ABOUT
VERA CITY
“Vera”
translates to truth or faith, therefore Vera
City is a place of openness and transparency. It is a venue where
members can have faith in the veracity of fellow members,
while collaborating on activities having mutual benefit.
“The world is upheld by the veracity of good men (women):
they make the earth wholesome.” “Life is sweet and
tolerable only in our belief in such society.”
-- Ralph Waldo Emerson
Vera-City offers a venue for meeting others who are engaged in community building activities globally. It is a social
networking device for organizing diverse collaborative communities of
affinity, with the goal of a velvet revolution in support of Main
Streets, using disruptive innovations designed to return economic
strength and wellbeing to our communities.
The goal of Vera City is to provide an antidote to the
destructive nature of the present failed zeitgeist based
on scarcity (Scar City), and to create a new future based on abundance.
This is a call to action to start now to fulfill this
future.
The future
is already here
– it's just not
evenly distributed. -
William
Gibson, quoted in The Economist, December 4, 2003
