How Initiatives Work Inside GLC
Every GLC initiative operates through our dual Consortium–Collective structure:
The Consortium Layer
Research partnerships, academic collaborations, policy interfaces, and evidence-based standards. This is where we engage with institutions, conduct rigorous research, and develop frameworks that influence systems.
The Collective Layer
Community archives, storytelling networks, survivor advocacy, public education, and grassroots engagement. This is where lived experience meets collective action — where communities shape the work.
Shared Principles Across All Work
- Memory with dignity — Honoring lived experience and historical truth
- Justice through transparency — Accountability mechanisms built into everything
- Accessibility by design — Universal access as foundation, not afterthought
- Community-responsible — Those affected have a voice in decisions
Cross-Initiative Synergies
Our initiatives don’t operate in silos — they reinforce each other:
- Memory ↔ Technology: Civil Memory archives inform Audia AI’s ethical frameworks
- Research ↔ Practice: Academic work shapes Clinician Companion resources
- Ethics ↔ Innovation: Governance principles guide all technology development
- Community ↔ Institutions: Lived experience and expertise work together
