Here is my father Norman Macrae' s 1984 view of changing education up to 2024 -Western classroom education and funds being only geared to one fifth of millennials jobs- the missing 3 bilion jobs : renewing planet, renewing every community (girls other sustainability goals from green ones), using tech to leapfrog way above the zero sum economies the west's carbon-driven thing consuming empires were spinning ( dad was a teenager in RAF navigating over Myanmar, surviving war was taught by Keynes (Corpus Christi), then mediated end poverty's globalization debates at The Economist from 1948-1989). 2018 is 175th anniversary of James Wilson and Walter Bagehot's goals to transform English Constitution and economic system designs from Empire to Commonwealth trading maps
Dad's last project in 2007 started training education-centric student journalists and youth economists; our 2018 focus to linkin 7 summits with chinese-english translations
AIIB2018 with SCO018 are critical for china to friend india ahead of election year with particular urgency
to education and new development banking projects along the China-India-Bangladesh-Myanmar corridor; my mother was the daughter of Sir Kenneth Kemp who wrote up legalese of india's independence after 25 years of mediation of gandhi as mumbai's chief justice in the Raj; mothers family tree involving generations of Raj health workers and social lawyers
Dad's greatest non-chinese education hero being Sir Fazle Abed, BRAC Bangladesh
Fortunately Sir Fazle's alumni networks as part of 7 celebrated by Qatar's WISE led by her highness and UN eminent 15 leader Sheikha Moza are involved in 3 summits over next 15 months including one partnering Guterres on refugee learning at the general assembly of UN september 2018. This summit is advised by the same 15 eminent people as the project you announced Lord Stern doing on new development banking
I will visit China , Bangladesh, Qatar monthly during first half of 2018. Please tell me if i can share any networking information with your teams ahead of june 2018
Happy Jobs Creating 2018
Let's change education in time for May 2019: Beijing Belt Road summit global 2.0 to unite the world around China as benchmark for ecological prosperous, big data small mobilisation and peaceful ("Little Sister") civilisation
