here is a very rough list - want to find way that people post in any news they see that connects them with a case ; obviously we can share html

over next 36 hours will try and set up one blog thread per case people can add details to initially at http://journalofsocialbusiness.blogspot.com/

(provisional) Joy of :Life Day, S. Africa, July 2010 153

Report cm

Met dr yunus about 12 times  (4 dhaka, 4 usa, 4 europe) including his 69th birtdhay dialogue to speak to starting first week 2008 and launch of first social business book which friends 1 2 3  4 5  6  7 and I networked dr yunus and 1000 readers and 10000 dvd users around

Have constructed log (sample) of most seminal meetings of dr yunus since 2005 when he first started to co-brand global social business partnerships in sustainability; in his previous 30 years he had designed 10 times more economical models fdor sustaining market exchanges between poorest villagers on most life critical service areas : health, food, water, microentrepreneurial education, energy, roof over heads, safety and financial services. Ultimately nobody in the modern world has system designed so much job creation, and his invitation to unite the network generation in building poverty mu8seums is the most exciting goal in history. For these sorts of reasons his maps on how to turn round Wall Streets’ and other global systems  that are spinning unsustainably are the most vital knowledge areas that 7 billion beings and leadership could be openly interacting around. imo

Sofia, yunusbookclub and birthday dialogue friends and I have started to brainstorm - what if youth and citizen networks could be surveyed to identify 20 big goals which if they were achieved through microeconomics (community to community) by 2020 would mean that we had bent the curve away from global colapse of sustainability, to sustainability rising

We would very much like these to be open goals that could be tracked and celebrated worldwide but where london and UK would retain some collective ownership of them, and be the first to celebrate events and perhaps prize givings on each at the london sustainbility olympics 2012. We can imagine setting up a different welcoming panel of famous or expert to celebrate practitioners in the 20 sustainability games whose goals we have identified.

If we dont come up with some united proposal on something like this out of the UK, there is a risk that other European capitals wiill take over plans for the olympijcs which yunus is asking all social business networks to swarm to as a key moment in time of the 2010s.

some examples might or might not be

1 since the 2000's the greatest change in ending southern hemisphere poverty - nomination Ingrid Munro -  this particular game/pitch being one relevant to microcreditsummit - still the most extraordinary network I have been able to map - and one whose summits 2009, 2010 in south america and africa, and 2011 while hosted out of spain is being sponsorewd by queen sofia who particularly wants to publish best southern hemisphere progress by micro- both the idea of huge golas and famlous people weklconing grassrioots practioners who do most to find solutions is borrowed frpom microcreditsummit

2 the founding group without whom clean microenergy would be furthest behind  nomination - founders of grameen shakti who have not only won clean energy prizes at ashden awards but whose number also includes the market decvelopment of http://microenergycredits.com

3 the person who has done most to change sustainbility curricula of students over 18 including MBAs

4 the person who has done most to change education's development on children's and teenager's job creating capacity

if you are interested in piloting this survey through networks or peers you connect, please tell us. I am aware that choosing goals that save the world from a micro perspective may seem to involve somewhat opposite framing from prizes set up for macro-professionals and hugely resourced inventors to lead . I think that could be part of why the survey is worth doing

Game boards for these goals and indeed any goals that need abpove zero-sum collaborations as the net gen comes of age will be at www.isabellawm.com and associate webs and for open source use.

cheers
