Integral Activism, Take 2

Integral Activism

We live in world of unprecedented complexity and interconnectivity in which individual and collective welfare is affected by more things than we, as individuals, can adequately contemplate and manage at any one time. To more adequately and efficiently address and resolve pressing issues of militarization, nuclear proliferation, environmental degradation and toxification, social injustice and cultural conflicts, resource depletion, etc., we will need a more comprehensive, a more integral approach toward prudent activism. Integral Activism is intended and designed to meet and fill this pressing need.
IA (Integral Activism) recognizes and supports the indispensable roles, values and functions of existing non-governmental organizations (NGOs), working for greater cooperation and collaboration among them while organizing and prioritizing through the utilization of an integral model inspired by the works of Ken Wilber.
IA will serve as a centralized fundraising nexus for a more broad variety of good works for the common good than any one person could do by themselves, alone. The United Way is one example of a prototype for the emerging institution, Integral Activism.
IA works within local through global contexts for the greater health and sustainability of environments, cultures and societies. IA provides a redistributive service for charitable contributions and retains a small transparent fee to support the operation of the organization and key contributing members.
IA also provides educational resources through a variety of mediums using collaborative strategies.

Charity pays dividends
