Some times the world’s greatest job creators go in pairs. Nowhere is this more the case than celebrating the turn of the century’s greatest end poverty marathon racers – Sir Fazle Abed and Nobel Peace Laureate Muhammad Yunus.

 

SYSTEM LEARNING OF ENTREPRENEURIAL REVOLUTION (ER)

 It turns out, as Adam Smith foretold in the 1750s,  ending poverty is about diagnosing where broken social systems, especially in times of potentially revolutionary progress, give a child next to no chance to grow health and livelihood. End Poverty’s whole truth valuation by microeconomists involves changing the gameboard so that health and livelihoods blossom bottom-up. In this context Muhamamd Yunus played the role of youth’s hope maker and sir fazle abed sustainability’s rural engineer.

 

The Keynsian Schumacher had explained to a mid twentieth century world that: ending extrme poverty was primarily a systems crisis of millions of villages. The ER breakthrough - microfranchising a markets value chain so that hardworking families (illiterate or without infrastructure as they may be) take over enough of the local markets to grow is a most valuable economic lesson whether you began life born to a poorest village mother or have been forced into being somewhere that youth now find they have to bail out their elders compound fault-ridden systems

 

Example of How to Transform a Market By Microfrachising its Value Chain

.

Owning a few chickens to lay eggs was typically a most valued income (and food security) opportunity of a village mother in 1970s Bangladesh.. BRAC analysed that the number of eggs laid by the traditional scrawny chicken couldn’t amount to a living wage. So BRAC innovated the breeding of a superchicken that laid many more eggs. The problem was this hard working chicken needed periodic veterinary attention. Three jobs franchises – breeding superchicken , laying eggs,  veterinary services for village chickens were supplemented by 2 more job description templates: how to retail the now surplus eggs to villagers requirements; how to produce chicken feed from areas not capable of cultivating human crops. In all these 5 microfranchises, created nearly a million jobs in BRAC’s race to end villager poverty, and had made BRAC the leading player in Bangladesh’s poultry market. The whole value chain is designed so that once poorest local female producers can sustain a good livelihood. Being owned as a village trust, BRAC isn’t sucking out profit to any global shareholders the way that is uneconomically/unsustainably designed into most national or global brand leaders of the poultry market.

 

Q&A Is there any global market that doesn’t need a benchmark microfranchise if worldwide youth are to celebrate sustainability retiring to every local community around the world? In the rural transformation of a value chain sir fazle abed recommend the 3 E’s Effectiveness, Efficiency , Expandadbility (once you have tested small – how a microfranchisde sustains one community – is it collaboratively expandable to all analogous communities and integral to a total value chain)

 

HOW AID BECAME THE MOST BROKEN MARKET OF CENTURY 20?

 

VALUING REALITY’S GREATEST HEROINES AND HEROES:Back in Bangaldesh where a nation was turned into a lab for development by the world’s poorest mothers living in villages without electricity , commmunications or running water, end poverty solutions –and world wide knowhow sharing – needed collaboration of the most trusted kind. But inconveniently in the noisy tv advertising and trivial pursuit celebrities of the western world of the late 20^th century- champions are often made to fight each other in this case by aid funders who could have known better.  The unintended consequence, no western academics have yet appeared with the ability to teach the greatest job creating solutions any hemisphere has contributed to a planet desperately needing to be united around social world trades of youth’s sustainabiliity goals.

Muhammad Yunus 3 waves of hope

Sending Thousansd of young students sent out to serve 3600 women per investment branch – from 1983 after 7 years of perfecting microfranchis

Thousands of solar engineers sent out to the villages- from 1996 but this took nearly a decade before scaling got on a moore’s law acceleration pathway

Sending women out to value mobile connectivity in the most extreme livelihood creating ways that end poverty partnerships could conceive of (from 1996 in Bangladesh and then across several other neighbouring countries)

 

SIR Fazle Abed and family

Designing theingfrastructires before and faster yunus waves – in fact it was  BRAC that was first in the pre-digital age to found  grassroots rural women social networks in education, health and job creating bankers most trusted bottom-up roles.

 

Action Learning - Some key co-creators

Yunus- solar knowledge of Neville Williams;

 Experiments of ingrid munro starts up happy families youth end-slum banking with the impact that Kenya becomes a pro-youth partner and the continent’s most collaborative digital ihub;

queen sofia- consistent supporter of yunus through thick and thin

Nurjahan Begum mother of microcredit

Professor Latifee- negotiator with regulators

Obama’s mother- makers towns Indonesia –one of the origions of womenworldbanking

Monica Yunus – youth arts superstars giveback

 

Social InnovationActors who transferred from yunus to abed

Quadir family with mit and dubai connections

Soros

Shorebank founders

 

Forward4Empowerment – hybrid partnerships out of Bangladesh mainly now connected by brac as world’s largest ngo, educator and collaboration network in youth sustainability goals
