Youth Ambassador 5000 & 69th birthday week dialogue in dhaka

Anywhere we could reach in Dhaka -including Grameen (Dr Yunus for 150 minutes, Yunuscentre, health, energy, education, internet and mobile for poor, international microcredit trust ), BRAC , British Council - we discussed the belief that Dhaka is the sustainability investment epicentre of the world, and that all youth ambassadors of sustainability need encouragement to explore how to connect dhaka's micro economics maps.

Already, social business and future capiatalism catalogues prove microeconomics system designs to be 10 times more economic than anything normalcy's MBAs and Wall Streets rule over.
