ABOUT US
WHAT WE BELIEVE
We believe that to effectively fight global challenges and deliver global solutions that put people and the planet first, citizens of the world must be organized and informed on a global level, as well as willing and able to take action personally and politically to drive change.
With everything but the free movement of people and their political power now breaking through the normative concept of the nation state, citizens of the world must unite to reclaim civic space and defend the interests of people and planet.
WHAT WE DO
We connect, coordinate, equip, and mobilize global citizens who give a shit to take action to drive positive change for people and the planet. We do this by running campaigns focused on global issues to drive governments, corporations, institutions, and citizens towards sustainable global solutions for a healthier world for all. Each campaign we run has a clear ask for change, as well as a target; and alongside taking political action we support Global Sentinels to take personal action in the interest of people and the planet. While our campaigns change with time and the need, demand, or opportunity of the moment, we always strive to:
We educate and inform global citizens about global issues and solutions.
We equip and mobilize Global Sentinels to take impactful action to improve world health and create more civic space for global citizens.
We connect and engage with Global Sentinels to build a movement for community, civic engagement, and positive social change.
We generate political will and resources for community led and owned change initiatives and solutions.
