OpenCivics convenes and facilitates a civic innovation network of leaders, innovators, change agents, and public servants actualized in service to the public good. Together we form a research and development consortium by connecting projects and organizations in an open collaborative ecosystem. This decentralized institution utilizes collaborative design and governance processes to generate actionable solutions to outstanding public needs and critical civilizational challenges.

Through synchronizing independent actors in their shared purposes and creating synergy through frameworks of agreement that promote trust and transparency, OpenCivics empowers a return to the origin of civics as the sacred and shared responsibility to engage the public in co-creating a viable human civilization.

Mission

The mission of the OpenCivics Network is to provide scaffolding for the coordination, collaboration, alignment, and funding of civic innovators devoted to the realization of a vital, resilient, and participatory civilization.

By directly engaging the public in the design and implementation of civilization redesign, OpenCivics is dedicated to building coordination infrastructure for applied action.

Vision

We see a world in which innovators work together to create the foundational transition and post-transition utilities, processes, functions, cultures and works necessary for humanity to successfully move into the next phase of its evolution without destroying the substrate of living systems upon which we depend.
