PLENA Founder Authorship Declaration

Receipt ID: PLENA-HAP-0001
Work title: [insert exact title]
Work type: [essay / article / chapter / concept note / book section]
Author: Jean Claude Havyarimana
Declaration date: [insert date]

I declare that I am the human author responsible for the named work. I have preserved the available draft history and revision evidence in a private PLENA evidence binder. Public access to the full evidence binder is intentionally restricted to protect drafts, metadata, correspondence, and unpublished material.

AI-use disclosure: [insert one: no AI assistance was used / AI was used for brainstorming / AI was used for editorial refinement / AI was used for translation / AI was used for formatting / other].

This declaration does not ask any court, institution, publisher, employer, or public authority to accept the receipt automatically. It records a public, dated, human-accountable authorship claim that can be reviewed with the supporting evidence if needed.

Use only after review

Do not publish a declaration until the exact work, dates, AI-use statement, and evidence location are accurate.

Keep private evidence private

The public receipt can prove that a declaration exists without publishing the full draft chain.

Correct openly

If a public fact changes, add a correction note. Do not silently rewrite the public record.
