About the Declaration of Interdependence

Maybe it is time to create a Declaration of Interdependence to acknowledge that no one does it alone. For each of us to be where we are, there have been countless people and events who have come before. It is easy to lose sight of this in a culture that honors individuals’ accomplishments.
What might be available from creating a Declaration of Interdependence? My hope is that it would bring awareness to how we can all flourish more fully if we are willing to acknowledge that we are interdependent. We might also have a greater appreciation for each other. Herewith is a Declaration of Interdependence.

About Fractegrity

The term fractegrity came about by combining the two words “fractal” and “integrity”. Fractegrity strives to be a state of integrity at all levels – from the individual to the collective. Fractegrity recognizes that individual actions have broader impacts than we may realize. Individual actions, guided by integrity, create a ripple effect, impacting the collective and contributing to a balanced and harmonious world. This aligns with the understanding of interdependence, which emphasizes that individual choices and actions have consequences that extend beyond the self, influencing the well-being of others and the larger system. This gives us a better understanding of our role in affecting the whole, and empowers us to take action towards the goal of a healthier collective.

Fractegrity is a multifaceted concept that suggests integrity is not simply a personal attribute but a fundamental principle that governs the interconnected web of life. By understanding the relationship between collective and individual, cultivating personal integrity, and recognizing our shared responsibility for the well-being of the collective, we can contribute to a more integrated and harmonious world.
Fractegrity encompasses interconnectedness, highlighting how individual actions ripple outward, impacting the well-being of the collective. This understanding underscores the importance of individual responsibility in maintaining the integrity of the whole. When individuals act with integrity, they contribute to the strength and resilience of the interconnected web, promoting workability and resilience at all levels.
