A group of Spanish volunteer founded this organisation in 1995 to provide practical asssistance for marginalised children in the Tibet Autonomous Region. Comunidad Humana works together with Tibetan assistants and aims towards handing over to them the management of projects it initiates.

In 1998, the group helped to establish two small, private non-profit homes in Lhasa for orphans and homeless children. These are now managed by local partners, but Comunidad Humana continues to provide help in expanding and improving the facilities, as well as assistance in physiotherapy and other kinds of rehabilitation for children with disabilities.

Comunidad Human has also helped to refurbish around 20, mainly rural, primary schools in Tibet, including improvement of boarding facilities for children from remote areas.

Recently, the organisation has been supporting rural development by helping communities to establish greenhouses, and simple agro-processing facilities for products such as wool and vegetable oil. It has also helped to construct gravity fed drinking water supplies.
