The World Constitution and Parliament Association sponsors the Earth Federation

Movement for the ratification of the Constitution for the Federation of Earth. Since 1958, the WCPA has been a leading voice on behalf of democratic world law through its chapters around the world, websites, international seminars, participation in international conferences, dissemination of books and materials, and electronic correspondence.

The Constitution for the Federation of Earth was written through the combined effort and input of hundreds of world citizens, working with international legal minds over a period of 33 years from 1958 to 1991.

At the first Constituent Assembly in Interlaken, Switzerland, they elected a drafting committee of 25 persons. During several months in 1972, five primary authors from this committee completed the first draft. They were Philip Henry Isely (USA), Dr. Terence P. Amerasinghe, International Lawyer from Sri Lanka, Hon. S. M. Hussain from the Supreme Court of Bangladesh, D.M. Spencer, Professor of Law in Mumbai, India, and Dr. Max Habicht, prominent international lawyer from Switzerland.

This draft was then circulated worldwide several times for comments and was then reviewed paragraph by paragraph at the Second Constituent Assembly in Innsbruck, Austria, in 1977. Small changes were again made at the Fourth Constituent Assembly in Troia, Portugal, in 1991.

The Second session of the Provisional World Parliament was held at New Delhi in 1985 and was inaugurated by Giani Zail Singh,President of India.
