<br>
In this ZNet Update mailing we convey a message from the activists of a new
International Project for a Participatory Society (</span></font><font
face=Calibri><span style='font-family:Calibri'>IPPS). Born out of Z Sessions on
Vision and Strategy this new project starts with a membership of 59 activists
from 18 countries. Here is their announcement...<br>

<p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:10.0pt'><font size=3 face=Calibri><span
style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:Calibri'>June 1 - 6, 2006 about thirty five
people from eleven countries assembled in Woods Hole, <st1:State w:st="on"><st1:place
w:st="on">Massachusetts</st1:place></st1:State> for what was called Z Sessions
on Vision and Strategy. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:10.0pt'><font size=3 face=Calibri><span
style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:Calibri'>Each day we had four sessions,
each with a presenter, someone to comment, and then discussions. Everyone who
presented at one of these sessions also attended the other presentations.
Beyond the many sessions, we of course also socialized and explored ideas and
commitments. Everyone boarded at a nearby friendly motel and ate at an also
nearby famous oceanographic institution cafeteria. The focus was “what we
want” and “how we get it”--not for the short term and for
narrow issues, but rather for the long term and more comprehensive issues. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:10.0pt'><font size=3 face=Calibri><span
style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:Calibri'>Sessions ranged from kinship vision,
through political vision, into international relations, and cultural and also
economic vision. Issues of organization, program, lessons from current
experiments and struggles around the world and especially ideas about long-term
vision and strategy were highlighted. For more on ZSVS, please see the site: </span></font><a

<p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:10.0pt'><font size=3 face=Calibri><span
style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:Calibri'>Perhaps the most notable and
unusual attribute of this gathering was the extent to which, in just a few
days, a tight and inspiring solidarity emerged among those attending who
discussed all manner of topics, but beyond sharing ideas, also developed a
sense of shared commitments. This solidarity, in turn, fueled a desire to
maintain ties and to expand our efforts. Thus was born what we called the
International Project for a Participatory Society or IPPS (</span></font><a

<p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:10.0pt'><font size=3 face=Calibri><span
style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:Calibri'>IPPS was not to be a vanguard or a
party of any kind. Rather, IPPS was to be a growing group of people, united
initially by shared views and an intense few days of discussion and debate,
coming together to continue their individual, joint, and collective work on
behalf of winning a better world. The group settled easily on an IPPS mission
statement:<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

font-family:Calibri'>The International Project for a Participatory Society
(IPPS) is a group of people concerned with inspiring, facilitating, and
supporting efforts to develop, share, and promote vision and strategy for
attaining a new participatory society. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:0in;margin-right:0in;margin-bottom:
10.0pt;margin-left:.5in'><font size=3 face=Calibri><span style='font-size:12.0pt;
font-family:Calibri'>IPPS stands for a classless economy based on
self-management and equality, for democratic and participatory politics, and
for the elimination of patriarchy, racism, and all other hierarchies and
oppressions.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

font-family:Calibri'>IPPS seeks to elaborate a vision of a participatory
society in order to demonstrate that there is an alternative to current race,
gender, political, environmental, and other injustices.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:10.0pt'><font size=3 face=Calibri><span
style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:Calibri'>IPPS membership began as everyone
who actually attended the Sessions in June, but agreed that we would also
invite those who had been invited to the sessions but were unable to attend
them. Beyond that group, it was agreed that additional people could begin
working with IPPS via contacts and friends at any time, but that “official”
membership would be decided/ratified at yearly meetings – and that the
next such meeting would occur on or around the U.S. Social Forum next Summer. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:10.0pt'><font size=3 face=Calibri><span
style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:Calibri'>At the Z Sessions, beyond agreeing
on a name and mission statement for IPPS, we also decided a project definition,
basic principles/values, a date for the next policy meeting at the US social
forum next summer, and to present a Participatory Society program at that
forum.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
