My name is Nicolas Franka.
I have worked on "money" all my adult life. I found it to be a central institution that shapes value, power, and collective action. It is as complex as it is misunderstood, yet it a central piece of any power system. Well worth a life of passion you will discover on this website.
My work starts from a simple observation: the monetary system is inefficient at allowing ressources for collective purposes. While societies debate democracy and justice intensely, the monetary and economic systems remain largely unquestioned. I analyse the limits of the dominant monetary system and work on concrete alternatives. Indeed, I love combining research, field experimentation, and public debate to bring sustained public attention to a question that has shaped my work for years. .
My goal is clear: to help restore the capacity to act to territories, communities, and citizens, in order to build a fairer, more democratic, and more resilient economy that delivers sustained prosperity for all.
