The "allhumanity" project, the brain child of Robert Cipriano has filled a vital gap in global health communications. The "allhumanity project" provides an open and transparent environment and capacity to communicate among the multi-disciplinary professions all of whom are required to help solve crises of today and in the future. Charities need a voice in the decision-makling process vital to the increasingly expanding humanitarian community. A short decade ago those who called themselves humanitarian professionals numbered about 100,000 and has grown today to over 220,000. The "allhumanity" project comes at an opportune time giving us an unprecedented and necessary means to communicate and exchange ideas that we all share responsibility for. We thank Robert's lifelong pursuit to enhance the level of transparency and information exchange in order to help mitigate poverty and its consequences among the most vulnerable of populations...and for the work he has done to make "allhumanity" a success. - From Dr. Frederick M.
