What is The Global Cooperation Project?

"No problem can be solved from the same level of consciousness that created it."

– Albert Einstein

The Global Cooperation Project exists to foster the birth of a new paradigm for world relations, in the context of the "prior unity" that underlies all existence. It is based on the ideas in the book Not-Two Is Peace by Adi Da [Read Adi Da's biography – Adi Da, The World-Friend .] (Read excerpts from Not-Two Is Peace.)

The initiative began in 2006, and actively invites the participation of people who resonate with both
	the need to address the global issues addressed by many serious commentators - from Rachel Carson, Samuel Huntington, Ervin Laszlo and Francis Fukuyama, to Al Gore, Paul Hawken, Malcolm Gladwell and Paul Collier - and with
	the profoundly new insights and solutions of Not-Two Is Peace.

"It is high time to move on: the hour of decision approaches. If a critical mass among us recovers the lived experience and the felt realization of our prior unity, we shall take action, and can await the hour of decision with confidence."

– Ervin Laszlo, "Introduction" to Not-Two Is Peace
