The Earth Viability Center, Inc. (EVC) maintains Place4Us together with the participants in Place4Us. In the EVC VCC we focus on developing EVC as a consortium of many partners engaged in making the world a better place. The initial research program of EVC is focused on Viability Indices, i.e. key indicators which show how the actual state of the Earth Life Support System compares to a healthy state, i.e. the viability of the ELSS. To the extent possible this will be done for scales ranging from the global to the local. To make progress towards EVC’s vision, the Center also engages in the development of an Earth Viability Dashboard and of social collaboration platforms as a global societal infrastructure that facilitate the wide use of Earth viability knowledge for decision making at all levels.

If your organization is interested in joining the EVC consortium, please send a message to the VCC admins (in the VCC Admin Room).
