2. Terms and Conditions for Membership

By joining the Better World Makers Network ("Network"), you agree to the following terms:

  1. Compliance with Vision, Mission, and Values
    • You commit to uphold the Network’s Vision, Mission, and Values in all actions, words, and decisions related to Network projects.
    • If the Network’s Management Team reasonably determines, after a transparent investigation, that you have violated these principles, your participation in affected projects may be terminated. The investigation process will include: (a) written notice of the alleged violation, (b) an opportunity to respond within 14 days, and (c) a documented decision. You may appeal the decision to an independent Network review panel within 30 days.
  2. Membership Shares and Consequences of Violation
    • In the event of a confirmed violation, your rights tied to Network project shares (e.g., voting in governance bodies) will be suspended pending resolution.
    • The Network may sell your suspended shares to another member at a fair market value, determined by an independent valuation process agreed upon by the Management Team and disclosed to you. Proceeds will be transferred to your account within 30 days of sale. While the sale price is final within Network governance, this does not waive your legal rights to seek judicial review where permitted by applicable law.
  3. Use of Network Platform
    • You agree not to use the Network’s platform, resources, or member contacts to initiate or conduct projects with other members outside the Network’s governance structure, unless explicitly approved by the Management Team. This does not restrict your personal activities unrelated to the Network.
  4. Transparency and Governance
    • You will provide relevant project-related information reasonably requested by the Network to ensure compliance with its governance standards and applicable laws. Personal data will be handled per the Network’s Privacy Policy.
  5. Duty to Projects and Conflict of Interest
    • You (or your representative) will act in the best interests of any Network project you join, prioritizing collective goals over personal gain beyond agreed-upon benefits (e.g., fair compensation).
    • If a potential conflict of interest arises, you will promptly disclose it in writing to (a) the project’s governance body and (b) the Network’s Project Management Office (PMO) Team. The PMO Team will review and issue a binding decision within 14 days, ensuring fairness and alignment with Network Values.
  6. Dispute Resolution
    • In case of disputes arising from your membership or project participation, you agree to first submit the matter to the Network’s arbitration process, conducted by a neutral panel appointed by the Management Team. A decision will be provided within 60 days.
    • If dissatisfied with the outcome, you may pursue legal action, provided you have exhausted this process and have a reasonable basis for escalation.
  7. Purpose and Scope of Membership
    • Membership is designed to foster collaboration among like-minded individuals in a supportive environment, maximizing opportunities for co-creation and minimizing risks of disputes. It does not establish an employer-employee, agent-principal, or any other legal relationship that holds the Network liable for your actions or authorizes you to act as its representative.
    • The Network is not responsible for individual member conduct outside its governance framework
