Themes

Global Governance
Shared problems need global institutions, not great-power rivalry.
The United Nations
A UN with a people’s voice and a limited veto could keep the peace.
World Federalism
The world needs a democratic federation whose laws bind nations.
Peace & Justice
Courts, not war or nuclear threat, should settle disputes between nations.
Planetary Health
No nation can fix the climate or stop a pandemic alone; shared rules can.
Community & Voices
World democracy will be built by citizens, not handed down by governments.
