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

1.3 brac ultra poor

 When we look through the 6 most distinctive financial collaboration platforms Abed originated over 50 years

1.1 changing aid to business microfranchises and long term "direct transfer" partnerships in which elite global aid organisations became bottom-up partners and thereby learnt deeply about theior own purpose

1.2 microfinacce

1.3 brac ultra poor

1.4 brac city bank for small enterprises and as a gateway to capital poilicy decsiiosn

\1.5 cashless bank bkash.com

1.6 (internatjonal) hq 2 netherlands - neither remittances nor international funding could be done with singular hq in dhaka, it may be that history will associate abed even more famosus with ultra poor than microfinance

as well as associations such as global association of banks with values www.gabv.org currently annually mediated by MIT presencing network led by otto sharmer

I think there are 3 ways of looking this

good thing if it means people know that they are missing out on complete end poverty understanding if they fail to study abed as a unique source

bad thing if means that the world still needs to glorify separate instruments/solutions rather than their integration - brac 6 finance platforms embed the poor in nation building , all value chains that they can effectively participate in

a challenge if theorists write up bup case studies as complete as opposed to evolving methodologies

https://hummedia.manchester.ac.uk/institutes/gdi/publications/workingpapers/bwpi/bwpi-wp-0107.pdf 

this paper by manchester university on bup is outstanding as being dated in 2007 (still fairly early on in global recognition of Ultra ); from it we can see how much entrepreneurial concept testing was in motion 



since abed's death in dec 2019 when asked for who to contact with the most knowhow - brac's finacial services to end poverty is the soimplest guidnace question - his son shameran abed worls tirlessly to live up to his father's knowledge
