About

Global governance built by you. And her. And them.

A governance model fit for the 21st century

Unlike traditional institutions, the GCA is flexible. It can respond to emerging crises as they arise and address major issues based on what’s needed in the moment.

The GCA is dynamic – it adapts to emerging global issues such as:

  • Climate change – Exploring trade offs and finding common ground for a shared future.
  • AI governance – Ensuring ethical development of emerging technology.
  • Global health – Strengthening citizen-led responses to future pandemics.

Climate change

Finding common ground for a shared future

The climate crisis calls for transformative action that goes beyond COP negotiations - action grounded in the realities of people’s lives and the changes they need. Through global and local assemblies, the Global Citizens’ Assembly creates space for people – especially those most affected – to shape solutions on issues like climate justice and resilience. By finding common ground, the Assembly helps drive coordinated, lasting action toward a fairer, more livable world.

AI governance

Ensuring ethical development of emerging technology

Artificial Intelligence is advancing rapidly, raising concerns about ethics, privacy, and accountability. The Global Citizens’ Assembly can engage citizens in shaping AI policies, ensuring that decisions about automation, bias, and data security are guided by public interest – not just corporate or governmental priorities. A citizen-led approach will help create fair, transparent, and responsible AI governance.

Global health

Strengthening citizen-led responses to future pandemics

Health crises like pandemics demand inclusive, community-driven responses. The Global Citizens’ Assembly can focus on health equity, pandemic preparedness, and access to medical innovations, ensuring that policies prioritise public well-being over profit. By incorporating diverse perspectives, the Assembly will help create a fairer, more resilient global health system for the future.
