(b) Civic Labs publish public impact reports for corridor residents and treaty observers. (c) DSS, GRIX, and EWS jointly guarantee that declared civic value remains discoverable, auditable, and enforceable for the full term of the Nexus Fellowship Charter and its treaty extensions.

3.10 Cultural Attunement, Symbolic Bias Mitigation, and Ecological Coherence — Sovereign Legal Charter Provision

3.10.1 Corridor-Mandated Cultural Attunement Every Media Fellowship output must be culturally attuned to the specific social fabrics, Indigenous cosmologies, and community epistemologies of its corridor of origin and treaty-aligned nodes. (a) Scenarios must reflect corridor cultural norms, avoid symbolic distortions, and demonstrate narrative alignment with community storytelling conventions. (b) RDF scenario passports shall embed granular cultural taxonomy codes, community review signatories, FPIC confirmations, and narrative co-authorship lineages. (c) Civic Labs are legally obligated to audit cultural fidelity as part of quorum certification; DSS notarizes each cultural validation milestone for corridor and treaty auditability.

3.10.2 Symbolic Bias Safeguards and Narrative Stereotype Checks Each narrative must undergo a clause-governed symbolic bias assessment before corridor-wide deployment. (a) Fellows are required to map characters, motifs, and plot arcs against corridor bias indices and stereotype databases maintained by Civic Labs. (b) Scenario design must intentionally mitigate erasure, caricature, or misrepresentation of minority and Indigenous figures. (c) GRIX computes symbolic trust scores in real time; EWS dispatches corridor redline alerts if new forms of narrative bias emerge during runtime or user interaction.

3.10.3 FPIC as Binding Legal Precondition Free, Prior, and Informed Consent (FPIC) is non-negotiable for any scenario embedding spiritual teachings, clan histories, or community-owned symbols. (a) Indigenous Governance Boards hold binding veto power to halt scenario deployment at any lifecycle stage if FPIC is incomplete, expired, or proven deceptive. (b) FPIC sign-offs must be cryptographically embedded in RDF scenario passports and SPDX licensing blocks for immutable proof. (c) Breach of FPIC mandates immediate fallback DAG sandbox quarantine, AAP insurance restitution, corridor apology protocols, and possible NSF Tribunal intervention under UNCITRAL fallback arbitration.

3.10.4 Ecological Narrative Coherence and Corridor Bioregional Safeguards Outputs must uphold corridor ecological stewardship mandates and bioregional conservation principles. (a) Scenarios must not propagate narratives that encourage unsustainable practices, greenwashing, or ecological disinformation. (b) Civic Labs verify ecological truthfulness by cross-referencing scenario content with real-time biodiversity indices, carbon baselines, and corridor ecosystem reports. (c) GRIX assigns a live ecological trust delta to each scenario; EWS broadcasts immediate corridor alerts for any detected ecological misalignment.

3.10.5 Community Co-Review Rights and Restorative Correction Corridor communities, including elders, youth panels, and thematic cultural clusters, have standing to co-review all scenario drafts, forks, and runtime expansions. (a) Civic Labs must host periodic community validation workshops; scenario passports must log all co-review sign-offs and FPIC renewals. (b) Communities may demand scenario rewriting, motif alteration, or complete fork retraction if symbolic or ecological breach is demonstrated. (c) DSS archives co-review event logs and renders them discoverable for tribunal dispute resolution.

3.10.6 Prescriptive Symbolic Representation Guidelines Fellows must comply with corridor-issued symbolic representation frameworks. (a) Use of sacred symbols, oral histories, or ancestral characters requires explicit, documented community delegation and FPIC. (b) Narrative framing must avoid flattening diverse cultures into monolithic stereotypes. (c) Breach or narrative deviation results in scenario quarantine, breach restitution, and corridor-wide transparency via EWS broadcasts.

3.10.7 Live Runtime Bias Monitoring and Ethical Interventions Interactive and procedural narrative engines must embed symbolic bias scanning capabilities. (a) NE modules monitor runtime decision branches, audience-generated content, and emergent narrative threads for unanticipated bias or harmful cultural deviations. (b) EWS instantly flags anomalies and freezes scenario forks until Civic Labs conduct an emergency narrative audit. (c) GRIX recalibrates scenario symbolic trust scores dynamically based on live audience and community feedback streams.

3.10.8 Treasury Disbursement Conditioned on Attunement and Coherence Scenario milestone payouts and corridor Treasury disbursements are conditional on documented compliance with cultural attunement and ecological narrative coherence. (a) Fellows must present bias audit reports, FPIC records, and community co-review certificates with each funding milestone request. (b) Civic Labs are authorized to suspend payments or reclaim disbursed funds if breach is proven post-disbursement. (c) DSS notarizes financial compliance trails to ensure sovereign-level treaty alignment and corridor fiduciary transparency.

3.10.9 Sovereign Lifecycle Preservation and Revival Attestation The principles of cultural attunement, bias mitigation, and ecological coherence govern the scenario’s entire sovereign lifecycle: Draft → Community Reviewed → Quorum Certified → Runtime Monitored → Forked → Sandbox → Sunset → Archival → Revival (a) Sunset is legally contingent upon final community co-signature and ecological impact clearance. (b) All RDF lineage, FPIC attestations, and SPDX license trails persist post-sunset for tribunal discovery and treaty audits. (c) Revivals must undergo new cultural attunement audits, fresh FPIC approval, and updated ecological compliance checks before corridor redeployment.

3.10.10 Treaty Enforceability and Cross-Corridor Integrity Guarantees Scenarios that pass symbolic bias audits, maintain cultural fidelity, and demonstrate ecological coherence are accorded sovereign recognition across all Nexus corridors and treaty fallback forums. (a) RDF passports bind each scenario to corridor-specific legal regimes while ensuring treaty cross-portability under UNCITRAL fallback arbitration. (b) Civic Labs maintain public dashboards to display each scenario’s cultural attunement, symbolic trust level, and ecological coherence in real time. (c) GRIX, DSS, and EWS guarantee that corridor narrative sovereignty, community dignity, and planetary sustainability remain integral to the Nexus Fellowship Charter throughout its sovereign term and any future treaty extension cycles.
