abedMOOC.com started from a brainstorming dinner convened by Japan Ambassador to Dhaka who noticed my father's surveys of Asia Rising begun with Japan 1962 (endorsed by JF Kennedy) had not completely detailed Bangladesh Rural Advancement's  contributions to sustaining humanity and celebrating nation building through women empowerment . Dad's last public birthday party had celebrated launch of Muhammad Yunus Global Social Business Book February 2008 with 40 guests at Royal Automobile Club, St James, London. Father had also paid for sampling 2000 of Yunus books, 10000 dvds (youtube style interviews with all grameen directors during summer 2008 when the Nobel judges opened Yunus Museum in Mirpur, as well as part of launch of 2 Journals by Adam Smith Scholars in Glasgow that had emerged from Yunus making the 250th keynote speech on Adam Smith Moral Sentiments Dec 2008. But Fazle Abed whom my father never got the chance to meet had started 11 years before Yunus Grameen Bank 1983 Ordinance , built health and agricultural foundations, and then schooling -altogether a 5 dimensions approach that was not possible to appreciate from onee dimensional microcreditsummit yunus the clintons, queen Sofia staged annually from 1997. Abed said we could do a Mooc if it was laid out round C for collaborations. He was keen to map how 6  Collabs per the 5 primary sdgs had been integrated through 2 quarters of a century 1972-1995 when rural meant no electricity grids or phones; 1995 when partnering platforms afforded extraordinary leapfrog models that could be designed with mobile networks and solar. It took 16 trips while Abed was alive (and the curiosity og many graduate journalists _ to get this mooc started, and we still try to update it even as Abed left the world in Dec 2019. We welcome corrections and omissions. We have attempted here to map the deepest economic miracle

1.6 brac 2nd (ie intl hq) in the hague is well placed with netherlands and GCA.org being arguably Europe's metahub of microgreen solutions; microgreen is also an area leading royals including UK Charles with BBC and Japan (Emperors Oxford postgrad thesis on water) and Dutch Royal family map by 1980 when urgent food franchises rice and veggies were prime time in any metavillage brac linkedin, the abed family had also prioritised ways villagers could earn money from citizens- arts, cash crops and eg social forestry (it would be interesting to know if any alumni poverty alleviation forestry network proceeded that; dont overlook eg good news from #digitalglobal2022 where the UN presented how much Mongolia gov  is leaping ahead with green solutions presented by its herdspeople and th 300 mn dollar world bank and bangladesh partnerships were among leading references   (also note as abed alumni have spent 50 years leading value chain design of about 20 agricultural sectors in bangladesh these have been chosen to maximise villager inclusion and sustainability; indeed from the getgo resilience at local levels was engineered into abed's mapmaking - it had been a killer cyclone that had first changed his life from regional ceo for oil company royal dutch shell

changing aid to humanity's 3 most exciting cooperations

 Bagladesh was born after  inheriting the double shortest straw of colonisation : Colonised by the british, then partitioning took away access to the region's superport calcutta and made Bengali's a colony of (West Pakistan); by independence in 1971, 90% of the peoples were in villages without electricity; the government barely had resource base to organsiae the 10% of citizens

Fazle Abed had just becose Asia's leading young oil company ma- royal dutch shell's CEO for his homeland- when a cyclone in 1970 killed a million people around him - several months working on disaster relief changed his life; he finished his contract with shell; sold his putney flat; with about 15000 pounds started up Bangladesh Rural Advanacent Cooperation

The cooperation platforms he designed through 25 years serving women villagers without electricity changed aid; wherever possible Abed sought to design business microfranchise business for village mothers not accept (endless) charity; wherein BRAC did grants it designed something world class that others came to benchmark

There was an accident that business schools have never properly taught. Because Abed spent all his funds inititally rebuilding 15000 homes that had been flattened by the war of independence - he was always designing micorfranchises needed to serve meat-villages of 100000 people. This meant that when BRA-C researched eg the most effective lo]cal rice science- it was a significant R&D partner among all Borlaug's green revolution alumni. Bty the 1970s The Economist was publishing that rice was so adaptable that 1000% more pee local community was growable between best and worst adapatation. When the village health's service was iintially built round women doordashing 10 basic medicines (vilage nothers carried thise on foot- each had a weekly map of 300 homes to serve). BRAC became a national wholesaler of basic medicines at the lowest price but good quality. 

Markets that abed designed womens business in were this designed with  accompaniedvalue chains that always integrated their efforts. Historically culture had not expected women to be productive. When a nation wastes half its potential workforce, that's neither social nor economic. Ironically tropical contimenta china was going tyhrough its own version of needing women to bne a sproductive as men. Duie to the one child law half ogf familie's prof=gress depended on the enetrpreneurship oif 20 simeything women. Open souring of solutions that ended vilage poverty was just plain human 1970-1999 - and notably UNICEF leader , an immunologist called James Grant, celebrated such a twinning of female empowered nation building (never leaving out the poorest or most isolated)

25 years after starting brac some partners brought fiurst solar and mobile opportunities. At teh same time silicon valley millennium goal cheerleaders asked Abed to go international. His reposnse was to design a second meta-collaboration platform - a university which he intended to design solutions uniting sustainability graduates the world over.

Its from that perspective we have aimed to curate the 30 most extraordinary cooperations in human development economics. Of course Abed hoped taht his friends and alumni would leap forward with them through what at his death in 2019 was the end of the web 2 era and the last decade of sdgs being possible which millennials see as web3 or year round competitions such as www.sdgmetaverseprize.org . How would abed's 30 cooperations that empowered billion poorest Asian women continue to celebrate heroic entrepreneurial revolution. Abed was very clear - what he had designed was over 100000 global village trainers - educators can change community building bottom up and openly in line with natute. This is not what west top businenss schools teach as financial administration. What it does do is celebrate way above zero-sum networks such as how life critical knowhow multiplies value in application unlike consuming up things. Until we know whether millennials are the first sustainability of the first extinction generation - we hope you will find spending time in Abed and 1 billion womens cooperation platforms joyful as well as productive.


Of course any errors are my reporting chris.macrae@yahoo.co.uk ; any imprivements are welcomed; when we first started traveling to bangladesh in 2007 we started playing an annual game with students - if they could choose a pack of 52 worldrecordjobs.com - who'd the other 51 most relevant to abed and billion womens empowerment be.With the 15th annual edition for 2022-2023 we welcome the world's first year round sdg youth competition - www.sdgmetaverseprize.org 



Glasgow Adam Smith scholars who had helped launch out interest with the 250 adam smith moral sentiments lecture have built 2 journals - social busnenss and new economics and have announced that june 2023will celebrate 265th adam smith anniversary with the launch of microeducatiosummit. Abed was always saying value education and cooperation. It took me much longer thatn it should to realsie how closely abed's values aligned with von neumann who my father met in 1951 and was given economics journalists most valuable scoop - what goods will people do with 100 times more tech every decade 1930s through 2020s.



 Lik Abed neumann and dad had seen a lot of bad before they could mediate good. In fact most of the lives of the greatest mathematican netwrk ever was spent on the nuclear bomb race; my dad emmpathised , he spent his last fays as a teenage navigaor allied bomber command , burma campaign. Imagine if the brightest or most energetic young brains got an opportunity to focus on something other than the fisrt half of 20th century' wars. 



Of course there are those who may read did from early 2022 who may say Europe in incapable of ending wars. Well, we have one last leap of 100 times more tech to meta- and mathematically if most peoples nations are not graviated the sustaiability way round each goal, its hard to see 8 billion pesosns will get another better chacce. Its certain what women empowered economics aims to map.
