About
Introduction
Our mission is to replace oppressive domination and submission with compassionate cooperation, serve humanity, the environment, and life itself, and promote society’s holistic and systemic transformation into a just and caring community.
Our Methods and Our Worldview discuss how we promote this mission,
Our Resources present goals, methods, ideas, and information in these Sections:
Concerning the relevant issues, each Section includes an Overview, a summary of Problems and Solutions, a Knowledge Base of resources, and actions to advance progress, including actiosn underway and proposed actions.
Resources in the Systemic Section address how issues are systemically interrelated. The Multi-sector Section presents resources that focus on more than one issue. Resources that focus on only one issue are included in one of the next six Sections.
The Actions page in each Section presents concrete steps, including Adaptive Actions, that individuals and organizations can take to relieve suffering, promote justice, nurture self-improvement, and/or improve social conditions.
The Action link on the top navbar includes a drop-down menu inviting readers to submit essays or engage in dialogues concerning these efforts, and a link sending people to the Sections’ action resources.
The Knowledge Base includes resources concerning:
