01
GovernanceDraft constitution

Jowih Foundation · Draft Constitution

A proposed governing instrument for the Foundation, its mission, governance safeguards and development mandate.

  • Mission: accelerate development through the Great African Grid; the document explicitly says GAG is not a political union or supranational authority.
  • Four pillars: communities and basic needs; digital opportunity and youth; African research and innovation; and future capabilities.
  • Proposed division between the Foundation, Purpose Trust, Founder Family Trust, Holdings, Group and operating companies.
  • Controls proposed for donations, direct milestone disbursement, donor due diligence, audit, transparency and community participation.
  • ADFA project models, CDE delivery, data protection, political neutrality, safeguarding and asset-lock provisions.
  • The document identifies itself as a draft; registration, enforceability and compliance require independent legal review.
02
ArchitectureArchitecture overview

Jowih Master Summary

An organization-level overview connecting the proposed institutional, infrastructure, digital and funding architecture.

  • Explains the institutional layers from Foundation and trusts through Holdings, Group, GAG, ASTA OS, ADFA and funding.
  • Summarizes the seven GAG corridors, four Foundation pillars, community CDE model and long-horizon planning.
  • Distinguishes pre-launch donations from the proposed Grid Bond and the later proposed regulated Ecosystem Fund.
  • Connects transport, industry, energy, digital systems, payments, human services and space capability.
  • Contains future plans and financial examples; these should not be read as current operations or offers.

GovernanceProposed register

Governance & Appointment Register

A proposed governance and appointment architecture across stewardship, oversight, Foundation management, trusts and commercial execution.

  • Separates advisory, governing, executive, oversight and external professional roles.
  • Describes proposed stewardship, Board of Governors committees, Independent Auditor General, external auditor and Combined Trusts Board.
  • Separates Foundation administration from Holdings, Group and operating-company management, including distinct New Dawn City governance.
  • Defines regional coordination, country representation and participation structures.
  • Lists offices and appointment categories; it is not evidence those positions are filled.
04
TechnologyProposed technical architecture

ASTA OS · System Architecture

A detailed design for a digital-physical interoperability layer that can connect independently operated services.

  • Ten proposed layers, from physical infrastructure, connectivity and identity through APIs, applications, AI and user experience.
  • Details identity, accounts, credentials, permissions, trust, payment, commerce, messaging, mobility, logistics and data rails.
  • Non-capture principle: partners may retain their brands, systems, customers and data.
  • Describes API/SDK and partner gateway models, developer tooling, security controls and phased implementation.
  • Security, data sovereignty, consent and jurisdictional compliance are design requirements, not claims of live certification.
05
FinanceProposed operating model

Jowih Credits · Operational Framework

A proposed partner-executed cross-border settlement bridge, distinct from domestic currency and speculative crypto-assets.

  • Defines user, partner and Foundation treasury wallets, plus auto-conversion, optional holding, credit-routed FX and wallet-transfer modes.
  • The proposed principle is bridge-only use: domestic spending converts to local currency rather than introducing a parallel currency.
  • Licensed PSPs, banks and other approved partners are intended to handle conversion; the Foundation is not to provide fiat on/off-ramp services.
  • Covers reserve backing, fees, liquidity, holding periods, AML/KYC, data protection, API integration, dispute handling and audit reporting.
  • Licensing, reserves, partner agreements and payment services are proposed and are not represented as active.
06
InvestmentProposed architecture · not an offer

Ecosystem Investment Architecture

A proposed regulated investment and asset-vaulting blueprint, separate from the donation-led structural pre-launch.

  • Separates use, integration and investment as distinct participation paths.
  • Proposes a Mauritius VCC with independent administration, valuation, custody, audit, licensing and segregated sub-funds.
  • Describes the Jowih 100 expanding toward 500 and a proposed 30% Core / 70% Partner commercial allocation.
  • Explains non-voting units, asset eligibility, valuation-weighted participation, Treasury capacity and a separate neutral reserve.
  • Includes a proposed land acquisition/settlement facility with cash, independent valuation, community consultation and legal safeguards.
  • The standalone Master Ecosystem Fund blueprint is contained in this investment-architecture paper; no separate Master Fund PDF was supplied.
  • Financial figures are expressly illustrative; there is no current investment offer, fund license or guaranteed return.
07
Continental developmentProposed framework

The GAG Initiative · Continental Framework

A broad proposed development framework bringing together infrastructure, economic coordination, public services and community participation.

  • Seven corridors operate in parallel: transport, industry, energy, digital, payments, services and space capability.
  • Describes voluntary state-level ADFA agreements and state-funded, Foundation-funded or jointly funded project models.
  • Sets out CDEs, the Comrade Hub, country budgeting, health, education, housing, energy and infrastructure frameworks.
  • Includes long-range horizons, New Dawn City concepts, proposed acquisition plans and illustrative financial targets.
