what if preventing extinction now depends on action learning curricula of 10 most loving humans? inconveniently in 1984 i co-authored 2025report arguing sustainability depending on changing education systems- then i was only 60% confident as a statistician now we have data to be 95% confident- this does not mean we know all of the 10 most different 10 to learn from though 2 have just died since dec 2020-others need to be headhunted eg can the Un headhunt pope francis please and make sure every operational division connects its AI with franciscan human1? if Biden doesnt want to help advance that he should resign -sorry the last president of any western nation that millennials could have gained most from was JFK - what did he mean by us interdependence; why is he the only world leader in technology's moores lay decades to have given the next generation a decade long goal (moon race) - half of humans are under 30 and their generation has mots to gain or lose- can we please design womensverse.net to vote for which under 30s woman the world can learn from
In overview,
this nonlinear system evolved like this. From 1972, Abed found himself
responsible for designing village business micro franchises and training illiterate
village mothers -initially up to 15000 mothers in a meta village of 100000
people which Abed had built with his live savings. Micro franchises could change
the whole of aid if the entrepreneurial and education challenge could be met profitably
operate priorities such as supplying rice to end starvation distributing basic
medicines: preventing unnecessary deaths of infants and mothers was the
priority purpose of these business. At www.economistbangla.com
we aim to list 50 microfranchises that Abed helped design over 50 years – they are
mainly to do with health and all dynamics of rural : 1 life saving food
security, 2 rural crafts (Aarong was a skills network begun by Abed’s wife Ayesha)
etc creating income trades with citizens, 3rd being a worldwide collaboration
epicentre on forestry and other climate adaptability solutions the rural half
of humanity can contribute as millennials are first generation to leave a zero
footprint.
Over the next 15 years further education of village
mothers included practice of oral rehydration nationwide; doing vaccination
half of all mothers households.
4.2 After
15 years the second educational focus of brac became designing and training
teachers for 40000 primary schools and then pre-schools. All the curricula were
printed by brac. By 2010, Brac’s first 25 years of educating 10 million children
in Bangladesh
4.3 Brac
tried to keep linkingin any graduates of its primary system. Teenage skills has
been a missing area of worldwide aid right up to 2015. However where it could
brac developed scholarships for secondary and increasingly it partnered libraries
and community centres in peer to peer training of teenage girls. Pretty much
any skill that female entrepreneurs can make a living can be matched with a
brac training a brac training module
4.4 At a millennium
goal party it is rumored Mrs Steve Jobs first asked abed why are brac solutions
not served worldwide. In the late 1990s villages were only just beginning to be
connected by mobile and solar so Abed was extremely busy with digitalisi8ng
brac’s Bangladesh operations but by starting brac university 2001 he reasoned
he could both link researchers who wanted to learn in Bangladesh and start
designing some worldwide solutions. Nationally the goal would be to become the
best university during the rest of his lifetime; globally he hoped to connect
dozens of new university partnerships in line with the fact that brac across
all its service domains was becoming the worlds largest NGO partnership. From
the get-go brac university was the destination of global researchers of
cholera, oral rehydration and related diseases – college name JP Grant school of public health. Its second
global worldwide hub would become the MA in playschool design with partners
such as Lego foundation and quite soon the world bank as well as all un
agencies concerned with refugee children. Extraordinarily it was as late as
2010s that annual summits started celebrating education laureates. Abed became
a core knowledge collaborator with Asia’s 2 most impactful summits -wise led by
Qatar’s first lady in association with her girls university campus and a parallel
summit WISH celebrating last mile health services. Yidan Prize an luminaries
out of Hong Kong – now the life long pursuit of former TenCent founder Charles Yidan
4.5 Early learning
playschools was the first global focus of abed- he believed this was a missing
opportunity everywhere and this also matched solutions for refugee education
that5 were multiplying in urgency
4.6 The
idea of Educational Luminaries can be thought of as Charles Yihan’s legacy gift
to Abed though it also mimics his life’s joy of making partnerships in education
in every practice area – especially the primary sdgs: food health, building
100000 person live maters communities, financial services for the previously
unbanked. Yidan is well placed to choose edtech luminaries: with the Naumann AI
Hall of Fame pilot surveys, and out of eg Stanford as connectors of everything
else that non linear 21st c education partnerships need to COLLAB
& celebrate if todays youth are to be the first sdg generation.
