The Unity Project

The Unity Project's goal is to empower the individuals, organizations and campaigns who seek positive change. At the moment, this community is loosely defined by separate names, such as: paranormal, ufology, consciousness, wellness, alternative, healing, environmentalism, sustainability, holistic, magick, and spirituality. We believe that we all share some fundamental beliefs and goals.

Our current work:

  1. brings together this community to define our common beliefs and goals
  2. identifies the issues facing this community, and proposes solutions to those problems,
  3. gathers the research and knowledge of this community in one place, and
  4. presents our community as a cooperative movement, rather than as competing individuals.

All other successful movements and campaigns around the world take advantage of these features to create a synergistic strength and effectiveness in their work, yet this community has not yet organized in such a way to create lasting change.

The Unity Project sets itself apart by resting upon a core ethical foundation and methodology:

  • our practices and guidelines are open-source;
  • we enhance and uphold individual privacy and sovereignty;
  • we seek only to bring about positive change in the world through collaboration and cooperation.
