note from the diary: march 2019 is deadline for sending best city livelihood cases to head of unhabitat- her start the 20s report is expected to issue premier league of livelihood cities (and border hubs) and sdg economic zones relevant to eg goal 11 sustainable cities and goal 5 women audit places/culture for families to thrive- it is not yet clear whether there will be an extra legend for green vaut le voyage or twin sister cities- we invite youth to monitor this by the 11 main regions of BRI.school and mother earth's diversity - we are aware that arctic circle needs adding - tell us if we have missed out anywhere else that will most determine whether humans exist in C22

Ganesh Devy and month of studying east-west, and south asia's pro-youth learners

 #BR2 Ganesh Devy is one of world's greatest living students of Gandhi
Applies his experiential learning to:
support of some of india's poorest itinerant tribes- family relevance grandad (sir kenneth kemp) hastily issued legalese of india's independence- it failed to re-edit precise colonial laws on wjo has right to property- just one of the legacies of 450 years of colonisation that still messes with sosuth asia's sustainabilouity systems

applies to hundreds of indigenous mother tongues that fre endangered

when i met ganesh in 2005 he was one of 3 main sponsors of global reconciliation netwok- where people from over 70 cultures ariund the word testified as to how hard communities can find it to reconcile hiostory;s gfreatest horrors- the event was hosted at indira gandhi cultuiral cengter week before xmas 2005- sadly many of the participant next projects turned out to de disaster releif from te tesunami that hit much of the hemisphere 10 days later

related question how do western millennials practice gandhi's currcila or oyter spiritual curriculum

with great difficulty - its hard to imagine any 20s something today being given the time and space to grow that larry brilliant had to study india gurus with the result that he became one of the world's great conquerors of infectious diseases as well as google.org's first mapmaker

if you really seriously need to know how ganesh devy and other study gandhi mail me chris.macrae@yahoo.co.uk and i will make list of lifelong learnings i have found most useful

Mahbubani #BR1 Singapore

Mahbubani Past dean of lee yuan school of public service singapore- author of the twin book series - has the west lost it? can asians think?- mentor to the wise summit of education laureates founded by sheikha moza of qatar round the inaugural livelhoods-education laureate sir fazle abed of brac (who revolutionised how asia's poorest nation bangladesh was rebuilt by poor village women)

reference see 1977 survey China and more surveys of The Economist's end poverty editor at  normanmacrae.net on celebrating each others nations
Why should the two thirds of the human race who live in the eastern hemisphere be modest about demanding their children lead collaborations of the sustainability generation? Has the west's media been lying to its youth for decades about purposeful livelihoods and how 4000 fold more communications technology changes the world if education in which everyone needs to value every opportunity in their communities of belng both a lifelong learner and teacher?

===========================

National U Singapore Dean   Kishore Mahbubani

We are not aware of a 20th C national leader who relentlessly questioned the future jobs implications of developing a nation with more goodwill than the late great Lee Kuan Yew (father of Singapore as an Independent Nation)

When we  recommend worldwide youth (and parents, educators) to study miracles of post-colonial win-win trade fro the East - we recommend studying a cultural fusion: japan, south korea, the china disapora superports, China mainland and Asean, and Bangladesh and notably the India of Gandhi's dreams

Singapore seems to us to be at the crossroads of 2 great human interest stories- the superports which not only provided the initial inward investment into the Chinese mainland but which are now part of belt road mapping as a curriculum students and teachers should be rehearsing everywhere. When it comes to inter-hemisphere trade. it bridged the far east superports like Taiwan, Hong Kong, then those blossoming on China's East Coast with what has become the UAE's transformation beyond being a mix of desert and oil wells started by Dubai. Of course, the question that 5 million people superports on their own can't answer is what nations with huge lands and from 100 million to one billion people need to do to join new technology's death of distance age.

One of the soft clues we may visibly celebrate a degree of multicultural harmony - prcacticed  wherever Asean spirit has blossomed healthily and naturally. Moreoiver, The medical anthropologists Jim Kim and Paul Farmer have show the franciscan way not only builds last mile healths services for all but lives up to the continent wide debate that Latin America hosted in the 1960s. While North America was racing to the moon, the half of the continent to its south still largely without electricty grids was rehearsing what if new technolgies are preferentially app'd to the poor.  Due to cold war and assasinations of Kennedies, Latin America never widely answered its own beautiful question but miracluously girls across Bangladesh villagsd did. This happy story is discovered when the microeducation systems of Sir Fazle Abed and Muhammad Yunus are truly mapped from the bottom-up –see how the WISE education laureates were founded so that the world’s most trusted first ladies could share this good news woirkdwide

Professors Mahbuban's book on Asean is a treasure in showing how to expolore culture and value goodwill faiths. He clarifies how the Asean club of nations has in many ways sustained more trust across peoples than any regional pact. Frankly speaking the european union looks dismally bossed over compared to what Asean has empowered at its most 

There are also more spoecific lessons from singapore such as:

eg how public housing was deliberately built to mix up diverse cultures and as a community platform taking pride in your building and neigborhood; it would seem that

Singapore's housing policy is one every supercity should understand (where we defeine a supercity as one designed so that all families thrive and are sceure that we are investing in job craeting education

Then again Singapore se4ld=-examines iteself as what can the smartest learning isle be for its people and for everyone it trades with

What is remarkable is the start of Singapore's independence came pretty suddenly. As reports show, the British rather suddenty informed singapore that there was no longer defence budget to support it and in those early years  cultural relations with malaysia were complex as were the extraordinary micro questions of who to build hi-trust trading relatiosnhips with? The answer emerged with the world's firts superairline and superport- become the shopping-torist stopevrt space of the world. Display every kind of future quality and value good. Suddenly Sinagpore was living up to some modern-day Kipling's paradise the way Hangzhou has lived up to Marco Polo's most beacutiful city of markets in the late 1200s.

Today singapore is a strong supporter of every belt road the continent can map -and why wouldnt every hemisphere want to play the mapping game of how belt roads can maximised each youth's entrepreneur inside?

-In particular trying to help china and india see how much their emerguing friendship could add to the region. It also helps that malaysia has commiitted fully to testing with jack ma the EWTP idea that ecommerce can bring free sme world trading. Few people make a stronger case than mahbuban on how natural it can be if china and india retake the position that eixtsted up to 1800 of countries being the largest fair (value chian) traders in line with their population size. Mahbuban makes a wise facilitator of how much the west needs to adjust id peace and millennials sustainAble world trade are to be won for all our children. Singapore as a small and great nation can help make this case that especially to those who somrimes fear china- the sustainabilit generation requires many collaboration ideas that it is best for the world's 21st C centre of gravity open sources with supercities and milennial tech wizards and girl power everywhere (not patented as only invented here)

Mahbubani is very clear how western media and leaders havent prepared their peoples to see the opportunites of the 1000 times more  tech connected woirld (2016 vs 1946) ; and if this is the investment that has chnaged the wprld's possibilities as man designs structures on the same global scale as natuire's we need the most urgent climate leadership to blossom even faster than the superport learning isle model did over the last half century

further referneces -WESTERN POLITICIANS/MEDIA FAILURE

Over 45 years ago in The Economist, we srarted hosting 20 years of debates on why the west needed to prepare for a 21ts C learning economy in which all people thrive. By failing to map this,

we risk losing sustainabiliity of our species, as well as missing the opportunity of the best of times: whenever a girl or boy is born she has a fair chance at living a brilliaint life. As a pure population numbers game, this means that all parents and educators should have been helping kids celebrate:

• china-asia-pacific century (see surveys 75, 77); 1975 Asian Pacific Century 1975-2075  1977 three peoples china
• entrepreneurial revoltion (see 76 and 82),  1976's Coming Entrepreneurial Revolution; 12 week leaders debate; 1982's We're All Intrapreneurial Now 

• tech leapfrog models (see 72 and book on changing education), hese are the most exciting times to be alive
• end of the bossy western politician (see 91). 1991 Survey looking forward to The End of Politicians

Mahbubani not only makes this case but explains why all asean peoples should now be mediating positive relationships between chinese and india youth especially on :

1 economies built round goirls education,

2 media that celebrates tech wizards of big data small and borderless sme-markets world (see how Jack Ma faciliated this at China G20 in 2016) - 

which summits going

forward 2018-9 can help the world unite

around these valuation logics howver much they take away the western poltician's power to boss.

trudeau saviour of english and french speaking race

as you may know the french and english were the main colonisers of africa and asia and slave traders - from 1500 they destroyed sustainable community trades all over the world with mercantile colonialism until north america declared freedom  of entrepreunrship from colonisation in 1776 - immigrants did pretty good job of global free trade up to moon landing (though not internal community buolding in which buses were still segr\egated to mid 1960s and blood was spilt over 2 kennedies and one king)l sadly late 20th c mass media embedded fear across the nation, vietnam proved one war of generosity too many, oil shocks started to muddle why wars were being fought- and congress toitally failed to celebrate the fall io the berlin wall welcoming the people of russia into a fre world

this left it to canada- to wait to ask is the world of mobile millennials sans fromtieres really being run for the big brother club of 7 nations or 20 nations or for 195 nations

the first chance came in 2008 when america and its EU G7 buddies destroyed youths futures yet again with the most monsttrous of banking frauds (subprime)- and a total absence of judges able to do anything about it- heck knows what a supreme court full of geriatrics is for -

 so canada  helped celebrate the g7 being replaced by the g20, and agendas being set by the homework of citizens group  -none with more gusto that the year 2015-2016 first of the sustainability gpoals era- each time a g7 baton hosted the g20 it didnt understand the process at all all until trump finally declared the g7 itself worthless in 2018 leaving the g20 with a heck of a lot of space to open- meanwhile for this not in the G20 China has opened up G195 meetings which start by asking are the world's ports inclusively mapped given that 90% of world trade is shipped -and particularly given the old world's crises with landlocked nations- have Roads (of rail and cable and green energy) been designed so that no community is left out of 21st c connectivity -more at valuetrue.com

toronto is overwhelming favorite as all america favorite youth city -its got some wats to go in living up to blockchain by a great source of mentoring in the Tapscots; it responded to jack ma's offer to help create a million jobs with extraordinary gusto as you can see at Gateway17.com - well done Justin Trudeau- youth democracy in the west hasnt sustained such goodwill leadership for 500 years- the next trick is for canada to lead the way in 8 arctic circle nation empowerment of the sustainability generation - probably mother nature will be the judge of success or failure across #BR11 Acrtic Belt Road

three cheers isnt quite enough for neville wllliams team including bob freling at www.self.org - back in the day when american politicians loved their peoples including under 30s americans, President Jimmy Carter wanted a future clean energy vision so neville was hired as america's first green energy czar- from which starting line he became the western world's number 1 advocate of microsolar - he personally educated dr muhammad yunus on how to do this in 1996 resulting in grameen shakti - the first bank anywhere outside of china to install a million solar units (an important time as yunus and the quadirs mobile phones for the poorest women needed juice) while bob's wife who spoke chinese showed micro soar to some west of china communities

jeff skoll was perhaps the first of those who made a billion or more from internet  (he was ceo to omidyar's ebay) and "retired" to do something completely more social with his money-

he started skoll foundation which attempted to segment drayton's social entrepreneurs at ashoka by those who scale openly efficiently and effectively

in days before youtube was mainstream, he talked ashoka into being sponsored to produce 16 global social entrepreneurs video dvds set with 2 hours of interviews per GSE- precondition was that the series must feature the two poverty-alleviating world impacting entrepreneurs ashoka had never scouted out - bangladesh's fazle abed and muhammad yunus

ashoka chose the other four which quite frankly were weird choices - while its true that aimed to be part of a globalisation dialogue their entrepreneurial use of making the most for the bottom up remains questionable namely

tepper-marlin whom drayton believed had solutions to factory workers livelihoods

olaf grajew who was thought to be changing brazil's ability to value corporate social responsibility as well as claimed to be co-founder of world social forum

the former world bank executive who founded transparency international- whilst a worthy dialogue space its never been clear to me that it keeps the poorest out of harms way in any particular transparency crisis -also at end of day TI is bureaucratic or legalistic not run by entrepreneurial and empowering spirits from the bottom-up, (in eg india the hunger project (particular during its first decades led by the gutsy lynne twist whose later books on monetaary flows are far mo0re detailed and diversified than a wall street banked would deign to imagine) has for decades led the practice of trasparency accumukated around poorest (women) being ellected locally to bring knowledge to ho ti end poverty in teior vilages

 and its also rather germanic - which isnt a problem except germans having no border with the med sea cerstainly have helped lead the eu when it comes to  policy making all round eu borders or indeed comabtting subprime with the opposite of austerity-its as if german economists havent fread keynes 101- but then we cant expect won-win world trade rules from anyone in charge of wielding the euro as currency to make germwn indsutry ver more competitive at expense of all others

and himself bill drayton= previously in oersonal correspondence bill had said that he would not specifically advise on which of the 2000 social entreprenurs in his roster had most scaleable solutions for 2 reasons- he did not like being asked to value one social entrepreneur againat another , and anyway most of ashoka's entr[pfreneurs are elected by their own national committees

skoll went on to bhoist the world championships for social entrepreneurs at oxford annually - while some scaling heroes have energed- really not that much in pivotal spaces like china- in part because oxford buisness school exceutives havent untl recently shown mjuch a=interest in china- 

the hunt for world social entrepreneurs also influenced schwab of world economic forum - who set up his onw stable of laureates - initiially these were scouted by people like triple bottom line's john elkingtin but in our view schwad's who's who of scaling enegtreprurial revolutuiin is most inteersting when it links into particlual places that wef has given most unique voice to - middle east from 1970s and china over the decade or so that as summer davos on ne chsn;piions has been hosted out of china
