why.
seven to eight years ago, as a citizen, I wondered why there wasn’t a global cooperation for real change. why can’t we bring together tens of millions of engaged citizens?
I believe that if just 1% of the world’s population quarterly or monthly funds the climate-related opportunities with tens of billions dollar, we could stay below the 1,5 degree threshold.
major climate and nature organizations have been around for decades, yet the climate is heating, and the biodiversity is declining.
why haven’t these organizations achieved their goals? why don’t people contribute more to enable them to make a real difference?
how.
being a deaf film director, my focus lies in engaging audiences, guided by the motto “show, don’t tell”.
I believe that when we show, it leads to understanding, understanding to caring, and caring to action. that requires our cooperation platform to show full transparency.
I also think harnessing collective wisdom is most effective through the decentralization of the cooperation.
for real change, we must engage a much broader public, and that can be achieved through entertainment.
since globally appealing leaders who can craft our compelling narratives are rare, we’ve created virtual leaders: Musa and Sofia.
in summary, our strategy relies on transparency, decentralization and entertainment.
what.
our initiative centers around a platform for selecting, voting on, and funding climate and social justice actions.
utilizing open-source technology, this platform operates like an iceberg – above the surface, leaders (contributors) fund projects based on consensus, while below, journalists and activists scrutinize the process.
through Musa & Sofia, we address global issues, combining creativity and knowledge to identify and transparently fund opportunities.
initially, a temporary team handles development, but later,
a decentralized model led by leaders takes over.
when.
first, €10,000 from 1,000 leaders to start the platform.
then, €50,000 from 2,000 leaders to fund opportunities, get more leaders involved, and improve the platform.
next, €250,000 from 2,500 leaders to fund even more opportunities, get more people to join, and change how we behave through media.
after that, $500,000 from 5,000 leaders for more opportunities, improving the platform, and growing our team.
finally, $1,000,000 from 10,000 leaders to keep creating chances.
funding plan for 2025:
january 2025: €2,000,000
february 2025: €4,000,000
march 2025: €8,000,000
and the plan continues for the rest of the year…
we’re flexible and experimental, ready to adapt to challenges, but our commitment to impactful international cooperation remains unwavering.
