The next decade will decide the agenda for the rest of the century. It is crucial that a new global agenda is developed based on a new way of understanding our future and our role in it as global citizens.
Governments and corporations face growing challenges while lacking the necessary capacity to tackle them. There is need for a radical new way of thinking, framing issues and making decisions; there is a need to find a new way of envisioning the future. Existing methods and tools to comprehend and ‘act’ on the future seem obsolete in the face of rapidly evolving challenges. |

The Whole is greater than the sum of the parts Globalisation requires new models that make decision-making effective at all levels: global governance, corporate governance and citizens’ decision-making. The Global Governance Model™ is a framework for multi-stakeholder collaboration, cooperation and dialogue, in order to achieve a more sustainable planet. With this model, we believe that we can better frame the key issues and trends in each global area and better communicate the importance of sound judgement and global understanding: every single decision taken in each area affects the rest of the areas, and, in turn the whole system. This forward-looking framework focuses on the interplay between governance and sustainability. It aims to deliver awareness about our role in the world as global citizens, through a change in awareness that allows sustainability to become a reality.
