The oneVillage Initiative

 

Dedicated to the unity and healing of the human family, the oneVillage Foundation (OVF) has identified the critical leverage points that promote the rapid replication of sustainable systems around the world. The oneVillage Initiative addresses end-to-end human services for community prosperity for not just survival but long term community prosperity.

OVF has created a framework designed to involve people from around the globe to support the formation of sustainable communities (Unity Center ecovillages). This network through the effective use of ICT and other approaches and technologies will promote and facilitate the sharing of Knowledge upholding and reflecting the highest version of each individual's growth.

Trust leads to Unity; together they create Prosperity
It takes each heart, in unity, to care for our children and their children. It will take the people of the world, working together, to restore the human heritage of community, love, and meaning. The efforts of many working in harmony realize much greater short and long-term gains than the efforts of many working disparately. As the community's individual and collective vitality is restored, people can and naturally do begin to address their most pressing needs, discussing them, identifying solutions, and working together to build on what already exists. It will take the people of the world, working together, to restore the human heritage of community, love, and meaning.

 

Green Community Network
We use ICT to connect people, projects, funding and results from all over the world to form the Green Community Network. The goal of this network the effective and rapid replication of sustainable development models. On a practical level this means empowering our network members helping them to sell products (crafts et al), make contacts w/donors for projects which have human-development at their core (crafts-making and sales to alleviate poverty, for example). Interconnecting these networks and their accompanying knowledge bases moves us toward the idea of a Social Enterprise Platform (SEP)--a globally scaled but community based business network.

Storytelling
The community healing process begins with heart-to-heart communication among people who experience the Universal Love. As they reach out and include all members of their community in the love, a space opens for deep communication through storytelling. As the community gathers to share stories and be nurtured, sorrows are released and its individual and collective vitality is restored. OVF builds full participation in governance as a vital component and natural extension of the community healing process.
