The current OAU

EDIBLE FOREST OAU — Organization of African Unity through the Living. An idea for utopianization under structuring.

02

The African root

African territories, islands, diasporas: first imagined grounds for the proposal.

03

The diaspora

Potential global human network connecting Africa to every continent.

04

Imagined territorial banks

Each territory could progressively develop its own bank, according to the proposed methodological framework.

    Future EDIBLE FOREST OUM
    Organization of World Unity through the Living — does not yet exist
01

Global deployment

A possible implantation in non-African territories would first pass through diasporas, then through local cooperations.

02

Necessary conditions

Structured territorial banks, real cooperation network, method experimented in several territories, verified transmissions.

03

Utopian horizon — the future OUM

EDIBLE FOREST OUM — Organization of World Unity through the Living — represents a hypothetical long-term evolution. It does not exist. It describes the possibility that an idea born from Africa could one day be appropriated, transformed and applied by territories throughout the world.

04

What does not yet exist

The OUM is neither created nor legally established. It is the long-term vision of a network that could one day become genuinely global.
