Developing a Stewardship Model

Shared stewardship is a principle based on responsible allocation, management and oversight of resources to create sustainable value for the community, the environment and society at large.

This proposed management model conceptualizes the formation of a Nonprofit 501(c)(3) organization with shared stewardship as a key principle, while promoting a shared sense of responsibility and care for the community space. The suggested model is nonhierachical and prioritizes collective decision-making over concentrated power.

A nonprofit 501 (c)(3) is suggested as a legal framework considering its benefits while proposing a model that strives to imagine a framework that is more horizontal and transparent.
