The institutional architecture of Digital Freemasonry

One Foundation.Two Roles.One Purpose.

The Declaration establishes the authority. ODFC connects the Institution with its community. GL-FODF carries integration and implementation into practice.

Official Digital Freemasonry Community

The Community and Stewardship Layer

ODFC is the principal institutional community of the Digital Freemasonry ecosystem. It connects the founding principles with people, participation, education, communication and the continuing coherence of the wider architecture.

  • Membership
  • Education
  • Official Information
  • Communication
  • Community Participation
  • Ecosystem Stewardship

ODFC is more than the software platform through which the community is currently delivered.

  1. 01Institutional Primacy
  2. 02Separation of Functions
  3. 03Continuity
  4. 04Accountability
