team cohesion and performance increase. Translate that to your own performance, company revenue, or Gross Domestic Product!

Social enterprise

We are a business that has clear social objectives. The betterment of humanity's future is our core mission by developing resilient and sustainable human systems from the individual to organisational levels.

Being mutually rewarding is the most beneficial and lasting form of cooperation. This way, we believe that we can be useful to one another, we can generate profit rapidly, and grow resiliently together towards a sustainable future.

The whole is greater than the sum of it's parts. The profit we generate is redistributed towards funding further social enterprises that are beneficial for people and Our Planet.

Mitigating global challenges

Global challenges include environmental, economical and social challenges, for example volcanic activity, poverty, or the mental health crisis. Some, such as climate change, belong to multiple categories. Only few of the environmental challenges can not be anticipated (for example meteorite impacts). The rest of the adversities can be at the very least mitigated as they appear or as we become aware of them.

However, all the global economic and social challenges in the modern world are the results of cumulative errors of our socioeconomic structures: poverty, war, lack of security, or starvation. Hardship is always the harshest on the less advantaged. We especially want to support and enable those who are at need, and the means to achieve it exits. Help us to build a better world!

Fostering mental & organisational health

Depression, anxiety, rumination, feeling overwhelmed or fatigued and the subsequent lack of ability to think critically and freely are some of the greatest inhibitors of productivity and well-being. Similarly to any individual, organisations also have a health status. Inhibition builds to inaction, leading to feeling stuck.

Behavioural insights

Behavioural data is not only at the heart of science, but also modern business. Our data engineering services are designed to help businesses and communities harness the power of their data to make informed decisions in individual and organisational contexts to drive growth.

Our consultants are experts in quantitative, qualitative, mixed-method analyses and action research. We can handle small sample studies, quasi-experimental studies, randomised-control trials, longitudinal designs or social media data with large samples. We cover the complete process from survey design and data collection to data cleaning and analytics, interpretation and report writing.

Resilient sustainability

Following adaptation there is more headspace to orient flexibly within the context. In this state we can move closer to goals and aims, and realise objectives.

Resilience is to skilfully adapt whenever the situation requires. Sustainability is to keep adapting flexibly whenever the situation requires, while also remaining congruent with our values. This is the only way to experience and maintain authenticity.

Leading with behavioural science

Utilising extensive expertise, our collaborative team of experts deliver innovative behavioural solutions to directly address the source of an issue. We attend to complex biopsychosocial factors using process-based cognitive-behavioural therapies to achive transdiagnostic and transtherapeutic benefits at individual to organisational system levels by increasing psychological and organisational flexibility. We enable adaptive action, foster well-being, and mitigate risks.

The inter- and multi-disciplinary approach of our team enables us to incorporate insights from various disciplines into industries, delivering valuable outcomes for our clients across several sectors.

Innovation, Research & Development

We pioneer transformative solutions in various sectors where social change is needed or possible.

Whether it is mental health, the domain of virtual reality, earth observation, data science and analytics, performance enhancement, or space exploration, we deliver innovative, cutting-edge solutions.

Below is a list of some of our innovative ideas taking shape in the global community.

Transformational change

A change event in the midst of hardship is necesseary in order to adapt to contextual needs, and thus is always transformational. To miss an opportunity is to remain stuck, despite adaptation being necessary. To take that leap forward is self-transcendence, and hard work requiring commitment. We want to see these efforts last and to remain, as we interconnectedly and interdependently share this Planet.

Project Portfolio

Below we showcase some our already running initiatives. These transformative projects define Humansys' activity at its core. Please also understand this as an opportunity where we seek your participation, collaboration, or support.

Prosocial Organisational Development

We develop organisations, teams, team members for enhanced outcomes. Similarly to an individual, an organisation productivity is also dependent on its health status: organisational health is embedded in its systems, operations, management, and the behavioural health of its members.

Whether the goal is the improvement of the productivity of a corporate department, or to increase employee's mental health, or the performance enhancement of sport teams, we have the means to foster adaptive leadership competencies, improve organisational, team, and individual mental health up to 35%, improve cohesion between members, and increase their performance up to 12%, translatable to financial revenue!

Furthermore, we introduce and implement system-design elements which ensures the resilience of any organisation, firm, or community, guaranteeing its sustainability. We achieve this through combining cutting-edge forms of contextual behavioural science and Nobel-prize winning organisational behavioural-economics research.

Humansys communities

Most of us choose our neighbourhood based on its location, price, closeness to work or a our child's school, availability of certain services, amenities or facilities, etc. However, ultimately what matters most is who we live it, who we are surrounded with, who our child is surrounded with, what kind of people they are, and what means we are able to cooperate. Hence, we design resilient and sustainable communities based on the human factor. We select families and individuals who are fit to live and work together so they can create their own communal needs and standards, mutual support and cooperation. We create small scale communities in forests, mountains, deserts, beaches, rural areas, in large cities and skyscrapers too for residential, professional, education or holiday purposes. We select the locations matched with the communities needs, carefully selecting the members of the community based on profiling and fit to one another. We support our communities to ensure their resilience and sustainability based on the principles of contextual behavioural science.

Enhancing behavioural health & performance in extreme environments

We create, test and deliver cutting-edge process-based cognitive-behavioural training programs to improve behavioural health and performance in isolated, confined, and extreme environments, performance, and in critical operational contexts. These include aviation, space exploration, defence, expeditions, and premiere sports. We design our programs for individuals, teams, and organisations who need to improve their behavioural health performance, or need to maintain it in adverse scenarios.

Humansys Center of Exploration

Future missions in deep space will pose new kinds of significant behavioural health challenges to astronauts. Humansys Center for Exploration (Humansys CE) is a research network and innovation hub that facilitates exploration in extreme environments to optimise behavioural health and human factors research, and translate the findings to human space exploration with high validity. To aid this endevour, Aquanauta, a high-fidelity space analogue mission was developed. This analogue involves expert technical divers serving as analogue astronauts in real-life contexts of cave diving, wet cave exploration and camping. The programme was previously funded by the European Space Agency Business Incubation Center. By exploring the unknown, we intend to expand our knowledge about ourselves in the world, and beyond.

Mindful Journey in Space

We find alternative virtual ways to introduce, train, and reinforce learning experiences to facilitate healthy aadaptive coping. We integrate contextual behavioural science into virtual or augmented reality to reinforce learning in healthcare, space, engineering, and other sectors.
For example, we virtually created the so-called Overview Effect, an unusual experience often resulting in a marked cognitive shift of perception of the Planet, its habitants, and their role and perceived meaning in life, overall also leading to a change in the observers personality. We recreated this experience in VR and further facilitated it with mindfulness meditation, teaching acceptance, awareness, and compassion.
Similarly, we also co-created a VR-based cartoonish space trip backed with a guided mindfulness meditation exercise to reduce anxiety in children undergoing oncological treatment, and help them to outlast an fMRI procedure without needing to receive anaesthetics, resulting in increased relaxation skills.

Mindful Schools Initiative

Lasting change occurs through the subsequent generations.

We help young minds around the world build awareness through mindfulness. We bring the crucial psychological skills to students early on and help them to prepare for a life ahead, improving their mental health, well-being, life-satisfaction, self-esteem, cohesion with others, productivity and performance.

We invest in the youth since they are the future, and they will be the ones carrying forward with whatever we have been able to leave to them. So let's be there for them!

ACT Mindfully Center

The future of mental health and well-being is exciting.

We create 21st century mental health clinics to provide accessible and cutting-edge process-based therapy treatment for individuals, couples, training teams, and organisations. We teach how one can navigate through adversity and crises. We educate how to be productive, cohesive, mentally healthy and resilient and how to sustain such state for a long time in a healthy work environment.

We also train psychologists, educators and health care professionals with leading contextual and contemplative cognitive-behavioural therapies.

The Csikszentmihalyi Mental Health Strategy

By 2030, uni-polar depression will be the leading cause of burden of disease, thus foreshadowing cardiovascular diseases, stroke, and even cancer. We calculated the direct economic costs of mental ill-health globally - it approximates 13.5% of a developed country's yearly GDP. We propose possible means to prevent and reduce human suffering, to foster mental health, and with that, to increase productivity.

Bring your team, department, organisation, city, or even country into flow with our mental health program, and flourish well-being and productivity!

Data Analytics and Research

We conduct behavioural research in relation to health behaviours, education, marketing, sustainable consumerism, psychotherapy, coaching, and any domains ere human behaviour has importance. Whether it is testing a new product in virtual reality, analysing social media or healthcare data, and carrying out human behaviour research, we can do it for you. Our data analysts and consultants are experts in quantitative, qualitative, mixed-method analyses and action research. We can handle case or small sample studies, quasi-experimental studies, randomised-control trials, longitudinal designs or social media data with large samples. We cover the complete process from survey design and data collection to data cleaning and analytics, data interpretation, data visualisation, report writing, and knowledge integration.

Remote sensing to understand large scale human behaviour

We uniquely combine satellite observation & remote sensing with human behaviour research to understand it on a large scale. We identify those in need or hazardous areas, monitor their reactions to hazard. We help monitor and optimise professionals in agriculture, detect droughts and wildfires early on, and help people to prepare these adversities. We work with field professionals to understand how human activity observable from space changes, and provide the needed behavioural science and research expertise.
