1) We wish to declare the lands we inhabit as ownerless in a legally acceptable way. Our RCL Communities assume guardianship of the lands and peacefully seek full political autonomy.

2) Until 1) has been achieved, we see common ownership by local RCL Organizations that give us the legal right to stay on the land as a temporary solution. An RCL Organization will hold land and permanent structures in perpetual, irrevocable Trusteeship (preferred) or outright Ownership on behalf of the rainbow family (meaning all human beings), Mother Earth and all beings.

Each RCL Community must find solutions within the local legal system to set up RCL Organizations that operate as closely as possible to these ideals:

• The Organization must be recognized by the local legal system.

• Everyone present on the land have equal rights and responsibilities.

• Decisions are made by consensus of the community.

• The Organization does not borrow money.
