International Simultaneous Policy Organisation

International Simultaneous Policy Organisation

"Simpol is the shorthand expression for the organisations that promote the Simultaneous Policy (Simpol).

"Simpol refers to the Simultaneous Policy, the package of measures to be implemented by all governments simultaneously to address global problems. Simpol also refers to the adoption campaign, the political process to secure the policy’s implementation.

"Anyone can become involved in the campaign by signing up as an Simpol Adopter, which is free of charge. The policy content of Simpol is discussed, developed and ultimately approved by Adopters. In each country Adopters elect a Policy Committee to oversee this process.

"At national level, national Simultaneous Policy organisations (NSPOs) in each country provide information, resources and support to Adopters for promoting the campaign and for developing the policy content of Simpol. Each NSPO is accountable to a Board of Trustees elected by its members. Adopters can become members, usually by paying a fee and members agree to accept the organisation’s Founding Declaration.

"At international level, the International Simultaneous Policy Organisation (ISPO) co-ordinates the Simpol campaign and facilitates the formulation of Simpol’s policy content at the global level. ISPO is accountable to its NSPO members who agree to accept ISPO’s Founding Declaration."
