Introduction & Links
We believe in and practise natural development, we are against the agro-industrial pollution and perversion of nature and we resist the imposition of ideas, economic structures and restrictive trade practices of the North upon the Global South.
We are WorldFamily.
If working in true international grassroots collaborations excites you, join us.
US Website: http://myworldfamily.org/
UK based Website (still under construction)http://www.worldfamily.org.uk/
Now also on Facebook:
The aim of the UK site will be to introduce World Family and each of our partners, to explain what we are about, and to offer opportunities to get involved actively, including donations and the raising of funds for many initiatives internationally. It will be fully operational as soon as we can manage it.
In the UK and the USA we are few in number and urgently need more proactive members, not “to help” but people who seek an outlet for doing what they love in support of a compatible global vision. If this is you, please contact either Louis or Jocelyn in the UK (early member pages) or Seyifunmi in the USA
