Highlights of 2008/9 discussion on whether world can afford to return to Wall Street Normalcy Dr Yunus asked UK’s Senior Microeconomist for an article which is published http://yunusforum.net/?p=80 It extrapolates ideas on a collaboration partnering game that Dr Yunus told my father about at the Royal Automobile Club, Londoners Last Sustainabilty Exponentials Luncheon February 2008, whose value multilpying network dynamics are also reflected at Grameen Solutions & Obopay web: http://www.bankabillion.org/learn

BankABillion Mission Statement:

By 2018 the world’s poor will benefit fully from mobile banking services because everyone with a mobile phone will have access to affordable financial services that empower their life and work. This includes access to
  • Savings
  • Money Transfer
  • Payments
  • Micro-Credit
Bringing the full power of Banking to the world’s poor people. In the union of the un-banked and mobile phone lies an unprecedented opportunity to overcome one of the most crucial issues we face today.Using mobile technology to deliver mobile microcredit services overcomes previously limiting restrictions of space and time by using existing infrastructure to give even the most impoverished to access financial services.The potential for immediate and broad global impact on the problem of financial exclusion is vast.
CreativeLabs  London-DC-NY-LA -Paris sponsoring World and London Institutes of Social Business (SB)- GIoSB.com and LIoSB.com -  invite you to open source this icon of The Bank that isn’t just a bank. In system designing the world number 1 organised investment in job creation, Grameen invented the three-in-one of empowering the community’s most underemployed with 1) their own bank, 2) village market space for every 60 businesswomen and 3) knowledge hub. When Dr Yunus dared to invest in ending digital divides with mobile technology in 1996, his first intent was to connect the 125000 knowledge hubs that his 7+ million members & owners of The Bank Call Centres. Today Bangladesh is a world leader in sustainability applications of internet & mobile as seen at  www.grameensolutions.com You can use the same icon to catalogue most vital services social business replication franchises. So, In the worldwide search and interactions to End Nurseless Villages it is worth noting how Grameen members need for health diagnostics and wellbeing insurance began with www.grameenkalyan.org in 1993. It linked in with the knowledge hub needs of :·   Health- in fact before Grameen Bank could get 99% repayment rates it had to form a women’s health and safety club since the state of 1970s Bangladeshi village women was absolute exhaustion as well as lack of basic knowhow in communally looking after each other·   Education – ie open source vocational knowhow both for women as parents, and for their next generation’s youth 

Today GNI also empowers by making nursing one of the most attractive jobs of girl power and attracting all the best digital transfers of medical knowhow the worldwide can experiment with.

Team leaders of LondonCreativeLabs and DCCreativelabs wish to make plans to join your celebrations on 26 Feb- we see the opening of the first Yunus University partnership in USA as exceptionally good news. I write to ask how we can help, and to share some details of the connections we have been making over the last 3 years so you can evaluate possible synergies.

Additionally if the best way to optimise collaboration is for me to make a half-day exploration visit to CSUCI in January please say.  There are at least 4 other LA region connections my first quarter diary needs to progress:

1 the social business clubs being formed around the bonsai movie http://bonsaimovie.com/ as one of the social business ventures of the global summit http://www.theglobalsummit.org/ . The two LA womens group founders/facilitators of these networks are treasured friends of mine.

2 connections with the LA based green children pop group http://thegreenchildren.org  who fund raised $1 mn for 2 aravind replications and have an online fan base of about 10000 youth

3 connections with Heath Row who early last decade used to run over 100 intercity clubs www sharing social capital knowledge connected with the then massive popular fast company magazine- you may have spotted that (Melissa’s at Robert Smith Business school and) my friend Alan Webber http://blogs.usatoday.com/oped/2008/05/giving-the-poor.html#more who founded Fast Company compered Wolfsburg; while Alan is San Francisco based , Heath Row is now working for google in LA

4 Rick Wartzman at Drucker Institute Claremont who hosted yunus booktalk LA january 2008 (claremont students are one of the 2 most active at http://www.mficonnect.com/ which started at grameen america with a different name)  

(Collaboration California is also important to me as my first job was in computer assisted learning for the UK National Dev Project in the 1970s so my father and share an amateur interest in how tech changes the world's humanity with sofia’s partner (tech wizard) tav and kazi islam of http://www.grameensolutions.com/ )

2010s Joy of Sustainability Decade

Dr Yunus' urgent goals for Joy of Life Decade are to demonstarte Yes We Can potentials of 2 more global markets to value sustainability of youth and future generations namely: global media and universities

Do you have clues for maps of how peoples can turn unsustainable systems round in time by networking with hi-trust practitioners?- Until we have found LA's number 1 journalist of Yunus,  and sustainability good news please feel free to RSVP info @worldcitizen.tv DC bureau 301 881 1655, JforH, $TRA WCB MC.tv

The Gossip at  DCcreativelabs.com :-

Sustainability's heroines and heroes - Yunus, Ralph Nader, Heather Booth, Nomi Prins, Miles R ....Who have you ever met in DC to talk about banks that are too big to exist? I don't believe we have a system of  government for people when it lets banks gamble up to 20 trillion dollars away at a housing casino once - as for twice that is beyond any idea of economics that scots have ever mapped

DCCL is an example of Transcapital Creative Labs - a peoples movement started by sofia bustamante in london after visiting dhaka to facilitate dr yunus  69th birthday dialogue (june 2009) 

Major questions that all creative labs ask and share creativity on are:

How can our citizens create and sustain jobs

How can we take back local banks small enough to invest in our productivity and sustainability exponentials rising out of generating communities

How do we return local marketplaces as exchanges where people empower local services where they are most needed

At the same time the worldwide nature of DCcreativelabs permits people to ask each other’s citizens what are the most human solutions to the world your city uniquely can offer or what are the greatest crises in your city that you would like to hear of other way round solutions to that people have entrepreneurially tested the sustainability of in other parts of the world

We commend you to go to the source website http://www.londoncreativelabs.com for details on global progress being made by citizens groups – at this web we will focus mainly on dc specific Q&A starting with how to reform congress who thinks that giving 20 trillion dollars back to the same managers that wasted $20 trillion is good governance for and by the people

    • Issue food assistance bonds backed by donor commitments.
    • Make purchases in advance.
