Project SB3 Planet Economics Forum needed so youth face world bank officials on open source solutions to ending ultra poverty and other climactic solutions to 2020 goals

The idea that youth know some things about replicating extreme solutions to community sustainability crises may sound wonky in the west but in India for example, 5 years ago the country's president asked youth's help in tearing up all non-sustainable curricula they found in schools. My experience is that young americans are more gutsy in exploring and observing possible solutions to community sustainability cioses than high powered officials living in side the beltway. For pursposes of debate (and if I am wrong I dont mind the world saying more fool chris) I will start with a specific case that I will type up tomoorrow on why my experience is that some youth newtorks know more than the world bank's CGAP on how ultra poverty solutions replicate

Graduation pilot project  combine

consumption support (eg some rice every day),

access to savings services, l

livelihood training,

 the transfer of a productive asset (eg 3 goats) to help jump-start an economic activity

 Good news for the curious- the actions takens by the world bank to explore how to transfer Bangladeshi knowledge (in this case) of empowering the ultra-poor to end poverty are notable. There is a lot of diversity in terms of the operational hosts (from a premire league microcredit Fonkoze to an organisation SKS many who believe in communityy ownership of banbking for the poor would prefer never to have existed) of these pilots, and we hope that youth who visit them will report back fearlessly on the promising, the unpromising and curious results. http://graduation.cgap.org/
