VDP 154 - Designate VitaDAO as a Vitalist Organization

Summary

Formally declare VitaDAO a Vitalist Organization via agreement with the Vitalist Declaration.

Details

Vitalism is a moral and philosophical movement whose goals revolve around advocacy and political influence. The Vitalism Whitepaper put forth the north star goal of mobilizing 1% of global GDP into the fight against aging and death. Organizations and individuals can consider themselves Vitalist if they agree with the Vitalist Declaration:

1. Life and health are good. Death is humanity’s core problem, and aging its primary agent.
2. Aging causes immense suffering, and obviating aging is scientifically plausible.
3. Humanity should apply the necessary resources to reach freedom from aging as soon as possible.
4. I will work on or support others to work on reaching unlimited healthy human lifespan.
5. I will carry the message against aging and death.

Since its formation, VitaDAO has been acting in accordance with the Vitalist Declaration. By formally declaring our agreement with the Declaration and therefore declaring ourselves a Vitalist Organization, we gain access to a growing Vitalist network of organizations, entrepreneurs, scientists, and other individuals who are philosophically aligned and actively taking actions to achieve the goal.

Declaring VitaDAO a Vitalist Organization will help facilitate:

• Collaborating on initiatives with similar goals, such as VitaDAO’s network state goals and the Vitalism Foundation’s goal to facilitate longevity jurisdictions
• Contributing VitaDAO’s voices and opinions to the list of beneficial regulatory changes the Vitalism Foundation and politically-inclined Vitalists should support
• Mutual sharing of benefits between mobilized Vitalists and VitaDAO members
• Being listed as a Vitalist Organization in the Vitalism Foundation’s events and outreach
• Expanding our network to mobilized and dedicated Vitalists who are not familiar with the DAO
