Introduction by Dr. Sandro Sassoli, author and General Project Coordinator
“The world in a coin. I don’t know whether I will get to see this dream come true in the near future. A good number of years will pass before we “invent” and build this dream, starting with this first symbolic step. What I do know is that this dream will happen sometime in the future, because it is an inevitable and, indeed, quite obvious fact.
I would like to dedicate this project to my children, Alessia, Leonardo, and Kamira-Mikhaela, and to Michael George, who will one day be able to hold this new currency in their very hands. I also dedicate this project to all those who see beyond the barriers of today, and those who firmly believe in a brighter future. For everyone.”
Sandro Sassoli, Spring 2009
“A future currency that unites all continents? A dream, a utopia, a reality? It is up to us to decide.”
Arthur Schlessinger Jr. has been, with Dr. Sassoli, the "father promoter" of the UFWC concept for a world currency. His deep, wise and skilled support helped enormously the starting of the project. UFWC team remembers him with gratitude

“It is interesting that young students from different countries can get involved in an international project that helps them understand certain aspects of international economic policy, allowing them to prepare for the future monetary union that we hope for. I should like to congratulate you, Dr. Sassoli, along with all participants in this project, and send you my warmest regards.
