Planet Diversity is about cooperation, mutual support, and learning from each other. It is about understanding and respecting the richness and complexity of our own diversity. Probably the best way to accomplish this is through story-telling. If you have a story to tell please send it to stories@planet-diversity.org using this Story Form.
We are also collecting translations of "Planet Diversity"
