The Global Community has had press releases ever since 1985. The Table of Contents of only the lastest ones were uploaded here. A short list of our previous press releases can be read.

The Editor of the Global Information Media (GIM) is now accepting articles, letters, reports, works of art, research papers, discussions and global dialogues, and messages for publication. This Media is a way to communicate "workable sound solutions" to problems arising in the world. Let us share our problems and workable sound solutions. Sharing information is a necessity to all life and humanity's survival. Our world is changing fast before our eyes, and we must react quickly and hard to protect all life on Earth. No hesitation! Right now and no waiting! Life on the planet is our first priority. We must protect it at all costs. We, global citizens, fight to protect life on Earth for this generation and the next ones. We are the defenders of the environment and the global life-support systems. We know who the beasts are, and how they destroy the living on our planet. We have rallied together all over the world to protect our home, Earth. But this time we are not alone. We know it all! We know how everything works. And we will do whatever it takes to protect life on Earth. "We the Peoples", the Global Community, the GCEG, are the Earth revolutionaries, and we will protect life on Earth at all costs.

This website is the main index for media information concerning activities of the Global Community.

All sections may contain any of the following information: research papers, articles, letters, press releases, reports, and newsletters. They may also contain discussions, global dialogues, or just email messages from interested participants and groups.

We are delighted to receive new articles for future Newsletters from our readers. It is imperative that, if you give us permission to re-print, all or in part, you include all copyright verification of permission of quote. We do not have a copyright research expert to do this work.

Just so you all know we don't pay anyone, and we don't pay expenses. We do volunteer work for humanity. We expect volunteers to be responsible and accountable of all their actions. We do 'soft activism' work. The Global Constitution shows us how to operate our organization. We follow Global Law as shown in the Global Constitution. All those who do volunteer work for us must become familliar with it and become 'global citizens'. We want our volunteers to be completely loyal to the Global Community and to the values and principles we promote. The Editor.

Politics and Justice without borders

GCEG’s commitment to the Global Community to make government and global citizens responsible and accountable, and to bring about Global Peace.

It contains a PDF file and other info files concerning colors and text of the image. Adobe Reader 9 is best for reading the PDF file. Part I (4 pages, 10MB) We the Peoples, all Life on Earth, are claiming ownership of the planet as a birthright. "The Global Community is defined as being all that exits or occurs at any location at any time between the Ozone layer above and the core of the planet below. It is defined around a given territory, that territory being the planet as a whole, as well as a specific population, which is all life forms on Earth." This definition includes all people, all life on Earth. That makes the Global Community the 21st century framework for Earth governance, and the only legitimate body with the power to make the laws of the land and to make the rules for the territory of the Earth.

April 8, 2009	Annual Meeting of the Federation of Global Governments. Register now. Annual Meeting of the Federation of Global Governments to be held August 21st, 2009, Nanaimo, British Columbia, Canada Register now (no fees to register). This coming August 21st meeting of the Federation of Global Governments is crucial to everyone and every government in the world in search of a stable economy, justice without borders, essential services, and security for all on our planet. The Federation offers all of that. Civil society, also an important partnership of our organization, offers a humane solution to the global crisis we are seeing today. That's what's needed! That's what we want! No less! Leaders of the G8 nations and their corporate sponsors were caught destroying the economies of the world have met this month with 11 other nations and the EU leadership, they called their group "G20", and proposed to fix the financial system by giving trillions of dollars to banking institutions, the World Bank, the IMF, and those working, directly or indirectly, for the war industry. This is not a humane solution. It is more of the same that got humanity into this chaotic state we are living today. The Agenda for the Federation's Annual Meeting contents the approval of several key factors to a better future, and you will be asked to discuss and to vote on everyone of them. Come to this important meeting! Tell us what you want! You can still vote through email. Send us an email concerning the issues of your choice here and vote. Agenda Approval for: the dissolution of the United Nations organization by a) voting for its dissolution during the next General Meeting of the UN b) letting go your membership with the UN organization moving the Office of the Federation to a more suitable location helping nation governments to apply for membership with the Federation of Global Governments giving essential services to all your citizens; if a nation cannot do so then allowing co-operation with the GPA to offer such services the replacement of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights with the Scale of Global Rights the application of Global Law and its Regulations concerning only of essential aspects of life: A) Global environmental, ecological and protection of the global life-support systems rights B) Primordial human rights: safety and security eat a balance diet 'clean' energy a 'clean' and healthy environment drink fresh water breath clean air basic clothing have shelter universal health care and education employment for all forming a Global Protection Agency (GPA) in your nation, which will be subsidized by the nations's government; if not possible, then co-operating with the GPA to apply the law the establishment of the Global Social-Economic Reform (GSER) as a replacement to the globalization system of the G8 nations; the IMF, World Bank, and all other similar organizations to be under the control of the GSER Ministry the establishment of a new monetary system based on global sustainability principles the dissolution of the WTO, NAFTA, FTA and other similar inadequate trading organizations the dissolution of NATO organization the immediate formation of Global Ministries in the following sections of political and civil life: Health Global Social-Economic Reform (GSER) Energy Agriculture Water preservation Soil preservation Global Rights Judiciary Sustainability in development and resources Environmental and global life-support systems protection Peace and disarmament GPA Administrative Council Civil Society Finances Employment the Executive Council of the Federation Ombudspersons Office Global co-operation Global Citizenship Industry and Manufacturing Products Finances (Expenditures and Revenues) World Monetary Institutions Youth Global Ethics Environment and Ecological Protection Fisheries Forests Soil Conservation Mining Earth Resources Water Resources Economic Development Trade Cultural Protection Education and Training Urbanization and Rural Development Earth Negotiations Research and Development Communications Transportation Heritage Protection Judiciary Laws, Regulations, Guidelines, Codes and Standards Social Services Rescues and Emergencies Due to Natural Disasters Refugees Consumption and Production Business Development Human Resources Human and Social Development Aboriginals and Natives Agricultural Development Food Production Oceans and Coastal Areas Infrastructures and Facilities Science and Technology Eradication of Hunger and Poverty The GPA and these Ministries need to be an integral part of a nation government whenever possible and needed. The Global Government of a specific region of the world could possibly replace the need of a nation to have these Ministries as long as the nation agrees that the Global Government would manage the Ministries on its behalf. There is also the possibility of having a Global Government managing the Ministries on behalf of all participating nations. Register now (no fees to register). Please note that security of government leaders at the meeting will have to be organized and paid for by each government leader. At the moment we have no budget for security. And note that, as we have done every year so far, the Federation's meeting is an integrated part of Global Dialogue 2009 and, therefore, is included in the Program of Global Dialogue 2009. The exact site of the meeting has not yet been decided, but it will be held August 21st, 2009, in Nanaimo, British Columbia, Canada.

June 1st, 2008	Federation of Global Governments essential services are offering the " Global Movement to Help " by Germain Dufour Spiritual Leader of the Global Community Summary As a first step to getting help, all nations can and should approve those first three sections on the Scale of Global Rights. The approval would supersede the political and physical borders of participating member nations. The Global Protection Agency (GPA) would have the approval from all member nations to give immediate help, bypassing normal government protocols. Somewhat like an emergency unit but at the global level. That is what those first three sections mean. They represent an efficient and immediate emergency response to help. First, participating member nations need to give their approval to the GPA. The GPA is a global organization much like the World Trade Organization (WTO) for trade between nations, the World Health Organization (WHO) for health, or the European Union, North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFT), South American Community of Nations (SACON) for trade and economics. The GPA offers an efficient emergency response to help. The GPA is a short term solution, an immediate and efficient response to help. There are also long term solutions. As with the short term solution, the most significant long term solution is also related to the Scale of Global Rights. The Scale was entrenched in the Global Constitution and is thus the fundamental guide to Global Law. Now the Scale of Global Rights is a long term solution and is also a part of the Global Movement to Help of the Global Community. The Scale was designed to help all life on Earth. What would be preferable is that nations unite amongst themselves to help. Over time, we have seen the creation of the United Nations, the European Union, the South American Community of Nations, and the North American Free Trade Agreement. Except for the UN, these organizations are mainly concerned with trade and economics. The Global Community offers a more meaningful union in the form of nine or more Global Governments. For instance the South American Community of Nations can be a Global Government by simply accepting the Global Constitution as a way of dealing between member nations. A Global Government is concerned not only with economics and trade, but also with the environment, health, agriculture, energy, food, social, cultural and many other essential aspects. The Federation of Global Governments is the place of meeting between Global Governments. The very first step of the Federation, and maybe the only one for several decades ahead of us, would be the approval of essential services amongst the participating member nations. The Global Community has researched and developed such services and listed them here. All of them are already in operation on a small scale. Introduction Key words: Global essential services, Global Community, Federation of Global Governments, Global rights, Scale of Global Rights, global citizens, Global Parliament, Global Protection Agency (GPA), Global Information Media (GIM), Earth Government, Earth Executive Council, House of Elected Representatives, House of Advisers, Global Ministries, Ombudspersons Office, volunteering for the Global Community, Global Community Assessment Centre (GCAC)	Read
May 1, 2008	Global Rights year one Letter to the Global Community sent by Germain Dufour Spiritual Leader of the Global Community Global Rights year one is new impetus of the Global Community to educate everyone about the need for a change in thinking and of doing things amongst all nations. We need to realize what is a priority, what is the most important, and what is the least important for our survival. We need a clear vision. We need a common vision. And we must all change! There are many important aspects of our lives we can longer do, or should never do anymore. They are destructive. Humanity and all life can no longer afford activities that destroy life and the global environment. And there are other activities we must do, certainly thousands of them, to assure the survival of life on Earth. In view of the planetary state of emergency we all must change, we must do things differently to give life on Earth a better survival chance. And this is what Global Rights year one is about: to establish global fundamentals and a clear vision to follow. Perhaps the Scale of Global Rights represents the strongest pillar of our vision.	Read
September 26, 2007	Global Community 22 nd Year Anniversary by Germain Dufour, Spiritual Leader of the Global Community Twenty two years ago the Global Community organization was created. Today the world is seeing the amazing accomplishments of the Global Community. Back in 1985, I remember having accomplished my first 'soft activism'. It was such a memorable day for me as I actually stood up for a worthy cause: humanity, all life on Earth, and the protection of the global life-support systems. Being a scientist I extended my principles to include standing up for them in public. This was in Calgary, Alberta, Canada. And the day was October 29. I was born again that day! Standing up for what I believed in very strongly! I produced a brochure explaining everything I stood up for. Those who know me can easily imagine how meticulously long the brochure may have been. Then I went to the University of Calgary campus and distributed the brochure to anyone I met. I also posted the brochure on bulletin boards. My first very intense exploration of my own capability of reaching out to others and standing up for workable sound solutions to global problems. That day I became one with myself and all life on Earth. I became 'a Global Community'.	Read
