Humanity 2.0 developed in collaboration with the Dicastery for Promoting Integral Human Development (DPIHD) as "an agent of the common good and a believer in the need for a shared horizon to unite humankind," according to the organization's website.

Pope Francis created the DPIHD in August 2016 with the mission to promote "the integral development of the person in light of the Gospel and in line with the Social Doctrine of the Church."

The DPIHD operates "by means of a network of interactions that involve local Churches, Episcopal Conferences, the other organs of the Roman Curia, the international organizations (both Catholic and non-Catholic), the relations with governments and supranational organizations," according to the mission statement.

Humanity 2.0's vision is defined by five beliefs, including a belief that we are one species with a collective responsibility for shaping our future and that challenges to humanity must be met by coordinated action.

The organization attempts to achieve its ends in three ways, the third way being to bring aboard "religious organizations who are aligned in tackling the respective impediment and investing in the solution."

What the authors propose is that if we start the design of the transHuman future from a human perspective, making sure that technology will inspire revolution or evolution, then we can ensure humanity continues to thrive. The transHuman Code tries to center humanity in the emerging tension between a human-controlled or a machine-controlled world. Moreira and Fergusson examine how humans can maintain the uniqueness and the humanity of this brave new world.
