Summary/Abstract: The issue of the ways of certifying humanity by contemporary people takes the rank of a priority task today and a challenge that goes into the future. The triad of key categories contained in the title of the article: humanity — problem — educational challenge constitute the clues that define the course of considerations undertaken in this text. I start them with terminological approaches, and then present the issues raised on the one hand from the perspective of perceiving humanity as a priority problem and challenge for humanity, which requires intensive epistemological and exploratory efforts, and on the other hand as a constitutive basis for educational theory and practice focused on insightful learning of humanity, as well as responsible certification by educational entities of this phenomenon in the anthropospheric universe in which attempts to improve elements of the world of values have no end.
