A new vision for our century
The 21st century won’t be remembered for artificial intelligence, self-driving cars, or spaceships that fly to Mars.
It will be remembered as the century where we used over two millennia of accumulated knowledge to make life for human beings healthy, happy, and fulfilling within healthy, balanced, and flourishing ecosystems on planet Earth.

Three common Principles
System21 is an open network of people, organizations, companies, collectives, communities, and movements who are building a new system for the 21st century.
We are united by three common principles:
1. Sincere Respect for Humanity
We share a sincere concern for the incomparable value of every human being. We therefore work to build a system that takes care of all of us.
2. Sincere Respect for our Planet
We acknowledge that our planet and its natural ecosystems constitute the best environment for us to live in. We therefore work to build a system that enables these natural ecosystems to thrive.
3. Sincere Respect for Diversity
We embrace and defend the diversity of cultures and ways of human existence and accept no discrimination or marginalization. And we embrace the fact that working on a new system requires a diversity of tools, technologies, and approaches.
