GlobalVEDA | Reimagining Governance for a New Era

Rooted in the Past. Wired for The Future.

What is GolbalVEDA?

GlobalVEDA is a not-for-profit international initiative reimagining governance, elections, and civic engagement by blending ancient wisdom; like the Mandala and Civitas frameworks, with modern tools like AI, big data, and grassroots action. Our mission is to build more inclusive, transparent, and participatory systems by bridging timeless principles with cutting-edge innovation.

The Four Pillars of Action

SETU

Collaboration & Tool Exchange

Democracies around the world are tackling the same challenges in silos, often duplicating efforts without shared tools or knowledge. SETU creates an open bridge for civic innovators to exchange scalable solutions, collaborate across borders, and build collective power through open-source tools and shared infrastructure.

JAGO

Civic Mobilization & Voter Turnout

As voter turnout declines and trust in democratic systems weakens, citizens are becoming increasingly disengaged. JAGO reignites public participation through creative civic campaigns, digital tools, and grassroots action, bringing people back to the ballot and back into the democratic conversation.

GYAN

Research, Indexes & Democratic Insight

Many global indexes and reports fail to reflect the lived realities of diverse democracies, especially in the Global South. GYAN generates inclusive, data-rich insights through locally grounded research and transparent methodologies, creating democratic indicators that actually reflect the world as it is.
