## What is this?

Pursuance is open source software that enables individuals to organize in the pursuit of shared goals.

Individuals and/or existing organizations can form or join a “pursuance” to work toward a common goal.

Pursuances combine secure task management and discussion features, allowing newcomers to quickly get up to speed and enabling productive team-wide collaboration.

Pursuances can interact with each other, cooperating on shared goals or assigning tasks to one another.

Pursuance makes the collaborative efforts of all kinds of decentralized groups more effective.
