In 2001, when Madeleine Albright was leaving office as America’s first female secretary of state, interviewers asked her how she wished to be remembered. “I don’t want to be remembered,” she answered. “I am still here and have much more I intend to do. As difficult as it might seem, I want every stage of my life to be more exciting than the last.”

if you now where optimal case studies are published we welcome the chance to celebrate - chris.macrae@yahoo.co.uk
sir fazle changed top down disaster relief and development from trickle down charity to locally sustainable business models
brac partnerships - built on trust in abed to be the largest in ngo world can be mapped in two halves of fazle abed's 50 years dedication to poverty alleviation before which he spent 10 years ascending to east pakistan regional ceo at royal dutch shell - and like gandhi being a teenage student abroad in fazle abeds case being in the 200th class studying markets and machines at glasgow university started by adam smith and james watt
first quarter of century - all peer to peer or paper based as villagers had no aceess to electricity grids
second quarter of century as partners brought mobile and solar to villages how could brac go 3 dimensional
- global where other nations wanted to replicate brac community solutions,
national market leadership so that brac could design total value chaines to integrate poorest
local- last mile- across 100000 village microfranchises
we will try to build some tours celebrating the legacies sir fazle hoped that he had seeded - in particular brac university as one of the lead partners of soros osun network launched at world economic forum round 20 colleges and researchers most concerned with youth being the sdg generation
and understanding the fit of 7 parts to the financial services value chain which ranged from fintechs number 1 platform the unbanked bkash linkin in final partners of fazle aded including jack ma's ant finance and gates foundation.
ultra poverty research- whose systemcn alalysis earned boston poverty lab a nobel prize
we also miss one of the 5 deepest networkers fighting against infectious diseases a coalition that came together with soros funding to include bostons jim kim and paul farmer and medecins sans frontieres in ebola hit liberia and sierra leone two of the nations that soros had selected for brac international to support

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.
