It took me 16 trips to bangladesh to learn that sustainability of all our kids will depend on adults improving on 5 collaborations at the same time- awkard!! ... but when some of wall streets top people only talk about connecting ESG - Abed spent 50 years connecting collaborations on S = health*education*food security times EG of Finance & designing collaborations valuing 100000 person lives matter communities ! more at teachforsdgs.com Over 50 years Abed validated an unquenchable belief no matter what change comes next women can make 100000 person communities resilient if anyone can.. AND GIRL POWER- did he find partners and platforms to value change like no other entrepreneur in 75 years of my family's reporting: 30 years ago i started publishing leadership chartering with Economist Intel Unit- in search of purpose ask who in world would miss what if xxx had not existe?; once you have made a list of who's and whats - how do you keep mediating the different trusts as win-wins instead of one side taking more and more until the purpose is no longer exponentially sustainable - for me it took 13 years elapsed time and 16 visits to bangladesh to understand how abed achieved something nobody else ever has and perhaps never will -you may be looking for WRJ who shares very different gifts in advancing human lot but the how of empowering a billion women is unique in scaling life critical last mile service capacity ... | We vote for Fazle Abed as the greatest Jobs Creator of living memory and dedicate The Games of WRJ to him - if you have a nomination of a greater jobs creator the younger half of the world need to be educationally connected to achieve their goal as world's first sustainability generation - please mail us chris.macrae@yahoo.co.uk www.WorldRecordJobs.com
invites you to play one of sustainability’s
most urgent games the younger half of the world can play. Make a pack of cards
with some names you choose from WRJ and others you and your peers have learnt
most from. Get someone to name a social or environmental challenge that many
communities need to solve. If you could tap the knowledge of relevant WRJ could
a local enterprise be franchised to resolve the challenge making enough money
to sustain the local producers. What is stopping this from happening? Is there
nobody in local governments, media or local colleges wanting to help? Is there
a lack of trained people? Is there no collaboration virtual community where you
can find people who can help and perhaps swap some expertise they want? Fazle Abed
spent 50 years of his life playing this beautiful game. Roughly speaking the
number of people he employed to help communities implement these franchises
doubled every two years or so -over 100000 when he left earth age 83 in
December 2019. The number of people he reached – over half of the women of Bangladesh
(over 50 million). The game also became well known in China (20% of the world’s
people) though less well known amongst another quarter of the world’s people on
the continent of Asia who had been ruled directly by the British Empire. Why
not? (Its complicated how professions have so far designed globalization non-sustainable
– see my father’s working life at The Economist tried to ask why not – see eg
teachforsdgs.com ) The partnerships Abed formed became the world’s largest non
government network. Amazingly, the first 25 years he played this game the
communities he was designing solutions for had no access to electricity -everything
had to be leant person to person. Then in his second 25 years he started
finding partners that could bring mobile and solar technology. Some of the
digital solutions everyone linkedin to abed are the world’s most popular –
including www.bkash.com the world’s largest
cashless bank in terms of customers. We have tried to include as many unique connectors
that helped Abed in our profiles at WRJ and at a blob we call www.abedmooc.com.
But this sort of resource -and indee4d the transformed purpose of education-
needs to support the greatest collaboration games of all time until the younger
half of the world are the sustainability generation. This is urgent. At minimum
everyone who teaches any age group needs to be helping youth play some sort of
collaboration game like this by 2030 if we understand the reason why nations
united to declare 2030’s timeline. |

There are human systems people such as Gandhi , Einstein, and Von Neumann that I would prefer no 5th grade teacher was employed without being aware of their importance to human sustainability. The urgency of this requirement translates into a basic literacy /common sense level of humanity that the 2020s needs. Whilst this is only a preference when it comes to national politicians (or the world's most powerful coders) the evidence is in : we are heading to extinction if such powerful people do not know the truths which were available at Von Neumann's death in 1957, appear to have been understood by President Kennedy but not valued wholly or truly by any US OR EU president since 1963.

-the picture shows the partnerships that a billion women thanked Abed (all his partners, students, education co-workers and village business entrepreneurs) most for co-creating and in the case of 6 X-collaborations Abed recommended sustainability generation complete in 2020s.

remembering A Giant
Reeta Roy
When I met Sir Fazle Abed more than a decade ago, I sensed I was in the presence of a giant. He is the founder of BRAC, one of the world’s largest non-governmental organizations, which has touched the lives of 125 million people.
Abed Bhai, as I addressed him, presented that unique and rare combination of qualities possessed by great leaders. Vision. Wisdom. Boldness. Grit. Empathy. Humility. He has been a lion of courage throughout his life — from the time he returned to Bangladesh in 1971 to rebuild the country after independence until the moment he faced a terminal illness.
In 2008, he invited me to visit BRAC. My trip to Bangladesh was more than a first-hand education about how an organization changes the lives of millions of people and contributes to the economy of a country. It was also a journey to reconnect with my heritage. Abed Bhai had arranged for me to visit Lahunda, the village of my paternal great grandparents and grandparents where BRAC had a microfinance program. Listening to the village women speak with such dignity about their lives left a deep impression on me.
Learning from BRAC and from rural communities in Uganda over the years influenced my views about how the Mastercard Foundation could create positive change in people’s lives. Working with Abed Bhai was akin to taking a master class on how to scale efforts to serve millions of people, yet keep in mind the dignity of each human being. One of his lessons was about imagining possibilities. For example, where some people may look past an empty field lying fallow by the road, he would see fertile land producing multiple harvests to feed hundreds of thousands of people.
Abed Bhai never encountered a challenge he didn’t like. He would observe, listen and size a situation, and envision how it could be improved. Then, he would get to work. Abed and BRAC were resolute about achieving and quantifying results. They are deeply disciplined when it comes to setting targets and tracking progress.
His enormous drive and determination to improve the human condition were also matched by his kindness, wit and humor. He loved to tell stories and to listen to people’s stories. These personal traits endeared him to many.
Not surprisingly, Abed Bhai faced his illness with his characteristic wisdom, pragmatism, and courage. Once again, he took charge about how he intended to live his life with the time he had. The lessons that he imparted will continue on in BRAC and other leaders he influenced. As I reflect on his life and influence on mine, I am grateful to have been in the presence of a giant.
