Believing that in due time the peoples of the world shall be united for their common good and well-being, and that there shall be peace throughout the Earth:

We men and women of different lands, races and nationalities, see clearly that it is now required of some part of mankind to give social and political expression to such unity, as an example and incentive to our fellows, and as a means of promoting a true and universal comradeship.

Accordingly, we have joined together to create from ourselves and from all who shall be likeminded with us a new and independent people, whose prior allegiance and service is given to humanity, and whose character is representative of citizenship of the world.

We are embarked upon this course for compelling reasons. We are moved first of all by compassion for our fellows, whose peace of mind has been taken away by the perils, conflicts and uncertainties, of a period of unprecedented change in the conditions of life on this planet. We are conscious of the grave, but not insuperable, problems of adjustment to the requirements of living under a democratic world order. We see how new resources, means of transport and communication, of great benefit to mankind, have been converted through fear and suspicion into terrible instruments of hostility and mass-destruction. We see the temporary submergence of a sense of the real worth of every individual and the value of human life in a futile and self-defeating struggle both for sectional mastery and personal advantage. But we see also in many connexions and institutions, national and international, an expression of the highest aspirations, much nobility and concern for human needs and sufferings, and desire for peace, understanding, and mutual concord.

Confident that men will not endure subservience to any conditions, authorities, or systems, which impose upon them unnatural actions and restrictions of fellowship, and will always quest for a right application of knowledge to collective and civilized existence, we take courage to attempt, however fallibly and imperfectly, to establish at the level of government within the world of nations an Agency universal in its scope, impartial and just in its relations, defenceless in terms of armed force, designed exclusively for the well-being of all peoples without distinction.

We therefore, commending our enterprise to the goodwill of all persons and authorities, do now adopt this our Constitution, and proclaim in being as from this day and date the Commonwealth of World Citizens.

On behalf of the Constituent Assembly held at The Temple of Peace, Cardiff

28th day of August 1956

I. Principles

The Commonwealth of World Citizens acknowledges none as enemies, no matter what they may do; for to admit the existence of an enemy is to create a barrier, darkening understanding, breeding hatred, and giving encouragement and license to cruelty and inhumanity.
The Commonwealth of World Citizens recognizes none as foreigners, or of a lower dignity, since all belong to the same human race. There shall be identical treatment of those outside the Commonwealth as of those within it, treatment that is founded on reverence for the human personality.
The Commonwealth of World Citizens shall ever promote and actively assist measures for the welfare and equitable unification of mankind, and shall at all times respond to the extent of its ability to calls for aid in emergency or catastrophe.
Neither the Commonwealth, nor any of its citizens, shall under any circumstances engage in war or in preparation for war, or in aggression, oppression, or wilful misrepresentation. The Commonwealth of World Citizens shall ever hold itself free from all alliances, agreements and contractual obligations, whether open or secret, which can have the effect of favouring any group, party, section, or State, or any interests whatever, to the hurt or detriment of any others.
The Commonwealth of World Citizens shall study to be impartial and humane in all its relations and judgments, and shall labour in the cause of mediation and reconciliation.
The character of the Commonwealth is democratic and co-operative, based on mutual service and respect, holding all men in honour in public and private.
In its government and internal economy the Commonwealth of World Citizens shall continually seek to cultivate and display those standards of conduct which are equitable and just.

II. General Provisions

The Commonwealth of World Citizens is the sum total of persons holding its citizenship at any given time, without regard for colour or ethnic origin. In its political expression it is a free and self-governing people and world community.
The Commonwealth of World Citizens denies to itself the possession of a national homeland: the Earth is its homeland.
The citizens of the Commonwealth shall not be concentrated in one zone, country, or region, but as far as possible shall be distributed throughout the world, living in close association with the peoples of all lands.
The government of the Commonwealth shall be conducted from a series of administrative centres in various parts of the globe, by conferment upon the Commonwealth of concessionary or extra-territorial rights, or by virtue of any deed of gift or act of hospitality by any State in accordance with any precedents and international usages, or otherwise by consent of the territorial Powers concerned.
The Commonwealth of World Citizens shall not possess armaments or armed forces, or engage in the manufacture of weapons of war or any instruments of mass destruction, or hold or harbour such instruments manufactured by others. The Commonwealth shall rely wholly for the security of its citizens and property on the goodwill of nations and respect for its principles and character.
In all international disputes or conflicts the Commonwealth of World Citizens shall maintain a strict impartiality.
The Commonwealth of World Citizens shall not associate itself with or give direct or indirect support to the political parties of any State. Neither shall it promote or foster disaffection, revolution, or any subversive activities whatsoever. The Commonwealth regards itself, however, as in duty bound, without prejudice and in no antagonistic spirit, to direct the attention of governments and authorities to any violations of the fundamental human rights, or to conduct prejudicial to world order and good relations, or calculated to endanger peace, acting in such matters in the name of and on behalf of humanity.
Subject to the self-imposed limitations set forth in this Constitution the Commonwealth of World Citizens shall be entitled, within the sphere of its jurisdiction, to exercise those rights commonly enjoyed by self-governing peoples.
The Commonwealth of World Citizens shall be entitled to assume temporary sovereignty over any area or category of persons for humanitarian purposes by consent of the Powers and persons concerned.
On any lands over which the Commonwealth of World Citizens exercises sovereign jurisdiction it shall have the right to grant temporary or prolonged asylum to persons who apply for it on grounds that they are in physical danger as a result of attempted genocide. The continuance of asylum for a prolonged period shall depend upon the result of impartial investigation, and shall be subject to periodic review. Permanent domicile on lands of the Commonwealth shall not be granted to any persons, other than citizens of the Commonwealth, or for purposes solely of gain or profit.
The Commonwealth of World Citizens shall not amass wealth for its own sake. All funds and revenues received in excess of the reasonable requirements of administration shall be treated as trust funds and applied for the benefit of humanity. The Commonwealth shall not charge or receive interest on any loans made for humanitarian objects.
Since all are free to accept obligations towards the world community, the Commonwealth of World Citizens recognizes the right of others besides its own citizens to call themselves or to be called World Citizens. But such persons shall not be deemed to be subject to its jurisdiction or bound by the provisions of this Constitution. This applies equally to any World Citizenship organizations and to towns, villages, and areas of administration, not part of the Commonwealth, which by charter or otherwise have entered into a commitment of 'mundialization'. The possession of any document purporting to be a World Citizen passport or identity card acquired by any form of registration does not in itself entitle the holder to regard himself or to be regarded as a citizen of the Commonwealth. The Commonwealth of World Citizens shall not be held responsible for the conduct and actions of persons who have not acquired its citizenship and are not validly in possession of its papers of identification.
The Commonwealth of World Citizens shall recognize as binding upon it all rules of international law which are consistent with its Principles.
The Commonwealth of World Citizens shall continually remind itself of the objects for which it was constituted, and shall place the fulfilment of those objects before every other consideration. Nothing in this Constitution shall be regarded as of permanent force and validity if it should be found to impede or restrain the application of the Principles of the Commonwealth, and steps shall be taken as provided to effect whatever changes may be necessary.

III. Establishment of the Commonwealth

The Constitution shall require for its adoption acceptance by two-thirds of the citizens present and voting at a Constituent Assembly convened by the Provisional Secretariat, and to be held not less than four calendar months from the date of giving written notice and circulation of the text.

The taking of all steps necessary for the holding of the first Regional and General Elections.

The first elections under the Constitution shall be held not later than one year from the date of the proclamation of the Commonwealth, and the duly elected Central and Regional Administrations shall take over from the Acting Administration at the termination of the first General Assembly convened under the Constitution.

Any citizen whose citizenship has been suspended or withdrawn shall have the right at the public cost of appeal to the Supreme Council whose decision shall be final.
No person who has temporarily been suspended from the exercise of his citizenship rights, or has forfeited his citizenship, shall suffer any humiliating treatment or lack of respect for his human rights at the hands of any citizen or agency of the Commonwealth.
