from 2007-2019 this was one of fazle abed's biggest brainstorming gravities; i was lucky to hear and arrange for young journalists from different hemispheres to listen in during 15 trips i made from washington dc to bangladesh- i have been privileged to work in asia on over 50 journeys since 1983; bangladesh went from zero in 2007to most visited place because for me nobody's alumni will ever be more sustainbly valuable than abed's- nb i like to declare my biasses
abed had dedicated 50 years to a billion village women ending extreme poverty - at birth of bangladesh it was 90% rural; at his death 70% rural; by 2050 the aim is 50%
therefore abed said if my alumni have 3 goals while never deserting women end poverty, grow middle class and go green could be optimal triangularistion as far as my lifetime can see; urgently it will take at least 100 asian universities sharing solutions with 2020s youth if there is ever to be a first sdg generation- some rough ideas on which nations might lead in mapping this collab platform are here
