Humans are social beings who are born ready to connect with others. Throughout our lives we are sustained by our connections with other people: our relationships with family and friends, lovers and colleagues, teammates and classmates, communities and societies all define who we are and shape our sense of self. Cut off from others we experience loneliness and social isolation that can lead to depression, poor health and increased risk of cognitive impairment or death.
