Harnessing Student Potential In Microfinance

http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/science/nature/8130130.stm I was priviliged to co-host dr yunus 69th birthday dialogue in June 2009. On his birthday the brand new YunusCentre was launched

Dr Yunus is forming partnerships with 12 different types of organisational typologies and leaderships gravities - these being the university partners to date. The aim is to leverage his world stage connections that launched to new levels of trust multipication with the nobel prize and the world's first global social business partnership Grameen Danone during a hectic 12 month period 2005/2006.

The opportunity is to make global grameen the world's favourite brand by standing for global partnerships of sustainability that are anchored by micro up system design models. http://yunusforum.net/?p=80 This can get us back on track with my dad's 1984 scenarios of what it will take if globalisation as overarching system design is to bend back to sustainability in these last Yes We Can years http://www.normanmacrae.com/netfuture.html

My understanding is that 3 webs (YC above and GSB and YF) edited out of Dhaka carry the latest news; when I see something important to connect round I will try and return here with a bookmark

This is one of the short youtubes I made of the meeting of the first 100 alumni of Global Grameen that was convened by yunus corporate supporter volkswagen during the week Yunus was in germany celebrating the 20th fall of the wall in november
although I have personally invited over 50 people to join meetings with dr yunus in new york, london and dhaka during 2 years of moderating 1000 bookclub and dvd 10000 , it seems that the sustainability stories of SB that we could be talking about most are only being clubbed out of london and dc by media, mediation and young people I know well and paris and wiesbaden; if you feel that your city could do more with social business bookclub stories, I will be starting the next 1000 bookclub around yunus neew book spring 2010; so now is a good time to start swapping stories of what sustainabilty SB compasses you most want to help co-navigate
