The United Institutions has been in development for more than 10 years and has reached the implementation phase, with an established institutional development plan, strategic and institutional frameworks, infrastructure and component designs, program elements, real estate development, business incentives, development partners and a host of potential sites.

Locations being considered for UI Secretariat and World Forum include the new World Trade Center in New York City, being rebuilt after the events of September 11 2001, as well as a development next to the United Nations Headquarters on Manhattan's east side.

Development of the United Institutions is funded by voluntary contributions from institutions and people around the world, changing the world together as one.
