Money Manifesto

We, the People, declare that

1. Money is a commons
Money is a public tool, an information system to measure, share and build individual and collective wealth.

2. Money is democratic
Governance of money is a democratic, consensual and transparent process.

3. Money is free
Access to and usage of the monetary system is an inalienable right provided at no cost.

4. Money is for developing wealth
The primary purpose of money is the fulfilment of fundamental needs and rights as described in the Human Rights Charter, in particular the rights to food, housing, health, education, work. Money must be symbiotic with ecological needs.

5. Money is for everyone
Any community, network of people or organizations has the right to create and choose its currencies and related tools that serve their needs and the ones of humankind.
