The Charles Léopold Mayer Foundation for the Progress of Humankind (FPH) and the Assembly

The FPH has played a capital role in the history of the Alliance, in its birth and its development. In 1996, it made a commitment to the Allies to back the enlargement of the Alliance so it would include all socioprofessional spheres and to back the organization of the World Citizens Assembly. Given the ambition, the cost, and the difficulty related to the organization of such a world assembly, it was the only entity within the Alliance to be able to organize it from the logistics point of view. The International Facilitation Team of the Alliance supported the process throughout the entire course of preparation.

• A Short History of the Alliance
  1986 - 2001 - This history of the Alliance covers nearly fifteen years and two periods: 1986-1993, which preceded the birth of the Alliance, and 1994-2001, which constitutes the first cycle of its existence. An Alliance is made up of multiple initiatives and each Ally has their own history. This is therefore just an account that presents the beacons that led to the texts, methods, forms of organization, and events that gradually constituted the backbone of the Alliance as it can be seen, for example, on the Web site.
