In our view; the root cause of the world wars was that over nearly 2 centuries only about 20% of people (mainly white European/American) had access to the benefits eg electricity grids and emerging telecoms. Particularly across the Asian contient wher4e 60%^ of people lived, colonial empires especially Britain had not shared engineering except to control trade. My dad Norman Macrae hoped that teenagers would enjoy happier and more productive lives than serving as a navigator allied bomber command world war2 burma campaign. Thanks to Americans he survived; met Keynes, became The Economist's sub-editor of ending poverty, met von neumann whose industrial revolutions 3 ,4 he became biographer to; was delighted in 1962 to see that he his war time enemy Japan and Taiwan had started up 2 Asia Rising models supervillages and supercities. By early 1970s fathers started debating Entrepreneurial revolution 3, 4 in the economist also known as industrial rev 3, 4. Dad defined IR3 as the era of racing to end poverty with win-win community shared solutions networking value that big corporations and big government alone could not sustain; for more details see our 40 year future history 2020report written 1984. By the mid 2020s tata from every gps on the planet would not be real time governed by humans but ai algorithms if these were diversely calibrated. During my father\s life- the all time great entrepreneurial revolutionary was fazle abed whose Collab platforms have formed the world's number 1 civil society network, helped celebrate empowerment of 1billiongirls, and offer 2020s benchmarks for sustainability generation. Lets explore 30 collabs abed invites all sustainability millennials to linkin as well as ideas to resolve final system conflicts eg climate that Abed demanded that hundreds of universities' graduate partnerships and humanising of AI would achieve in time.

2 FROM WORLD FOOD PRIZE SUMMARY OF FAZLE ABED 2015
extract PDF testimony: In times of uncertain food security as the world’s population is projected to burgeon to more than 9 billion people by 2050, BRAC’s triumphal programs are scalable and sustainable, many of them in the form of enterprises that deliver a “dual bottom line” of a financial profit and a social good. Through BRAC, Sir Fazle has been a leader in empowering women and girls through microfinance, education, healthcare, and encouraging their active participation in directing village life and community cohesion. “We have always used an approach to development that puts power in the hands of the poor themselves, especially women and girls,” he said. “Educated girls turn into empowered women, and as we have seen in my native Bangladesh and elsewhere, the empowerment of women leads to massive improvements in quality of life for everyone, especially the poor.” BRAC has recently increased its commitment to girls’ education in low-income countries with a five-year pledge to reach 2.7 million additional girls through primary and pre-primary schools, teacher training, adolescent empowerment programs, scholarships and other programs. The Chairman of the World Food Prize Selection Committee and the first World Food Prize Laureate in 1987, Dr, M.S. Swaminathan, has praised Sir Fazle Hasan Abed as a “strategic thinker, and a man with a future vision.” Dr. Swaminathan lauded BRAC and its founder, writing that: “While it was set up in the context of the post-war reconstruction in Bangladesh, and its initial focus was on basic needs and strengthening livelihoods, Abed soon realized that the better strategy would be to complement state efforts rather than repeating them. BRAC is constantly innovating. While funding was important, Abed realized that the organization needed some internal financial resources in order to steer its course, rather than become diverted by donor agendas. He therefore set up a considerable number of commercial enterprises as part of the BRAC ‘brand.’ These include printing presses, manufacturing industries, a hotel, conference facilities, retail outlets and the private BRAC University, among others. Surpluses from these enterprises go into supporting BRAC’s development programs.” And finally, Dr. Paul Collier, professor of Economics at Oxford University and author of The Bottom Billion, summed it up when he called BRAC “the most astounding social enterprise in the world.”

warning compered with hopes from these chapters in 1984 we have so far under-invested in photosynthesis , so over invested in arms nuclear & carbon - lets hope biologists who claim 2020s will be decade biologists-tech save youth from extinction are correct
unite the world in seeing leadership debates since covid zoomed the world are here - and frankly most teenagers up would be more entrepreneurially and sustainably educated debating these contents than what goes in in class rooms be they ivory league ruled or . bureaucratically examined round standards which decimate diversity and the collaboration networks younger half of world need to connect to save our species

it is easy to forget that a majority of humans do not yet have access to piped water sanitation; we met jim kim around 2009 - he'd chosen the name world toilet to be unforgetable wherever smart people chatter about human development
as well as being in un sgd 6- clearly lack of toilets adds challenges to health, even to washing (a key to coved limitation); it also is part and parcel of the other half of the climate challenge
while developen nations need to reduce spends on engineering unless they can find clean energy inputs; the gap of the least developed world dends on much wiser carbo spending on piped infrastructured as well as maximising natural or wireless access

Access to clean water, sanitation and hygiene are basic to progress. Yet more than half of the world’s population still lacks proper sanitation. As countries urbanise and population grow, the most disadvantaged will continue to bear the brunt of poor sanitation. Access to safe and adequate sanitation is also fundamental to public health in pandemics, in lowering the risk of disease and preventing premature deaths.
The World Toilet Organization’s work over the last 20 years has been critical to raising awareness and mobilising collective action to tackle the problem. The World Toilet Summit has succeeded in bringing together stakeholders to find lasting solutions, and the World Toilet College has trained more than 23,000 people on the importance of sanitation. World Toilet Day has been designated by the UN since 2013.
The World Toilet Organization’s efforts have made a significant contribution to achieving Sustainable Development Goal 6 on Clean Water and Sanitation for all. I wish the World Toilet Organization continued success in uplifting the dignity and livelihoods of vulnerable populations globally."
