United Earth Now

United Earth Now (UEnow) is a grassroots international civic movement working toward a democratic global order based on shared responsibility, solidarity, and justice. We bring together people and initiatives from different regions to imagine and build alternatives to the current fragmented and unjust international system.

For us, “United Earth” expresses the long-term horizon of a unified humanity capable of governing itself democratically beyond borders.

It is not a party label or an ideological brand, but a name for a future where global cooperation replaces domination and fragmentation.

No. The manifesto is a starting point, not a final doctrine. It reflects the realities and values that motivated the creation of United Earth Now, and it is explicitly open to discussion, critique, and evolution as the movement grows.

It is not expected to reflect every participant’s position in full — nor should it. Its purpose is to speak honestly about the world we live in and the challenges we face.

We are a growing international network of volunteers, activists, researchers, and creatives from different regions.

Not yet. We currently operate as an informal, community-driven initiative while exploring appropriate legal frameworks for long-term work.

We use a collaborative model. Decisions are developed through open discussion and consensus rather than strict hierarchy.

Anyone who supports global cooperation, justice, and democratic participation is welcome.

We especially encourage participation from marginalized communities, youth, feminists, queer people, and voices from the Global South.

Important decisions are discussed openly within working groups before reaching shared conclusions.

We plan to begin releasing public updates, summaries, and vision documents in 2026.

A decentralized global movement coordinated through working groups, assemblies, and local initiatives.

We collaborate informally with individuals from academic, activist, and policy backgrounds.

Humanity faces converging crises — climate collapse, inequality, systemic violence, and the erosion of human rights — yet remains divided into sovereign nation-states.

Our long-term goal is to help crystallize an international civil network that connects struggles for human rights, climate justice, and suppressed communities with the call for a democratic global order rooted in popular participation.

We are not affiliated with any political party. Our position is values-based rather than partisan, grounded in human dignity, equality, global justice, and democratic self-determination beyond borders.

Labels vary, but our focus is substance: building systems that serve people and planet rather than profit, domination, or exclusion.

We advocate for deep transformation of global governance to meet 21st-century challenges democratically and effectively.

We are bold in vision and realistic about the scale of change required.

Yes. Our roadmap includes outreach, assemblies, alliance-building, Earth Day mobilization, and a 2026 Vision Document.

Both. We collaborate with civil society while maintaining independence from governments and parties.

Public outreach, educational content, online campaigns, and coordinated visibility actions.

A combination of both.

We welcome both short-term and long-term cooperation, depending on shared goals and context.

Perspectives, expertise, lived experience, and willingness to engage in dialogue and collective action.

A growing international network, solidarity across borders, visibility, and a global democratic perspective.

We are not building a fixed ideological coalition. Cooperation is voluntary, non-binding, and issue-based.

Groups retain their full independence and identity. Our aim is not to merge agendas, but to create spaces where different struggles can connect, exchange knowledge, and act in solidarity where interests align.

United Earth Now does not glorify violence.

However, we reject the idea that non-violence can be demanded universally without regard for context. History shows that non-violent resistance is a privilege not available to everyone, especially under totalitarian or violently repressive regimes where dissent is met with mass repression or extermination.

Our position is one of ethical realism: we oppose oppression and state violence, and we refuse moral double standards that condemn the resistance of oppressed people while ignoring the vastly greater violence already committed against them.

Our first focus is civic engagement and public consciousness; institutional influence may emerge later.
