Since start of machine age the Adam Smith school of economists have valued how health (Economist 1984 and 1843) and education (Economist 1986) exponentially sustain places' economic growth across generations not vice versa ..over the last 50 years Safety*Health*Education has been 1billiongirls development password across Asia -fortunately AN ECONOMIC MIRACLE BEGAN WHEN Chinese and Bangladesh village networkers linked in around fazle abed since 1972 to demonstrate how lives matter women empowerment changes how governments and corporations behave- charities without eithe a business case or a direct smart intel transfer case integrating transparent community data ending poverty traps- global viallage purposes of value chains celebrate the ultimate sme networing model of transparency mapping at 4 levels : 1 village solution, 100000 village solution replication, national market leadership, worldwide sustainability benchmark of market sector purpose

mathematically the UN's 17 sustainability goals pose a problem unless you can help people factor them into a memorisable number of ways forward- if thee is only one factor goal one both gravitates all ohers but requires bottom-up mapping -as einstein would say innovators need to integrate the most micro of dynamics if there system is not to be blind to what top people cannot see; 20 years into 2025 report's journey several exponential challenges had missed the simplest way to unite humans:
there was no transparent audit of trust-flow applied to world's biggest organisations

It wasn' until the end of world war 2 that the dolar was reconised as the worlds reerve currency. The united nations ws convened and 7 of the biggest G8 empires seemed to agree a new map which recognised that a root cause of the world wars that orgnising world trade just to the benefit of peoples in 8 place resprent aboyt a quarter of the world's population was snot sustainable. The plan: the USA would help the G7 economies reboot but once this was growing support for fomrer colonises independence would be maximised. Three opportunities emerged from 1950s innovations: satellite and space, digital computing, much more reliable proceses of engineering and linking in supply chain networks.In additior crop science geared to local diversity emerged. All of these appeared to offer win-win opportunities across nations but 3 problems seem to have overtaken the rate at which the UN could adapt. kennedy was assisinated-the U lost continuity both internationally and at home as the publics confindence wass rockedby other assinations, and vietnam -the first time americans had entered an unwinnable war? Increased Russian mischief all over the newly indepetend nations world including latin america , and a geonomic trick nature had played on te old world. A place which the ebnglish had named the middle east is actually a land bridge between 3 suncintents: Afrca m Euripe and Asa. But this landbridge is mainly desert and oil welss.

To the extemy that global trade existed and needed to be accounted for by currency. the pound played this role until the start of world war 1 at which time it abandoned the promise of exchangeability with gold.Access to engineering changed the size of economies from being mainly correlated with where populations had settled- eg 2 out of 3 on the asian continent. The fact that small island of britain (less than 1% of people, much less than that as per cent of land andnaural resources) couldat its peak recah nearly 10% of woirkd trade reflects how its mercantile power ahd won out comaped with other Europeans in 18th C and its first mover adavantages with engines. In particular the 19th C was to see The Uk wmpire take over adminstration of most of the nations around the INsian ocean. Americans who were fast to insutrialise after decalaring independence in 1776, focused on saling engineering on their own continent. It wasn't until world war 1 that this nation became recongined as tahgest world power 		Could it be that there are 2 types of world trade
zero sum ones that need regulating so that a country get overdependent on anothers products
social world trades go way above zero sum- eg where knowledge is multiplied in use by eg mentoring-
notably consider microfranchises which we define as offer open sourcing of a social solution designed to give a community capacity to serve an important need where the value of the service stays with the producers--could it be that this second type of world trade needs open society celebration not inter-country regulation? in a knowledge economy might social world trade be 10 times bigger than zero-sum particularly in markets where knowhow critically impacting millennials' sustainability goals.

mit dlabs and hubs

Something to feel great about: MIT D-Lab students and our community partners around the world. Read on for student blog posts about their work with community partners to further joint projects begun in fall D-Lab classes, teach workshops, and co-design and co-build solutions addressing local needs!
San Antonio, Colombia - Meshing worlds, making fences together

Trip leaders from longstanding community partner C-Innova were waiting when the D-Lab: Development "Team Colombia" arrived in Bogotá. Together, they traveled to the community of San Antonio where they ran a workshop on building solar cellphone chargers and, with the community, tackled motorizing an important piece of fencing equipment affectionately dubbed "la maquina."  Read student blog post.

Karurumo, Kenya - Design and user research of room-sized coolers

An MIT D-Lab Evaporative Cooling research team let by D-Lab's Eric Verploegen spent much of January in Kenya at the University of Nairobi and in Karurumo (three hours northeast of Nairobi). Pictured above is a D-Lab student gathering data from Sensen sensors on a brick evaporative cooling chamber or ECC. Stay tuned for blog post and in the meantime, visit the Kenya Evaporative Cooling project page!

20 dec death of greatest end poverty movement connector sir fazle abed

we were late in understanding who www.fazleabed.com linked in on journey to empower between quarter a billion (npr) and 1 billion poorest womens lives

15 visits to dhaka  later our notes show
start at university his legacy merging with 32 billion dollars of invetsment by george soros
george discovered sir fazle via jim kim having first funded yunus vilage phones

its little wonder the greatest tribute any billionaire could make is to announce scholarship coalition between brac university, soros central european university moved to vienna from nov 2019 and bard college plus 20 with newcomers joining monthly - if there is one global university to end poverty check out lessons and movements associated with OSUN before you hub anywhere else
