Local to Global Collaboration: An Integrative System to Address Planetary Challenges
This page contains links to all the documents that are part of the proposal for a global governance system submitted to the competition announced by the Global Challenges Foundation in Sweden. The submission took place in September 2017, and was the product of a significant group of people, with input from many, including people from the global south as well as those with an indigenous perspective. The ideas for this proposal emerged from the vision put forth in Reweaving Our Human Fabric: Working Together to Create a Nonviolent Future.
