Strategy

Common pool

Count resources in a common pool only when they can actually be raised, transferred and added to existing funding.

The proposal

Credit resources to the common pool only when the sequence from potential to collection, appropriation, transfer and additionality has been demonstrated.

How to read it

Sources identify relevant rights, methods, findings or precedents. They do not automatically establish the full World4Humans formulation. Where the project makes its own choice, that choice remains open to criticism and revision.

Sources and literature

Authority
World4Humans proposal informed by external precedents.
Relationship
Strong existing literature and previous work cover this component; the substantive overlap and transfer boundary still need to be delimited.
