OFFICIAL INTERNATIONAL PUBLIC STATEMENT

GLOBAL CONTINUITY INDEX (GCI)

A Proposed Framework for Peace, Human Dignity, Ecological Continuity, Ethical Technology, Intergenerational Responsibility, and the Long-Term Continuity of Human Civilization

02 June 2026

“Civilizational success should not be measured solely by what humanity achieves today. It should also be measured by what humanity preserves for tomorrow.”

PREAMBLE

Human civilization has entered an era of extraordinary scientific achievement, technological capability, economic interdependence, and global connectivity.

At the same time, humanity continues to confront profound challenges, including armed conflict, humanitarian crises, ecological degradation, biodiversity loss, climate-related instability, technological risks, widening inequalities, and growing uncertainty regarding the well-being of future generations.

The international community has developed valuable frameworks for measuring development, peace, environmental performance, and human welfare.

Yet a broader question increasingly emerges:

Are present generations preserving the conditions necessary for the peaceful, dignified, ethical, and sustainable continuity of civilization itself?

LEGAL AND INTERNATIONAL BASIS

• United Nations Charter

• Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR)

• International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights (ICCPR)

• International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights (ICESCR)

• UNGA Resolution 53/243 – Culture of Peace

• United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)

• UNESCO Recommendation on the Ethics of Artificial Intelligence (2021)

THE GLOBAL CONTINUITY INDEX (GCI)

The Global Continuity Index (GCI) is proposed as a conceptual framework intended to evaluate the extent to which institutions, policies, technologies, and social systems contribute to the peaceful and sustainable continuity of life, dignity, knowledge, cooperation, and civilization across generations.

ADDITIONAL CLARIFICATION

The GCI is intended to serve as a voluntary framework for reflection, research, education, and policy dialogue and should not be interpreted as a ranking, certification, accreditation, compliance, or legal assessment mechanism.

Its purpose is not to assign legal status, determine governmental legitimacy, evaluate sovereign rights, create institutional obligations, confer privileges, or establish any form of legal entitlement.

The GCI seeks to complement existing international indicators by providing an additional continuity-oriented perspective focused on the long-term preservation of civilization.

FOUNDATIONAL PILLARS OF THE GCI

Peace Continuity

Promotion of peace, diplomacy, and peaceful dispute resolution.

Human Dignity Continuity

Protection of rights, education, healthcare, and inclusion.

Ecological Continuity

Biodiversity, climate resilience, forests, oceans, and sustainability.

Ethical Technology Continuity

Responsible innovation, AI ethics, and human oversight.

International Cooperation Continuity

Scientific, humanitarian, environmental, and diplomatic cooperation.

Future Generations Responsibility

Long-term stewardship and preservation for future civilization.

FINAL DECLARATION

History often remembers civilizations by what they created.

Future generations may remember civilizations by what they preserved.

The Global Continuity Index respectfully invites humanity to consider whether long-term success should be measured not solely through growth, accumulation, influence, or technological achievement, but also through the preservation of peace, dignity, ecological stability, ethical responsibility, international cooperation, and the continuity of life itself.

“Aram is what united you and me.”
