Why Your Community Should Join Place4UsJoin the global community of communities working to create the future we want on a healthy planet. Our civilization is impoverishing most of us while enriching a tiny global elite and simultaneously destroying the Earth's life-support system that all human and non-human life depend upon. A global citizens movement is necessary to transform this unjust and badly designed system into one that is more just, fair, and peaceful - and to heal the Earth’s life-support system. Place4Us is a novel Social Collaboration Platform (SCP) that has the mission to facilitate the global citizen movement that can lead the transformation from the current system to a new system of humans meeting their needs while safeguarding the Earth's life-support system. This platform is designed to host a global ecosystem of Virtual Community Centers (VCCs) that collaborate at many levels and through self governance maintain open, inclusive and just interactions. Together, the VCCs make progress towards a joint vision of a future that brings humankind into balance with the Earth's life-support system, and where the purpose of nature including humans is clearly articulated, respected and protected. VCCs are virtual buildings for community members to interact, learn, work together and act together. A viable global citizen’s movement depends upon strong local communities and the VCCs are designed to enable those local communities. Place4Us is different from other existing and emerging SCPs. While there are increasingly more SCPs, there are few, if any, that are mission-based and designed to facilitate collaboration between communities. Unlike the other SCPs, Place4Us has a clear vision and a focused mission, and Place4Us enables broad collaboration between the VCCs. |
