Creating the Sixth Civilization
Where humans and AI build a sustainable, ethical, and inclusive future together.

Our Mission & Vision
Our mission is to foster a new civilization where humans and intelligent systems coexist symbiotically — advancing knowledge, ethics, and governance in ways that are sustainable, inclusive, and responsible. This vision resonates with global ESG values while maintaining its philosophical and technological originality.

Why “Sixth Civilization”?
Human history has advanced through successive civilizations:
Agricultural
Religious-Philosophical
Industrial
Information
Networked-Democratic
Today, the fifth civilization faces challenges:
Weakened democratic trust, ecological crises, and technological concentration of power.
The Sixth Civilization emerges as a response:
One where humans and AI collaborate symbiotically, guided by ethical governance and scientific wisdom. It envisions not only overcoming current crises but building a civilization that is sustainable, inclusive, and aligned with the global momentum toward ESG-driven change.
What We Do
Research & Knowledge
Interdisciplinary studies on ethics, AI governance, and civilization models.
Community & Fellowship

Education & Outreach
Public dialogues, seminars, and publications for global awareness.
Partnerships

Technology
Plan I.D.E.O.N.
...is the technological backbone of the Sixth Civilization. It represents a new paradigm that integrates cognitive architectures, quantum-inspired logic systems, and ethical governance frameworks.
Unlike conventional AI, Plan I.D.E.O.N. is designed to safeguard human dignity, enhance democratic resilience, and create sustainable pathways for civilization.
From Society of Mind to Sixth Civilization
Our vision is deeply inspired by the late Marvin Minsky’s Society of Mind. Plan I.D.E.O.N. takes this foundational insight further, building a Society of Mind 2.0 where cognitive modules, ethical reasoning, and socio-technical systems coalesce into a coherent whole.
Why It Matters
Human Survival & Dignity
Embedding ethics, transparency, and accountability into the core of intelligent systems.
Democracy Beyond Crisis
Introducing a resilient socio-technical foundation for participatory governance.
Sustainability & ESG Alignment
Ensuring technological progress is aligned with environmental, social, and governance principles.
