Cannes- BBC, BBC Worldwide and Bob Geldof are joining forces for Dictionary of Man, a unique and ambitious anthropology project to record every human society on Earth. The Dictionary of Man website will be a repository of content to digitally catalogue human existence as a resource for exchanging ideas and information. Envisioned as a project with “360 degree media”, Dictionary of Man will use all available media to create the largest record of films, photographs, anthropological histories, philosophies, theologies, economies, language, art, and documented and personal accounts from people of every society across the globe. With the cooperation of institutions around the world, all archives and records will be included. Anthropologists, social historians and experts in various disciplines will be involved as the degrees of human difference are logged over the years.

Dictionary of Man crews will film the 900 separate groups of people that anthropologists believe exist,
