Can You Help Muhammad Yunus’ worldwide Search for 12 Types of Sustainability Partner?
For
2010 these appear to be the 12 types of partner that Nobel Laureate Muhammad Yunus believes can most urgently collaborate
in revaluing sustainability of the world and its global markets
Can you help Yunus, Global Grameen
and his 50+ partnerssustainability to date find more collaborators in the contest between microeconomics
and macroeconomics rule over what globalisation we compound?
Sustainability Collaboration
Partner (CP) Type 2010.1
Example
Micro
Sustainability’s Further Refs: Opportunities,Threats,Questionmarks
CP1 Social Business Microeconomics case Replicator
Grameen Bank – has about 50 microeconomic
franchises to replicate around the world in addition tothe famed microcredit banking for the poor. These
range from the most economic village model of solar energy to exciting applications of mobile
CP8 Global Corporate Brands
Danone started the most extraordinary revolution in global
branding by partnering Grameen . This shows that world class brands can go way beyond the era of greenwashing - how many other
corporate brand partners in sustainability do you expect Grameen to make by the end of 2010.?Current registered list 6; current
pilot list about 14.
CP9 University Yunus
Centres
About 7 Universities have
so far joined forces with Yunus in contributing parts of the missing business curriculum of freeing global markets to value
sustainability and collaboratively empowering local community building. Europe leads the way with 3 – USA hopes to catch up with extraordinary California Centre opening end Feb 2010.
Example of 8-collaboration partnership web
that started in a university -endless nurseless villages (aka Gramen Nurse Institute ) began when Dr Yunus gave a talk at
Glasgow Caledonian Uni -Nov 2008 -more
CP11 DigiYouth Job Creation Labs & Forums
Since 1984 economists have forecast that technology will be used in the 2010s to create
or destroy a billion jobs and the way youth are empowered to co-create is pivotal. As yet only Dhaka youth get thismicroentreprenurial challenge –at least
that is what the head of the Nobel judges came to celebrate with 1000 youth there summer 2008. Can you help the moderator
of Dr Yunus 69th birthday party http://londoncreativelabs.com/conversations/and co-moderator of dvd 10000 http://ynus10000.com/map where other youth & digital job creation labs are rising?
CP4 Place Leaders – with governments lagging in collaboration
leadership around resolving climate crises, who are the leaders in your place who are standing up for popular votes to return
sustainability around the globe. Please note this issue is a huge one for true collaboration friends of Dr Yunus because Bangladesh
is most likely to be the first 100 million nation to be washed away if we twiddle our climate clicking fingers too long with
out coordinating action
Credit
where credit is due – the royals hunt of the sun across Europe is one of the most encouraging place leadership networks for sustainability we have seen with Prince Albert in Monaco and Prince Charles in the UK networking funds
and prizes. Traditional microcredit royals expected to join in are Queen Sofia of Spain and Prince Guillaume in Luxembourg. Please send us news of your nation’s hall of sustainability fame leaders.
CP10 Social Business Funds Leaders
Three cheers for the geographical region of France leading the way on this with the first fund being one of Danone’s contributions
, next 2 funds emerging around the Grameen Credit Agricole partnership and Monaco
CP3 Social Business festivals/summits
timed to snap with your capitals number 1 photo call of the 2010s.
Berlin trailed social business festivals during its 20th fall of the wall celebrations
in 2009; London is asked by Dr Yunus to be the biggest SB festival of the early 2010s; cities are queuing up to form a collaborative
millennium goal SC festival circle in 2015 with Milan taking a lead
CP2 Global branded foundations that get social business dollars recycling is far more economic
that one time charitable spends
Nike Foundation is a lead example with their Girl Effect brand putting up $5mn in a partnership connecting Grameen
Nurse Institute with the worldwide race to end nurseless villages
CP5 World Hero Stages Beyond Tigers –its a strange media world when 50 types
of sporting sensations can become world famous overnight but so few world cups exist for sustainability games heroines and
heroes
As yet, Nobel is the only
stage with world reach equal to any of the sporting world cups- what will be the second world stage to join in?
CP12 Citizen hubs needed to quality
control open source replication of social business franchises and help traditional causes convert
http://Yunusforum.nethas been looking for citizen hubs to start this with monthly 100 meetings-
as yet sustainability capital clubs haven’t emerged the way social capital and internet clubs celebrated the start of
the 00’s
CP7 Collaborative
Advantage of Nations- if Adam Smith was alive today, surely collaboration is the great network economics age advantage and
the way to go above zero-sum in the way most global professions haven’t yet understood
Bangladesh France and Germany seem to be the lead countries in collaborative advantage of nations with India looking a serious contender- more reports needed!
CP6 Trillion Dollar Audit and transparency mapmaking
epicenters needs rectifying global markets ruled by systems that are too big to fail and this too big to free their market
to value sustainability’s upward exponentials
As yet Dhaka is the capital
en route to every other sustainability capital – where will be the second capital that professions transform to value
compound future rising instead of crashing

CSUCI. We hear rumors social business curricula will start Feb 2010.- Searches show little so far- eg
The First
Annual Emerald Awards™ of Ventura County will be celebrated at The Emerald Ball, slated for late February or early March
of 2010. Close to 400 friends will enjoy gourmet local and organic cuisine, organic and bio-dynamic wine, craft beer,
and an organic signature cocktail. The Emerald Ball is currently in the planning stages and will feature a fabulous
and unique “Sustainability Soiree” that will honor the leaders of Ventura County and raise money for a scholarship
to CSUCI’s California Institute of Social Business.
2 Grameen's Creative Lab http://grameencl.com/ began in Germany connected with a creative agency in Wiesbaden and hundreds of Yunus supporters who meet November
in Free Univesrity of Berlin. It seeks by 2012 and London's Sustainablity Oympics to connect 100+ global
brand ceos in benchmarking how to free sustainanity of each of their global markets
3 Outside of the world's yunus epiCENTRE
in Dhaka there is only one fully authorised Yunus Centre - in Bangkok Thailand, AIT- some of its latest activities:
meetings
with CEOs of the HSBC has been particularly supportive in helping us to network with the banking
and business community.
briefing on the Grameen model of microfinance to
the Senate Committee on Monetary, Finance, Banking, and Financial Institutions about two weeks ago. That went very well.
The Prime Minister of Thailand has just announced that he will chair a new national committee
to establish guidelines for promoting social entrepreneurship. Expect that there will be a role for the Yunus
Center at AIT in this effort.

This is the first time the worldwide's most successful network at ending poverty has been hosted out of
the Eastern hemisphere. It is a huge oportunity for NW hemisphere delegates to build deeper cultural bridges. Reading the
diaries of Mahatma Gandhi is recommended. For those who want a first introduction to the East's Yin & Yangs, Alfonso
Lingis, one of Satyagraha's deep western philosophers has donated this debating piece on cultural flows, and the spirit
needed to bridge them.
One
always sees things in joy. It seems to me that there is a very fundamental
kind of existential decision we make: do we believe
our joy or do we believe
our neutral states? In the latter case, the move is always one of prudence -
not to make decisions in a time
of enthusiasm when one is carried away,
but rather to wait until everything cools down. I think one of the most
important things there is -
I would almost say one could make this a kind of
maxim for life - is to always make decisions in a state of joy. One should
believe one's joy more than
one's prudence, or any cautious or fearful state
of mind"...
Obstacles to Dialogue Today, by Alfonso Lingis
1.Cultures in Dialogue
Today the great centers of wealth and power that derive from the production and control of information--Houston, Silicon
Valley, the Ruhr, Lyon, Milan, Tokyo-Osaka, Shanghai, Taipei, Seoul, Mexico City, São Paulo--drain off the brain power
of the outer zones--the scientists but also writers, architects, artists, and musicians.The planet has
also never before seen such immense migrations of poor peoples--so much of it forced or illegal.Thesepeople may bring only low-tech work skills, but they bring their cultural identity.The great cultural
capitals of proud nation states--Paris, London, New York, Sydney, Bangkok, Singapore--have become multiethnic and multicultural.
But that has always been the case.Mohendo-daro, Memphis and Thebes, Mahabalipuram, Angkor, Djenné
Djeno in the Sahel, Teotihuac·n, Qosqo--all the centers of great cultures had been cosmopolitan cities, with markets
full of foreign merchants but also with whole quarters of settled foreigners.What we have come to know
as distinctive and dominant civilizations--Egyptian, Persian, Chinese, Roman, and Mongolian--were the result of drawing toward
themselves resources, artefacts, inventions, and concepts from the most diverse ethnic areas and cultures.Anyone
visiting Angkor Wat is struck to see altars on which Hindu deities dance around altars with seated Buddhas, friezes depicting
everyday life so obviously carved by sculptors who had come from or gone to Borobudur, Chinese guard lions..

When the Bottom
Line Is Ending Poverty - Business Week Muhammad Yunus is a humble man who would resist being compared to Mahatma Gandhi. But the two have much
in common as campaigners for social progress. While Gandhi's goal was the end of colonialism, Yunus' is just as grand: He
means to reform capitalism to make it a tool for ending poverty. Think of him as Gandhi with a BlackBerry (RIMM).
and to post us a bookmark with views on these 3 questions: what inspired you in the book that you want to be a citizen co-leader of smba
what you commit in the future of
life to do differently because of the book
optionally if you have any ideas on how the 5 leading Dhaka team members
and the 6.5 billion human beings can get to know how to celebrate humanity by bringing purposeful organisations to every community,
please make suggestions
