Xmas 2007: we first traveled
to Bangladesh to ask whether
youth could help transform
education and economics
around the worldwide goal of
ending poverty. In 2009 we
hosted a party with brac and
grameen directors. Our dreams
of learning from both Yunus and
Fazle Abed started to disappear
as ever more conflicts surrounded
yunus. We started to see tech wizards
gravitating round BRAC. To remember
the passing of The Economist's Norman
Macrae the Japan embassy asked Fazle Abed
to host 2 roundtables on the future of teach and
of Brac University. 2017: Alipay's first published
partnership with sir fazle abed. In 20 dec 2019
sir fazle abed died. This brings us to our number 1
search of 2020s - can ali and brac scholars help
youth be the first SDG generation?

In january yunus technology director asks for worldwide search of next stage of developing village hubs- as microcredit.tv pro-youth journalists know know: in the pre-digital era it took yunus directors 7 years to develop their centre format (massively repicated from 1983) in which one branch manager could network 60 by 60 hubs of village women (walked to by POP/bareffoot banker once a week) being responsible for their livelihoods and the sustainability of the 3600 families tey represented - in other words each grameen bank branch served life critical needs of about 20000 peopaulo freire type action learning network arouhd 16 decisions; and the (first no financial service didtributed by bank managers- carrott seeds)- so that every centre was twinned with a vegetable garden); and groups of 60 women organsiing their mnen to develo sanitation systems around pit latrinnes, and then aan aga khan award for the safest minimalist cyclone proof hut with an unique mortgage system (only the mother coould take pout tyhe lopa- so for the first time village women and their children were more legally secure than their husbands)_
because of this bottom-up hub structire yusnu was choseb by by soros, MIT and telenor to be worlds first partner in experimnnting with mobile phmne empowerment of village women back in 1996
but the biggest question of end poverty world at start of 2008 was - what ahs been learnt form fisrt 12 years of mobile women4empowement and what are most exciting timmping points are parallel experiments around mobile now freeing around world of ending poverty -and PovertyUni that may most openly study this
during 2008 Kenya became a world leader in answering this quesion - see stories of IHUB and ushahidi, and mpesa and safari, and how tis all started back in 1999 wit yujus friend ingrid munro inventing te world's nmber 1 model of banking for slums and happy families here youth are trusted to rebuiold communities
