20th century intelligence - ending poverty of half world without electricity -although Keynes 1936 (last capter general theiry money inetrest emplymen) asked Economists to take hipocrati oath as the profession that ended extreme poverty, most economists did the opposite. Whats not understandable is how educatirs failed to catalogue the lessons of the handful who bottom-up empowered vilages to collaboratively end poverty. There are mainly 2 inteligences to understand- Borlaug on food; fazle abed on everything that raised life expectancy in tropical viage asia from low 40s to 60s (about 7 below norm of living with electricity and telecomes). Between 1972 and 2001, Abed's lessons catalogued in this mooc had largelu built the nation of Bangladesh and been replicated with help of Unicef's James Grant acroo most tropical asian areas. What's exciting is the valley's mr ad mrs steve jobs invted Fazle Abed to share inteligences 2001 at his 65th birthday party. The Jobs and frineds promised to integrate abed's inteligence into neighborhod university stanfrd which in any event wanted Jobs next great leap the iphone. The Valley told abed to start a university so that women graduates from poor and rich nations could blend inteligence as Abed's bottom of the pyramid vilage began their journey of leapfrog modles now that gridd infarstructures were ni longer needed for sdiar and mobile. Abed could also help redesign the millennium goals which were being greenwashed into a shared worldwide system coding frame by 2016. There re at Abed's 80th birtday party , the easy bitwas checking this mooc was uptodate. The hard bit - what did Abed mean by his wish to headhunt a taiwanese american to head the university's 3rd decade starting 2020?

millennials come of age as sdg COLLAB generation - please send in nominations for best news of education year of 2021

posted dec 8 2021
world best education summits week - yidan hk -wise qatar - rewired2021.com(next week)
 
we at next door communities of us north east of wash dc with  abedplay.com  thought we'd start ball rolling with  students celebrations of 2021 with breaking news from yesterday--after qatar foundation sheikha moza and her womens university's 10 years of appointing global education laureates that began with my number 1 hero http://www.fazleabed.com 

yesterday's global education laureates at wise saw the nomination of the bronx's own wendy kopp
 but wow do I wish those of whose tried first to engage students from bronx university with thousands of muhammad yunus social business books  in 2008 in sdg collaborations had known the bronx with princeton is where wendy started suggesting to graduates if you want to community build bu teaching dont do an MA in education -but join our real network for 2 years then go teach

so I realise spencer has been connecting 21st C africa diaspora out of ny  or basir has been teaching at diversity's main justice school in ny for far longer than our bronx experiments and that he runs a local brooklyn radio in a region we devoted at least 50 days trying to support really edgy medgar evers graduate do their own community deep solutions

 and that bard returns citizens and others who may have missed 12th grade and then helps them with college scholarships  (and with christopher reaches out to latin american exchanges)
using an apprentice program partnered with brooklyns largest library but I will see if wendy kopp is willing to send a team member to NY's 50 plus second annual review of what billion women community builders networked around fazle abed and if meanwhile you have some other best news either anchored to new york development or anywhere please say or indeed add in colleagues

cheers chris macrae wash dc +1 240 316 8157
