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?

Dear Dean Abela

Class of 2017-2018 is greatest Franciscan-Entrepreneur Values Opportunity to Change the World

Why?

2 Factors:
Pope Francis’ Motherland Argentina hosts G20
Everywhere China’s Xi Jinping travels to meet national or business leaders he asks 3 questions:
ü      What missing infrastructure (rail, bridges, ports pipelines etc) could change local connectivity with the world
ü      What digital big data small platforms and apps can change the world eg Ali Baba’s worldwide free trade platform for small enterprises, understanding blockchain partners of end poverty and leapfrogging interventions (ie where a market sector (eg cashless banking)  is changed by technology preferentially applied to poor before established value chain owners knew what was happening
ü      How could targeted vocational education including 4 languages (English, Chinese, Mother Tongue, Coding ) change the world of youth opportunities

On May 15 China Belt Road summit was joined by 29 national leaders (including heads of Argentina and Chile) as well heads of world bank, IMF, UN

Maps of 11 sub-regions of the world were recommended for ongoing collaborative analysis – South America being one

There is also the opportunity to change choices of Donald Trump. Kissinger briefed both Jinping and Trump in December that the last thing youth anywhere needs is a cold war of sustainability goals where every nation has to choose between China and USA as an ally. The Chinese Diaspora are working really hard on keeping all information flows open for trumps advisers – ultimately they would even like to convert him to green and no walls but they will keep sharing maps benchmarking development progress in all the dimensions above

In addition to published communiques, Chinese students and I have collected many hours of taped conversations including why the new head of the UN sees china’s way forward as a gamechanger for refugees. We also partner a hotspot device developed by Intel so that up to 50 people can catalogue practical videos wherever they want to open space update summits on multilateral development

I also have connections with may of the greatest girl empowerment solutions hubs after 10 years of visits to Bangladesh and now 3 years of visits to BeijingChina’s development revolution is based on respecting “women hold up half the earth”.

If you are not the right person at Catholic University to discuss all this with but someone else is please advise me

Thanks
