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?

Soon eed & tech had contributed 4 jigsaw pieces to transforming gov to celebrate youth as first sustainabiity generation

ed 1 digital cooperation

ed 2 digital capacity building

tech 1 global connectivity- switzerland's respomsibility since 1865's formation of ITU

tech 2 - this has been called ai for good but can be interested as maximing best of human and tech intel - the latter has compounded thanks to goats of maths v neumann, einstein peers since 1930. Neumann meeting my father 1951 said most valable question in world: what good will peoples do with 100 times more tech per decade

along with these 4 innovation pieces guterres has integrated the 4 aims un founded round 1945 : transparency public goods, trust/safety, rights at & beyond borders, inclusion


back in 1972 abed partners started to change aid to those with no electricity grids; perhaps its not surprising that his work is at the human developmetn roots of digital un
