I see that DLAB has a lot on guatemala in its current newsletter (see below). JP Bonsen (because he's 100% student orientated) is Probably Naila and my most trusted  connector between dlab and mit media lab - naila have you got time to do a joint trip to mit this year.?
 Further more abdul latif is a major sponsor (eg they have opened a whole new water lab with dlab. Abdul latif is the philanthropy arm of Toyota franchise in middle east. I know the 2 founders of Toyota's main philanthropy network out of tokyo - the akira foundation. What we havent succeeded in doing yet (unless someone has a lead I dont know of) is connect in Joi Ito (the japanese leader now directing media lab).  I have made 5 visits to MIT specifically to understand their year round entrepreneur process that took 25 years to build (and see as their keystone to MIT being the number 1 job creating alumni network in the world) - I helped judge a minor phase of the mit100k a couple of years ago which is where I met then MIT student rodolfo (now also in san francisco) whose team project was to explore where students dreamed of accelerating crowd investing if the jobs act ever progressed fast enough to make that economical for mit student networks to play a leading role. While its a confidential file, I have the summary writeups of the 40 or social value entries to mit 100k of year 2012-2013 -content like this always bothers me as I see 90% collaboration potential between other youth entrepreneur projects but dont know how to unleash that
I would like to see a map of intercity hubs that are predominantly sustained by under 40 wizard youth technologists and their direct worldwide trades. Its my finding after 11 years of research of hubs that  tarted out of TheHub.net :: Home first office  (islington) that those hubs like kenya's ihub that enjoy a central location but sustain their overheads because of open tech projects (or in ihub case owning the ushahidi software) have totally different collaboration impacts than hubs that do not have their own revenue through open technologists- anyhow I have asked  a few people to start mapping where these  hubs are and whether their owners would happily see an association linked in around them. As first folowers , I dont particularly want those hubs in this association which are part of a chain like the-hub.net where most locations are not sustained by open source technology. I have many reasons for starting with linking strength between hubs that are net job creators through their open tech wizardry not through other means- though of course this can be up for discussion

1 west-south tedx 2d fortnight april 2015 - anna lu in san diego and kiva team san francisco next development meeting 11 november (with their new digital lending revolution www.puddle.com ) are pulling out all stops on this especially after hearing how world bank tedx was celebrated  - they have done one tedx before when partnering clinton university; anna's origins are vietnam but 25 years + out of san diego-
 while her day job is as adminstrator in university of cal system - her microcredit passion is showing students in san diego how to help hispanic women rebuild community health centers and their own savings circles- many of these women are also trying to fund families across the border- so anna's work is as it deep as it can locally get;   provisionally those behind elearning xprize in los angeles will also join in  - who else wants to amplify good news on youth summits during 2nd half of april- then west-south tedx leaders can negotiate fully with nobel peace laureate summit out of rome and atlanta (november 2015) because yabt.net has the best youth and  mobile entrepreneur processes before and after and not just at summit. 
-  
anna needs advice on any partners/sponsors to include or not to include -eg atlanta will probably be coca-cola dominated while I noted your process water-bottling entrepreneur competition is pepsi-sponsored
2 in Bangladesh its BRAC.tv  Sir Fazle Abed not yunus that is 2010s millennials world benchmark for : cashless banking and building rural health systems, bottom-up crop science and open educational systems  - at youth summit jim kim mentioned sir fazle abed in same breadth as paul farmer; knowledge flows of farmer and sir fazle abed are both supported by George Soros (eg this budapest event summer 2012 celebrating 20th year of open society networking with gorbachev, gorbachev's other main network be the nobel peace laureate summit- it was Soros who gave yunus funds to experiment with grameen phone in 1996 which is where naila became first female director ; sherry attended the fashion4development celebration of sir fazle at start of un week 2014- sir fazle wishes to share his life learning with youth anyway that open learning partnerships can; however its true his only networks in your region are out of haiti.
 I started informally leaking good news on learning to sir fazle in april 2012 when he and japan ambassador to dhaka were kind enough to host a remembrance dunner to 
my father's work
 on the net generation revolution. Dad was a Keynsian whose last days as a teenager were spent navigating raf planes over bangladesh in ww2 (ie the opportunity and threat of economist designing everyone futures is they mess everything up unless ending poverty through next generation is how they value ) . His last project aimed to get 2000 youth to understand bangladeshi revolution; his first asian reporting project at The Economist was consider Japan 1962, and then how Asian millennials would be the majority of net generation millennials.

san francisco and boston are other capitals that can shape elearning- san fran famously through khan- boston in practice area- global partners-in-health millennial networks, cashless bankings coders, other mobile leapfrogging developments (eg dlab and media lab and mit100k entrepreneur competition), and jack-ma-berners lee future of internet needs to linkin to big data analysed and mobilised to empower small enterprise networking
 
3 educator bernardo javaquinto chile is trying to unite catholic universities in search of global social value business cases wherever these are opposite of MBA cases; his friends are urgently seeing if this culturally connects with what Pope was changes in terms of youth public service- 
8 years ago I took my daughter out of catholic school in USA because 3rd grade social studies book asked her to learn by heart that Entrepreneurs profiteer don't create jobs (the opposite of the 1800 origin of E)
<4 my mentor and educator taddy blecher  out of s.africa started searching true E's missing jobs creating curricula in 1999; his partners include branson, mandela elders, google africa, maharishi (and gandhi-montessori schooling systems) - while branson operates a local branch out of Jamaica - one would need to converse directly with taddy to understand what Jamaica branch empowers- coding entrepreneurs definitely-- notable alumn on WBG youth summit 2013 speakers panel
<5 as i think you know better than me jim kim has made a point of promoting latin america experts at youth summits and tedx:
5a in world bank week of meetings, kim's contribution to china was voting for jack-ma vision of next changes to internet as integral to #2030now - big data mobilised for small livelihoods= mission of bangladeshi technologists partnered by Intel: case they have recently partnered with ifad and usaid to try to triple rice exports out of cambodia by small farmers in under 3 years; I think they may be looking for one lead flagship partnership project in each continent- eg stefanos could verify that as he's already starting africa's search; 
intel also sponsors external consultants in interesting countries- at last weeks meducation fair at usaid hq the intel booth was manned by a Chilean! I am not an expert in Craig Barrett's other billanthropy interests: I know he wants an ethical valuation curriculum; I have heard he may be big behind the scenes of amazonian rainforest research; I am an email friend of the past president of ecuador rosalia artega who is also interested in rainforest networks and connecting them with childrens education- before he became Brazil's  President, Lula sponsored the leading bon aqua curriculum around the schools of the foz region of brazil where fully one third of fresh water reserves are mapped -he also red-eyed between world social forums in porto alegre and world economic forums in davos 

6 As an informal partner in publishing the world record book of job creations - our framework journalises win-win viewpoints of 12 social movements including the AAA millennials (Americas-Asia; Africa). Historically I am extremely weak on searching Americas millennials -if you can tell us which best cases you'd be happy for us to promote up to 2018 that would be wonderful. 2018now is when the war between shareholders of The Economist will decide whether the paper is closed down as founder James Wislon wished -should the paper ever lose its social valuation viewpoint -end hunger and youth capital abuse being any economic journalists only hi-trust raison' d'etre.

survey 1of child centric education

My dream: everyone experiences Harrison Owen OpenSpace After%20the%20Rage.pdf

IF SCHOOLS were child centric they would make age relevant interventions:

if anyone is illiterate at age 6 it only takes 90 days to change that - best of all a literate kid can be main helper in 20 minute session - see sunita gandhi

finacial literacy would be practicsed from age 8 - see aflatoun ( works in 100 countries

from age 10 pre-teens would have access to pfysical and mental health studies designed peer to peer -see Lancet

no kid would leave primary school without knowing how open space meetings/teamwork is facilitated

teachers would be celebrated for clarifying which skills involve experiential learning not classroom examination - while there is some recognition that music and sports involve practice, its shocking that coding isnt valued this way ..

==============

Do you have life-changing moment to share? - what was it and what did you think or do differently after it?

example until 9/11, i assumed that (good) futures are happening somewhere in the world and would be searched out so that all could communally replicate them;  === 9/11 caused me to question whether global connectivity will give us time to find sustainable solutions for our kids- i became particulaly interested in places where good education leaps appeared but did not get app'd the world over - one example actually goes back to my favorite 1990s advances in schools that a small cliuster of new zealand schools pioneered - download it here https://oiipdf.com/download/the-learning-revolution

i welcome discussion of this book's parts at any time rsvp chris.macrae@yahoo.co.uk if you have a solution every community that develops youth could be cooperational

in 1984our book with economist editors 2025report made the case for 40 year commitment to every child identifying own skils dashboard and maximising AI curation of this- we valued this as sustainability critical worldwide cooperation - we see no logic for changing this concern

== we live in an age where most up to half of knowhow of techforgood changes every 3 years - we needed mindsets for exploration not for being standard examined; a nation that makes its college students its largest debt class is likely to collapse economically socially environmentally if web3 is designed for celebrating sustainability cooperation; and if web3 is not designed for neough yout to linkin the first sustainability generation then we are all heading the way of the dodo

I am learn to learn

TECH - What is IT? and which exponential multipliers most impact human and natural futures?

AI   >. silicon chip singularity (ie when one chip > one brain in pure analytical capacity) - science fictiion no moore

who programs the ai - the race to include lost voices eg girls- the world of statistics re=-examined like never before (eg previously mass statistics very weak at coding meaining from numbers)

Biotech  >> Affective science (loveq and emotional intelligence remains human's unique edge over artificials for at least 10 more years!)

Some people say that Virtual or Augmented Reality has advanced at its best so far in last 12 months that there are hardly any qualified teachers only pioneering explorers- does this matter - well its VR which is your gateway to web3 - intead of just a mobile device you will like wear  a visual sensor system; equally others argue that you shouldnt worry about how fast you put googles on - what you should want is to take back ownbership of what you spend time creating virually- look at the small print of the big platforms you probably dont own anything without them..maybe this is a generation issue bu interstingly the met-generation can now work on chnaging anything that old systems are destroying (eg climate) ...t 

 IOT which things will now have brains and be as mobile connected as you are

Crypto - can communities celebrate financiang their own most urgent sustainability cooperations? if they dont who wil?

Cyber >> Drone - opportunities and threats of public spaces- first in spaces like the arctic circle if we dont use drones we will get no warning before the big meltdown

-the mkist memorable western campus event i attended in 2010s was tufts colllaboratory summit convened mainly by arctic circle youth under 25; 

one of the main debates how to help teachers in arctic circle schools empower their students to use virtual reality to visit other arctic circles schools communities; many of the changes and solutions are analogous; I am reminded by educators leading the compilation of virtual realty libraries of the DICE acronym - a reen might want to do something dangerous like climb everest, why not VR simulate that? there are impossible things a trainee doctor will never be able to travel inside a humans gut but that can be VR'd; there are catastropghic simulations - you would rid the world of bees just to test if donald is wrong about nature being more powerful than he is, you can simulate it; or the future of smart tourism may be curation of what a community is proudest of being visited for - this way ecotourism, cultural appreciation exchanges can be twinned to maximise celebration of each other- and by the way friends of the tourist can join in virtually- of corse this raises a metaverse question - that Hong Kong is leading the world on

being 100% public - good and bad hacs- note context matters - context 1 smart city context 2 isolated vilalge no moore context 3 make a huge land safe at borders
