Petition to the Governing Board (GB) and International Advisory Council (IAC)

 

So far, over 350 concerned Auroville residents have signed a petition to te GB and IAC expressing their profound discontent with the recent actions and policies implemented by the GB-FAMC and their loss of confidence in the GB-FAMC’s ability to effectively manage the community’s finances and assets. The petitioners also expressed their disagreement that the GB-FAMC and GB-BCC members and the members of other subsidiary groups have not been selected by the community.

The petitioners demand the resignation of all members of the GB-FAMC; the immediate cessation of the GB-FAMC’s harmful practices and policy implementation; a full and transparent investigation into the GB-FAMC’s management of community finances and assets; and the establishment of a new, transparent, and accountable body for managing Auroville’s finances and assets, with strong community representation and oversight.

The petitioners urge the GB and IAC to immediately take steps to address the concerns and implement necessary reforms.
