Establishing the organisation<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\n
\n

United Earth is developing a proto-organisation through which humanity can build and test the foundations of a global democratic system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The United Earth Foundation (UEf)<\/strong> will provide the permanent, independent organisational structure needed to support this undertaking. Established as a self-owning, non-profit Norwegian foundation, it will safeguard United Earth’s shared assets, operate and develop essential infrastructure, and provide the professional capacity needed for the initiative’s continued development.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n

Its responsibilities include the stewardship of AGORA and other digital infrastructure, the administration of common resources and support for the institutions being developed under the United Earth Pact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Foundation’s institutional responsibilities and limitations are described under Organisation<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
