Collaboration: http://globaltable.org.uk/wp/basic-ccmj/2907-2Please add your comments on the issues and actions we appraise each week. Discussion is determined by those present. We are concentrating at this time on systemic change and the enabling contribution we are making in a bold bid to ‘a noble mission to make the earth a common treasury for us all’. NOTE various contributions from associates below.
The 2015 Constitutionalists Charter is an incremental, imperfect process of evolving a People’s Political Economy of Inter-Generational Trusteeship for the Earth in a context of Ecology and Evolution. It must dominate our thought and action in the months and years ahead. Please take time to follow this practical initiative, participating in what ever ways you can.
Thoughts encouraging collaboration……. “When individuals join in a cooperative venture, the power generated far exceeds what they could have accomplished acting individually.”— R.B.Fuller “You are not as drop in the ocean, but you are the entire ocean in a drop”.

WE CONTINUE REFLECTING on the value of these three perspectives in our quest for inclusive justice?
1. The Christian Council for Monetary Justice [CCMJ] – examining enduring wisdom and contemporary evidence about money and its effect on society – utilising resources of the enduring wisdom like current evidence, scriptures, histories, valued publications http://www.ccmj.org
2. London Global Open Table [LGOT] – providing an open forum for serving a wider network with a point of weekly reference. All are welcome to send items for ‘Matters in the Air’ to indicate where our dialogue and action might take in this particular week
3. The 2015Constitutionalists – advancing a targeted initiative by ‘principled pragmatism’ to take viable, if difficult, steps towards weaving politics and economics – governance and vital trading – into a Peoples Political Economy of Trusteeship, set in Harmony with Nature. NEWSCASTS each Monday on http://www.2015Constitutionalists.uk alternate between understanding systemic change and reporting on issues that must find hard-coding for their inclusive contribution to the whole system. TheNewscast appears on the Home page on Mondays and is then also on Youtube.
Inevitably there is overlap between each mode of approach. Each and all add richness to our searching and our action in the public arena.
