Launch a Sustainable Information Age Economic Model

Our collective Project is called Peace Portal, we are currently in Phase One, identifying solutions.

Our action this year is to launch Phase Two, the charity fund raising portion of Peace Portal, called Free Digital Universe.

Free Digital Universe (FDU) non-violent Virtual Fair serving as an equal human rights forum, social community, charitable fund raiser, and personal wealth tool for thriving in the Information Age.  Each user is provided an account called a Digital Soule, using their "Avatar" the Soule is rewarded for co-creating the Free Digital Universe.

The holistic design produces an Information Age commerce system allowing greater wealth and freedom for everyone, while also responding to ever-growing pressures on our natural environment.

Prosperity Program, a cooperative plan of Peace Portal, Free Digital Universe, and Worldwide Developers Foundation designed as a virtual fair and charity fund raiser is one plan to accomplish this goal.

"If the Internet is going to become the engine of global commerce it's cracked up to be, it needs a currency it can call its own - a currency as non proprietary and international as the Internet itself." ~ Wired

Once a Information Age economic system is in place, the rest of the infrastructure can be addressed by leveraging those tools. Compliments to a digital economy include local sustainable development of trees, clean water solutions, health care, food security, education, and social justice systems.  This is accomplished locally through installation of Access Points.

Access Point Project connects partners on the ground (such as One Laptop per Child, Inveneo or Room to Read) with the FDU Games private global commerce platform for empowering the poor to improve their lives by accessing Information Age opportunities such as equal compensation for their labor using Life Force Points as a unencumbered virtual currency.

We utilize the increasing availability of Information Age technologies with Internet based market opportunities designed specifically to meet the needs of people who are economically dis-enfranchised and whom are regularly excluded from mainstream consideration.

Providing Internet Access is achieved by supporting installation of clean energy (solar, wind, water) powered ICT Systems , donated computers, and additional technology by integrating our efforts with those established charities already providing Access, such as: ECHO, Doctors Without Borders, and efforts of missionaries.

“Information technology will create equivalent opportunities for competitive choice in domiciling economic activities, but with important differences. One is that unlike the medieval frontier societies, cyberspace is likely to be in due course the richest of economic realms. It will therefore tend to be a growing rather than a receding frontier.”

With the tools of the Information Age we can achieve our goals. With the help of the independent peer partners whom have chosen to implement the Free Digital Universe concept, perhaps we can relieve pressure on individuals, communities, and governments.

“If you don’t like the way to the world is, you change it. You have an obligation to change it. You just do it one step at a time. ~ Marian Wright Edelman
