What does a human lifetime look like when our daily activities are translated into years?

This graphic combines global time-use data with an average lifespan of 73.3 years. It offers a different perspective on the time we spend sleeping, working, eating, caring, learning, travelling and enjoying our free time.

Of course, averages cannot describe every individual life, and a graphic cannot tell us how our time should be spent. But it can invite us to pause and ask: what would we like to make a little more time for?

Meaning is personal and can take many forms. For some people, volunteering can be one way to connect, contribute, learn and experience life beyond the familiar.
