WorldHealer Origins and Concept

The WorldHealer Concept
Conciliatio Nostri was the first name intended, meaning - Bringing People Together For Good.

Desmond Tutu wrote about Ubuntu, an African philosophy which promotes 'I am, because we are'. If you have ubuntu, you have a positive attitude, and, in his words you "are open and available to others, affirming of others, you don't feel threatened that others are able and good and you have a proper self-assurance that comes from knowing that you belong in a greater whole."

This Wiki will be a place for sharing this collective affirmation: here, all people could share their good ideas and their solutions. Above all the wiki will act as a resource for making public and also for finding practical ways to improve our world. It will act in this way, its pages providing support and encouragement, because its editors all agree with the wiki's mission.

We know that there are many political, development and ecology wikis available now, but they are specific and often have a world view related only to their specialism. This wiki will avoid proscribing or describing the way to achieve global improvement, will avoid prioritising different needs as more or less important than others, and would promote instead the individual reader's ability to search for, find, apply and finally edit the method statements for furthering good.

To begin the wiki, the first editors will draw on accounts of proven successes in the fields of Community and Neighbourhood, Creativity, Human Rights, Fair Trade, our Environment, Developing Nations, Health, Peace, Citizenship and Young People.

For example, one page under 'Environment' may give practical guidance on reducing your carbon dioxide footprint at home, and will grow over time with success stories, external and internal links, ideas for progressing to a new level of achievement, encouragement and so on.

We know this can work, because we can see that there is a huge demand for support in personal development, for developing into the best person we can be, and for finding meaningful self fulfilment in doing something good. On these pages, we represent no particular denominational grouping of people, and while we submit copy here, our only common link of significance to this wiki is our mission (below).

Thank you very much for taking the time to read this description and the mission statement. We really hope you like it.
