What We Do

Human Agency is building a world where the most powerful tools of media and technology can and should be used to advance the values and goals of people. Digital advertising today is profit-centered, more complex than it needs to be, and is currently monopolised by those who have existing knowledge, tools and resources. We are changing this by building a platform that gives power of digital advertising to the people.

We are team of technologists, nonprofit leaders, and entrepreneurs driven by purpose and committed to the free exercise of our human agency
