If you are interested in creating/coordinating a chapter in your area, here are some guidelines to get started with:

Chapter Guidelines

• At least two or more people that wish to meet on a semi regular basis around the tenets of TZM.
• An understanding of the Movement's Orientation Guide or Orientation Video
• Relevance: Chapters exist to discuss and promote awareness of The Zeitgeist Movement and our educational imperatives.
• Official Chapter's maintain a website of membership and events. We have a chpater platform to recommend and can help you get online.
• We ask that any website used in an official capacity stay relevant to what TZM is about. (i.e. No outside organization advertising, projects or agenda's as the homepage focus)
• Participate in an online meeting at least once a month.  ZMCA meetings are in Teamspeak.
• Stay in communication with the California coordinator (monthly update)
• Connect the Network: As an official chapter please link back to ZMCA.org on your site and your chapter will be listed on the Chapter's Page.

As a Chapter Coordinator: You express, through your desire to take on the role, that you advocate the points above. Coordinator positions get re-posted as OPEN if a coordinator becomes unresponsive email requests from the CA Coordinator, does not provide feedback via the chapter update form, or the chapter becomes dormant (little to noactivity or communication)

*It is not necessary to maintain official status, some people don't have time, or some wish to create a chapter for other purposes (i.e. green movements, transition towns, building a city, a social club, etc).  These avenues are open to all but are not what TZM Chapters are about.  Please keep that in mind as you move forward.  The Zeitgeist Movement advocates the root-cause recognition of negative social outcomes via the monetary/market system, and advocates the logical direction of a global, Resource-Based Economic model.
