PhiEconomy: UN SDGs tokenization for a global thriving society
- Argentina
- Not registered as any organization
We're addressing the multifaceted challenge of economic prosperity, job security, sustainable business practices, and achieving UN SDGs. The scale is immense: currently, 2 billion people globally are in informal or precarious jobs, lacking social protection (58% of global workers), with an additional 211 million unemployed (ILO data). Furthermore, IMF reports suggest that 40% of global jobs are at high risk of disruption due to Artificial Intelligence, with emerging economies facing increased vulnerability.
In Latin America, unemployment sits at 6.3% in 2023, with 48.8% in informal or precarious jobs among a working population of 319 million (ILO, CEPAL, World Bank). Rising inflation further threatens job stability and creation, reaching levels unseen in decades.
Key factors exacerbating these challenges include:
Economic Vulnerability: Economies reliant on production and consumption are highly susceptible to shocks like COVID-19. Shifting to an economy focused on people and the planet, emphasizing sustainable development, can build resilience.
Limited Job Creation: Relying solely on market-based job creation puts undue pressure on businesses and leaves workers vulnerable to shocks, automation, and AI. We need new forms of employment beyond traditional market roles.
Misaligned Objectives: Jobs often fail to align with people's life objectives, leading to disengagement and limited participation. Our solution bridges this gap, connecting work with personal purpose.
Profit vs. Sustainability: Companies prioritizing profit over sustainability risk escalating conflicts and economic shocks. Aligning business objectives with sustainable development fosters economic prosperity and societal well-being.
PhiEconomy offers a transformative solution by tokenizing meaningful activities that contribute to personal and planetary well-being. By creating a global pool of choices for income generation based on sustainable actions, we provide economic security, job fulfillment, and progress towards UN SDGs.

PhiEconomy represents a paradigm shift in economic theory and practice, offering a new framework to create value and drive global prosperity centered on people, the planet, and the achievement of UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). It integrates cutting-edge technologies such as Blockchain, Artificial Intelligence, and Crypto-Tokens to empower individuals, entrepreneurs, and organizations to contribute meaningfully to a sustainable future.
At its core, PhiEconomy is a theory of value that redefines how we measure and distribute economic value. Here's how it works:
Tokenization of UN SDGs: We tokenize the UN SDGs, transforming them into tangible assets that can be traded and incentivizing actions that contribute to their achievement. This opens up new opportunities for entrepreneurs and organizations to align their objectives with the SDGs and create value for society.
Global Movement: We've established a Global Movement to disseminate PhiEconomy's principles and technologies. Through our website and guided assistance, we empower individuals and organizations to tokenize SDGs and drive positive change.
Engagement and Education: We engage with partner organizations, universities, governments, and media to spread awareness and understanding of PhiEconomy. Our global events, university programs, and fieldwork with entrepreneurs and companies facilitate knowledge transfer and inspire action.
Key Pillars: PhiEconomy is built on several pillars:
- Blockchain and Crypto-Token Technology: Utilizing these technologies to tokenize SDGs and create a decentralized economy.
- Tokenomics for the Common Good: We've developed the PhiEconomy Regenerative CryptoEconomics CANVAS, enabling entrepreneurs and citizens to design solutions that align with SDGs.
- Value-Based Token Issuance: Tokens are issued based on the human and planetary value created, providing a market value certificate to beneficiaries.
- Strategic Alliances: Collaborations with companies, governments, universities, NGOs, and global community movements to drive adoption and demand for tokens.
- Knowledge Transfer: Through online resources, masterclasses, workshops, and partnerships, we empower changemakers with the knowledge to drive sustainable economic growth.
PhiEconomy addresses the economic opportunity highlighted by the United Nations, estimated at $12 trillion. By leveraging our framework, this value can be distributed globally, particularly benefiting individuals displaced by AI and automation. Our solution transforms economic value distribution, placing it in the hands of citizens and fostering a more equitable and sustainable future.
Our solution serves the global working-age population (15-64 years), comprising 65.4% of the total global population, equating to 3.5 billion employed citizens in 2023 (OECD & Statista links provided). According to the Gallup State of the Global Workplace 2023 report, 50% of global workers seek alternative employment, with only 23% engaged in their daily tasks. High levels of stress persist, exacerbated by a lack of purpose in their work and impending challenges from AI adoption. Retirement and pension inadequacies compound these issues, as highlighted by reports from the WEF and IMF.
PhiEconomy addresses this with a groundbreaking approach, merging work and vocation to align citizens' life purposes with income generation. By tokenizing previously undervalued activities, we assign economic value to actions like exercise, education, recycling, and contributing to global causes. Retirement becomes obsolete as citizens engage in lifelong activities they're passionate about, contributing to a better world and earning daily income. Our platform offers a wide array of choices, all geared toward personal growth and planet improvement, driven by Blockchain technology and aimed at achieving UN SDGs.
To ensure fairness, we've developed the MEI (Minimum Expected Income) algorithm, which monitors token supply-demand friction to set a minimum income threshold based on the value each citizen contributes to the system. In essence, PhiEconomy provides a pathway to meaningful work, income, and global impact.
Our Global Movement operates across 13 countries, spanning over 35 cities, with Ambassadors and Ambassadresses stationed in each city. We adopt a glocal approach, blending local insights with global perspectives to develop impactful solutions. Our team embodies diverse expertise from various fields including technology, sustainability, business, philosophy, psychology, economics, and politics, ensuring a holistic understanding of the challenges we address.
Proximity to the communities we serve is paramount. Our team is deeply embedded within these communities, with Ambassadors and Ambassadresses living and working among them. This proximity allows us to understand the unique needs, aspirations, and challenges of each community firsthand. We engage in continuous dialogue with community members, listening to their input, ideas, and agendas to shape our solutions accordingly.
Our Team Lead and members are representative of the communities we serve, reflecting their diversity and richness. We are not defined solely by academic or professional credentials but by our shared experiences and commitment to driving positive change. Our team is inclusive and collaborative, fostering an environment where everyone's voice is heard and valued.
The design and implementation of our solution are guided by community input at every step. We conduct regular workshops, focus groups, and consultations to gather feedback and co-create solutions together with community members. Our approach is rooted in knowledge-sharing and open-source principles, leveraging collective wisdom and technology to advance initiatives rapidly.
Ultimately, our team's strength lies in our deep connection to the communities we serve, our diverse expertise, and our commitment to collaborative innovation. By working hand in hand with community members, we ensure that our solutions are relevant, impactful, and sustainable, driving positive change where it's needed most.

We mostly face legal -at the Governments levels- and cultural -new notions for what we consider jobs and money- we expect MIT Solve -via our engagement in this challenge- will help us to overcome. How? Via the global exposure this program have with partners like United Nations, World Bank, IMF, National Governments, Global Companies and Global NGOs.
- Financial (e.g. accounting practices, pitching to investors)
- Product / Service Distribution (e.g. delivery, logistics, expanding client base)
- Public Relations (e.g. branding/marketing strategy, social and global media)
Our solution, PhiEconomy, introduces innovative concepts and protocols to address global challenges in a new and transformative way:
U.N. SDGs Tokenization: We have reimagined the creation process of Bitcoin and applied it to any global human challenge, particularly the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Just as Bitcoin revolutionized the financial world, our Regenerative CryptoEconomics framework tokenizes SDGs to accelerate their achievement. This approach enables exponential progress, similar to the widespread adoption of Bitcoin. By leveraging blockchain technology, we create a decentralized economy focused on solving humanity's greatest challenges.
PHI Protocol: Inspired by the natural PHI proportion, which balances bodies and processes in our reality, our PHI Protocol aims to balance wealth and inequality within any system. Using algorithmic principles, the protocol autonomously adjusts various cryptoeconomic variables to maintain this balance. Central to this is the concept of Minimum Expected Income (MEI), akin to Universal Basic Income (UBI), which ensures the well-being of all participants involved in value creation. The MEI represents each participant's expected share of value within the system, ensuring fairness and sustainability over time.
These innovations have the potential to catalyze broader positive impacts and change the market landscape in several ways:
Spreading Adoption: By tokenizing SDGs, we provide a new incentive structure for individuals, organizations, and governments to actively contribute to their achievement. This could lead to widespread adoption of our framework, catalyzing a global movement toward sustainable development.
Reducing Inequality: The PHI Protocol's focus on wealth balance and the MEI could lead to a significant reduction in global inequality. By ensuring that all participants receive a fair share of the value created, we empower marginalized communities and promote economic inclusivity.
Transforming Economics: Our approach challenges traditional economic models by integrating blockchain technology and principles of fairness and sustainability. As more organizations adopt our framework, we could see a shift toward more equitable and sustainable economic systems worldwide.
Overall, PhiEconomy's innovative approach has the potential to drive profound positive change, not only in addressing specific challenges like the SDGs but also in transforming the way we approach economics, wealth distribution, and societal well-being.
PhiEconomy aims to address several interconnected problems by tokenizing the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and providing a new source of income to citizens worldwide while connecting them with their life goals.
Problem 1: Potential decrease in Job's Market creation due to AI and Automation
Immediate Outputs:
- Tokenization of SDGs: We tokenize SDGs, creating new opportunities for income generation beyond traditional job roles.
- Engagement with Communities: We engage with communities to identify potential activities aligned with SDGs that can be tokenized.
Longer-term Outcomes:
- New Income Sources: Citizens access new sources of income through activities that contribute to SDGs, even as traditional jobs are disrupted by AI and automation.
- Increased Job Satisfaction: Citizens find meaning and purpose in their work, as they align with their life goals and contribute to global sustainability.
- Reduced Economic Disparity: By creating new income sources, PhiEconomy reduces economic disparity caused by job displacement, ensuring financial security for all citizens.
Problem 2: Disconnect between Jobs and Life Purposes, Retirement Insecurity
Immediate Outputs:
- Token Rewards for Activities: Citizens receive token rewards for engaging in activities aligned with their life purposes and SDGs, without the need of retirement -full life cycle-.
- Education and Awareness: We educate citizens on the importance of aligning work with life goals and provide tools to help them do so.
Longer-term Outcomes:
- Increased Well-being: Citizens experience greater fulfillment and satisfaction as they pursue activities that resonate with their life purposes and connect with society goals -feel part of the solution and not the problem-.
- Retirement Security: With continuous income from token rewards, citizens are less reliant on traditional retirement plans, ensuring financial security in later years.
- Shift in Society Culture: Companies recognize the value of citizens producing contributing to U.N. SDGs -those are customers & potential customers of their products- and engage with tokens as a mean of payment for their products -value's alignment-.
Problem 3: Unsustainable Production and Consumption Patterns
Immediate Outputs:
- Tokenization of Sustainable Actions: We tokenize sustainable actions such as recycling, renewable energy production, and ethical consumption.
- Partnerships with Companies: We partner with companies to tokenize their sustainable initiatives and promote responsible production and consumption.
Longer-term Outcomes:
- Behavioral Change: Citizens and companies shift towards more sustainable production and consumption patterns as they are incentivized through token rewards -positive economy, not a penalizing one-.
- Achievement of SDGs: By incentivizing sustainable actions, PhiEconomy contributes to the achievement of SDGs by 2030.
- Environmental Preservation: Reduced resource consumption and pollution lead to a healthier environment and improved quality of life for all.
Evidence from research included before on this application indicates the growing impact of AI and automation on traditional job markets, as well as studies highlighting the importance of aligning work with life purposes for overall well-being. Additionally, interviews with our target population have shown strong interest in alternative income sources and a desire to contribute to global sustainability efforts.
Our impact goals are:
Alliances: Establishing partnerships with organizations (Universities, Governments, NGOs, Companies) to amplify our message, contents, and tools.
Education: Reaching different stakeholders to engage in existing Regenerative CryptoEconomic initiatives or launch new ones to achieve UN SDGs.
Initiatives: Influencing the formation of new initiatives toward UN SDGs.
We measure each goal as follows:
- # of Alliances Formed: Tracking the number of partnerships established with organizations across various sectors.
- # of Citizens Reached: Monitoring the reach of our messaging and contents through various channels such as social media, events, and publications.
- # of Entrepreneurs and Decision Makers Educated: Counting the number of individuals educated with our contents and tools through workshops, webinars, and educational materials.
- # of New Initiatives Launched: Tracking the number of new initiatives launched by individuals or organizations inspired by our work.
- # of Ambassadors and Ambassadresses: Monitoring the growth of our Global Movement through the number of Ambassadors and Ambassadresses in different cities worldwide.
These indicators help us gauge the effectiveness of our efforts in spreading awareness, fostering collaboration, and driving action toward our impact goals. By tracking these metrics, we ensure that we are making tangible progress towards our mission of creating a more sustainable and equitable world.
PhiEconomy's core technology is grounded in Blockchain, an innovative and decentralized technology that underpins our Regenerative CryptoEconomics framework. Here's how it works:
Blockchain Technology: Blockchain serves as the foundation of our solution, providing a secure and transparent platform for tokenization and transaction tracking. By leveraging blockchain, we ensure the integrity and immutability of data related to tokenized assets and transactions, fostering trust and accountability within the global ecosystem.
Tokenization of UN SDGs: We use blockchain technology to tokenize the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), transforming them into digital assets that can be traded and incentivize citizens and company change's behaviour. This allows individuals, organizations, and governments to contribute to SDG achievement by engaging in tokenized activities and initiatives; and the possibility to reach mass global audiences in a short span of time.
Open-Source Concept: We promote open-source principles in our framework, allowing technology and knowledge to be freely accessible and modifiable by anyone. This fosters collaboration and innovation, enabling a global community of developers, entrepreneurs, and stakeholders to contribute to every solution and adapt it to their specific needs and contexts.
Collaborative Economy: Our solution promotes a collaborative economy, where individuals and organizations collaborate to achieve common goals and create shared value. Blockchain technology facilitates peer-to-peer transactions and interactions, eliminating the need for intermediaries and promoting direct collaboration between citizens and companies.
Phi Algorithm: We utilize the Phi Algorithm to balance inequality and poverty within the UN SDGs token ecosystem created -or within each individual tokenization process-. Inspired by the natural PHI proportion, this algorithm autonomously adjusts various cryptoeconomic variables to ensure fair distribution of wealth and resources. By incorporating the Phi Algorithm, we aim to create a more equitable and inclusive economic system.
Sustainable Processes: Our solution integrates sustainable practices and processes, aligning with the principles of environmental stewardship and resource conservation. Through tokenization of sustainable actions such as recycling, renewable energy production, and ethical consumption, we incentivize behavior that promotes planetary well-being.
Meaningful Life Purposes Jobs: PhiEconomy framework creates opportunities for meaningful, purpose-driven jobs aligned with individuals' life goals and the achievement of SDGs. By tokenizing activities that contribute to societal and environmental well-being -life's intangibles-, we enable individuals to pursue careers that provide both financial stability and personal fulfillment.
In summary, PhiEconomy leverages blockchain technology, open-source principles, collaborative economy, sustainable processes, the Phi Algorithm, and meaningful life purposes jobs to address global challenges and achieve UN SDGs. By harnessing the power of modern technology like the Blockchain applied towards solving our great grand challenges we face as humanity -technology development under a human's and planetary's perspective-, we aim to benefit both people and the planet, driving innovation and positive change for a sustainable future.

We are a global movement, which comprises of ambassadors and ambassadresses (54, fifty four) who operate in the local communities (covering 35 different cities, across 13 countries). As such, those are not staff as understood on this challenge.
We've been developing PhiEconomy for over three years (2012-2015). Since
its launch in 2015, we've refined the framework with field feedback and
launched projects/initiatives that enhance it. In 2019, our Global Phieconomy Movement was initiated by me and other beneficiaries -citizens and entrepreneurs being touched by lectures, workshops, talks, keynotes, books and presentations- with a vision and objectives to accelerate the adoption of this framework at global mass-scale. Through partnerships with Universities, Governments, NGOs, and Companies, we've expanded adoption, breaking cultural barriers and fostering faster creation of initiatives focused on UN SDGs tokenization to drive change.
We do not have paid jobs. We incorporate freely -through a selection process managed by the vote of all our Community members- new ambassadors and ambassadresses in our Movement. The main requisite is to drive change and adoption towards PhiEconomy's principles on their local areas -cities-. This is based on field and ground work and does not need to have specific nor exclusive technologies. We focus on the impact done on sustainability and inclusion and we help to analyze if a new blockchain-enabled process -plus its tokenization- might help to grow and expand the impact of the new member's activity or initiative.

Our plan for financial sustainability revolves around a combination of revenue streams and partnerships:
Token Contribution: We generate income through the contributions from PhiEconomy's led initiatives and the tokens those generate. These tokens represent assets tied to specific sustainable development projects and activities. This will help support our minimum set of operations and ongoing development as stated in the business plan.
Consulting Services: We offer consulting services to organizations interested in tokenizing their sustainable initiatives or implementing our Regenerative CryptoEconomics framework. These services include tokenization strategy development, implementation support, and ongoing guidance. Consulting fees serve as another income stream for PhiEconomy.
Partnerships and Collaborations: We form partnerships with Universities, Governments, NGOs, and Companies to provide Phieconomy knowledge in their education programs or initiatives.
Evidence of Success:
- Consulting Engagements: We have worked already with Universities and Governments, receiving income from the education programs we have been involved with them to support the expansion of PhiEconomy Regenerative CryptoEconomics Framework.
Our long-term goal is to achieve financial sustainability by ensuring that our income streams cover our expected expenses. So far, our approach via not having the need of staff plus our consulting engagements and partnerships, it has been effective in generating income and funding our work. We will continue to diversify our income streams, expand our partnerships, and deliver new options for education services to ensure our financial sustainability and long-term impact.
