CIRHU (Center for International Research on Human Unity) is a pioneering research center dedicated to advancing human unity across cultural, national, and ideological boundaries. We work toward manifesting the vision of a world where all human beings can live together in peace and progressive harmony, transcending all creeds, politics, and nationalities.
Core Focus: Interdisciplinary research on consciousness evolution, integral development, sustainable communities, human unity principles, and technology’s role in supporting collective consciousness.
CIRHU & Auroville
CIRHU is located in Auroville, “The City of Dawn,” an internationally recognized ongoing experiment in human unity. Founded on February 28, 1968, Auroville brings together over 3,300 residents from 60+ nations to realize the Mother’s vision of a universal township dedicated to human unity.
