The international aid sector is a $200 billion industry that has structurally failed. When the cameras and grant cycles leave, communities are left in a state of dependency. But what if we stopped treating marginalized people as victims and started treating them as creators?Welcome back to The World's Mayor Experience! In this episode, host Joshua T. Berglan breaks down a radical new business plan: "The Sovereign Franchise." This isn't a charity; it's a global sovereign media network designed to replace NGO dependency with permanent economic sovereignty through the Creator Economy and Web3 technology.Discover how we are building off-grid media hubs in maximum-difficulty environments like Bafut, Cameroon, and Nakivale, Uganda—giving creators 80-90% of their revenue enforced by smart contracts.We aren't competing with the NGO model. We are replacing it.🔗 Get Involved & Read the Business Plan: Visit: https://www.joshuatberglan.com/the-sovereign-franchise Book a Sovereign Architecture ConsultationFund a Hub directlySupport Joshua on the ground via GoFundMeTimestamps: 0:00 - The $200 Billion Failure of International Aid 1:30 - What is The Sovereign Franchise?
