FOUNDATION
[Te Tūāpū o Ngā Iwi o te Ao]
UNITED WORLD TRIBES FOUNDATION
[Te Tūāpū — The Foundation of the Tribes]
The United World Tribes Foundation is the support body of the assembly — a living vessel for the restoration, guardianship, and advancement of sovereign indigenous legacy. It unites the GAIN2U Network, the Credit-Ether contribution circles, the Affiliate Referral pathway, and the MCCP framework under one kaupapa [purpose].
Where the assembly gathers the whare, the Foundation tends the whenua [land]: it holds the internal genealogy register, the member support network, and the contribution plans that sustain the work of the tribes across generations.
Ko te tūāpū, ko te mana. The foundation upholds the sovereignty.
Pillar One
GAIN2U Network
[The Support Web — He Kupenga Tautoko]
GAIN2U is the internal support network of the Foundation — a web of members who care for one another across towns, nations, and the world. It is where a member, anywhere, can find a place where someone cares: mentorship, mutual aid, knowledge-sharing, and cultural restoration.
- • Member-to-member support and mentorship circles
- • Hometown presence and local gathering points
- • Knowledge exchange across iwi, nations, and cultures
- • Guardianship of living traditions and whakapapa
Pillar Two
Credit-Ether Plans
[Contribution Circles — Ngā Pūtea Tūāpū]
The Credit-Ether circles are the Foundation's tiered contribution plans. Each circle carries its own mana and privileges, sustaining the work of the tribes while honouring the contribution of the member. Plans are fulfilled securely through Base44 Payments.

Pillar Three

Pillar Four
MCCP
[The Existing Framework — Te Kaupapa Tūturu]
The MCCP framework remains unchanged and continues to operate within the Foundation as its established protocol layer. The existing MCCP information pages and toggle are preserved as-is. Foundation members of the Ariki circle may participate in MCCP proceedings as part of their stewardship role.
