Spirit of the Future

The winds of change are sweeping across the world, and with it, the imperative to rethink and reshape global governance and cooperation. IntegralWorld, guided by the essence of Auroville, has embarked on a transformative journey to help the UN reshape global governance and cooperation. In a world confronted by significant global shocks, such as the COVID-19 pandemic, the Ukraine conflict, and the Triple Planetary Crisis, this initiative is driven by a shared vision for a better tomorrow, inspired by the upcoming “Summit of the Future” in 2024. IntegralWorld’s “Spirit of the Future” initiative seeks to explore the possibilities behind this call for global transformation while staying true to the spirit of Auroville.

Purpose

IntegralWorld’s “Spirit of the Future” initiative is rooted in the ideas and ideals of Sri Aurobindo – human unity and collaboration for conscious evolution. These challenging times have shown that the current framework and the fragmented world is ill-equipped to address the complex issues facing humanity. Therefore, the ‘why’ behind this initiative lies in the quest for renewed cooperation on vital global challenges. It stems from a recognition that the time has come to reaffirm our shared principles, reinvigorate global governance, and align our collective efforts with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) using the concepts propounded by the visionary philosopher.

The “Spirit of the Future” embodies a spirit of unity, resilience, and forward-thinking, driven by the understanding that we are all stakeholders in shaping a brighter and more sustainable world. This initiative seeks to harness the global desire for change and channel it into a constructive and collaborative force for good.

How “Spirit of the Future” Works:

IntegralWorld, in collaboration with global partners, has devised a comprehensive approach to bring the “Spirit of the Future” to life:

Distributed and Coordinated Response Systems

Recognizing the need for a robust response to complex global shocks, the initiative proposes the establishment of an Emergency Platform in various locations. This platform will coordinate responses, maximize the use of localised foresight, and hold all stakeholders accountable for their contributions.

Youth Engagement & Empowerment

To ensure meaningful inclusion of young people, a framework is required to systematically involve them in global decision-making. By supporting regional youth consultative bodies, the initiative seeks to amplify the voices of the next generation.

Human Progress Metrics

This IntegralWorld initiative introduces a set of metrics beyond GDP, called Human Progress Metrics, ensuring that decisions are based on pursuit of true human progress. For this, we rely upon the ancient universal Indic knowledge of ‘Satchitananda’ and base the Metrics on the indicators of Truth, Consciousness, and Bliss as the vital measures of progress.
