In late 2020 an international group of AMI 6-12 Trainers formed a working group to address numerous concerns regarding the human timelines. Among the concerns were deficits in accuracy, representation, and Euro-centric focus. The group met and established goals to represent all continents, include a balanced view of populations regarding biological sex and age, base the timelines on archeological and current scientific evidence, and be careful not to present false narratives.

The group has been working together steadily for the past two years, researching, discussing, drafting, and working with artists and AMI Staff to digitize the final drafts. You can learn more from group members and AMI 6-12 Trainer Ellen Lebitz here.
