Mission

We are at a moment in human history when the dominant questions are no longer national, economic, social or even ecological alone. The questions are interconnected, planetary, cosmic. What forms of intelligence are co-shaping our future? What kind of human maturity is required to navigate what comes next? How do we move from fragmented agendas to shared planetary stewardship, from warring tribes to a single species consciously acting harmoniously with itself and with the larger ecosystem? How do we begin to understand citizenship not just as national, or even planetary, but as a sense of belonging to the cosmos?

Across the globe, humanity is being challenged to expand its understanding of intelligence — both our own and that which exists beyond us in nature, in AI, and in technologically advanced non human intelligences present in our world. These four intelligences — human, nature, artificial, cosmic —  are converging in ways that demand new frameworks of education, scientific exploration, spirituality and public engagement. The central reality of our time is that we are not alone and we cannot make it alone. We have four intelligences and one future we must co-create together. This endeavor represents a new paradigm for human identity and humanity’s relationship with the larger ecology of life. 

We envision a global network of Centers for Planetary Intelligence designed as sanctuaries for this level of inquiry. A place where natural intelligence — the wisdom of the Earth and its indigenous traditions — can stand alongside artificial intelligence, not in opposition but in dialogue. A place where spiritual cosmologies can meet astrophysical realities in pursuit of a post-Contact ethic. A place where scientists, mystics, diplomats, technologists, artists, elders and youth can sit together, not to debate ideology but to fathom the reality that we are not alone and that we cannot make it alone, that we must steward a coherent planetary vision with intelligences distinct from us who are here to enable us to fulfill our greatest potential.
