CGS Member Spotlight

I was conducting research and happened upon CGS. What I found reflected my own views, values and aspirations for our world.... for our future!
Simon S.
World government is a manifestation of the world community and its desire to provide lawful governance for human survival and prosperity.
Evan F.
A world federation actually elected by Peoples of the world can be outstandingly instrumental in addressing global issues affecting us all - e.g. the climate crisis - without compromising nations' sovereignty.
Julieanna T.
World peace through world law remains the hope of humanity addressing the scourge of war. We can only address global threats successfully if we do it through democratically adopted world international laws and institutions.
Bill P.
My involvement in the World Federalist Movement was a result of a presentation given by the President, Norman Cousins, at Cornell University when I was a grad student.
Lee D.
I believe we must all work together to address global issues and threats to world peace.
Daviann M
A world federation can end war, protect the environment, and ensure basic human rights.
Benjamin U.
I was a high school debater and in my freshman year 1946-47 and the national debate topic was on whether the UN should be modified to become a democratic federal world government.

Join the CGS Action Network

The CGS Action Network is a separate 501(c)(4) organization focused on civic engagement and direct policy action. Action Network members mobilize to advocate for reform and influence the systems that shape our world.

Action Network membership is distinct from Education Fund membership:

    • Dues support direct lobbying and advocacy activities
    • Contributions are NOT tax-deductible
    • Members elect the Action Network board
    • Standard dues: $25/year | Student: $5/year

If you are primarily interested in supporting CGS’s educational programs and youth initiatives, the Education Fund membership above is the best fit. The Action Network is for those who want to be specifically involved in CGS’s legislative advocacy and lobbying work.
