ISPO is a growing worldwide association
of citizens (members in over 50 countries) who use their votes
in a new, co-ordinated and effective way to drive all nations
to co-operate in solving our planetary crisis. ISPO aims to
bring all nations to adopt in principle - and then to simultaneously
implement - the Simultaneous Policy (SP), a range of democratically
selected regulations to bring about economic justice, environmental
security and peace around the world. With SP, global citizens
are replacing destructive competition with fruitful co-operation.
Voluntary help needed: internet campaigning;
local campaigning; website; leafleting; public speaking; member
development; fundraising. Also see the ‘volunteers’
page on the ISPO website

The Student World Assembly is designed to
build a global community using an internet-based process of
raising issues of global concern, deliberating, and deciding
on a position to take regarding the chosen issue. The Student
World Assembly aims at involving every global citizen on earth
as opposed to focusing on individual regions. It is not based
on country lines or nationalities but rather people who share
similar views on the issues that surround them.
Voluntary help needed: spreading the word,
leading to potential participants and supporters including
individuals, entire schools, related organizations, foundations,
and others. In addition, the Student World Assembly will be
holding the first annual Student World Assembly Convention
at California Polytechnic State University, San Luis Obispo
during the summer of 2004. Although specific jobs have yet
to be determined, volunteer hours will be much appreciated
at the event.

The World Social Forum (WSF) is an open
meeting place where groups and movements of civil society
opposed to neo-liberalism and a world dominated by capital
or by any form of imperialism, but engaged in building a planetary
society centred on the human person, come together to pursue
their thinking, to debate ideas democratically, to formulate
proposals, share their experiences freely and network for
effective action. The WSF debates alternative means to building
a globalization in solidarity, which respects universal human
rights and those of all men and women of all nations and the
environment, and is grounded in democratic international systems
and institutions at the service of social justice, equality
and the sovereignty of peoples.
