eg 6 weeks curriculum to youth entrepreneurship
1 introduction to what is Youth Entrepreneurship and why is it more important in 2010s than ever before
My fathers life work editing youth economics at The Economist suggests worldwide youth need
to understand the following future history challenges of 2010s: (each worth a week's study)
From
keynes pro-youth economists are those who behave as if they know that a place can only grow if capital is structured
so that family's savings invest in next generation out of that place- but will global capital be structure that way ahead?
or will it be taken over by keynes greatest enemy "the macroeconomist" who hires himself out to richest, most speculative
or most political?
From Entrepreneurial Revolution dialogues hosted in The Economist since 1972 (see first survey The Next Forty Years) we know that the systems war of integrating mass and digtal media introduces these
critical issues (each meriting a week's module)
week 2 challenge 1 will multi-win models be designed
(way above zero-sum) so youth can innovate with million timss more collaboration technology? will we joyfully take economics
beyond the industrial era's scarcity models of consuming up things to knowhow models which multiply value in use? what are
the compound opportunities and threats of a) going borderless and b) embracing communications death of the cost of distance;
how will society license 21st C (bottom up and open) professionals to be experts in preventing externalisation instead
of 20th C's experts in externalisation
Did
we learn the right lesson when usa withdrew licence from Andersen to audit due to being worst of big 5 global accountants in
ability to transparently audit sustainability exponentials and unseen wealth). andersen partners lived in a zero-sum value added world- they believed the more billions they were worth to global
businesses however much goodwill they lost with cheatin local societies that billions +0= billions; even these hard-nosed
managers might have made less badwill decisions if they had correctly model value multiplication. If you zeroise trust of
society you will eventually becoe worth billions*0=0. More examples of this maths at valuetrue.com and trilliondollaraudit.com
weej 3 challenge 2 : explore reasons of norman macrae's first book journalising net generation (published 1984) and its maps of why 30000 microfranchises would need to be searched out-
that is community service solutions that are replicable wherever life critically needed and where value is mainly or wholly
retained in community of production;; how did this connect with schumacher's 2 million global village world as the only way to design a planet where next baby born anywhere has a fair chance
to grow up healthy and productive
week 4 challenge
3 what millennium goals are only intended as PR and which ones will we invest in youth of net generation achieving? how do
you audit whole global and local secors purposes for responsibility of achieving the milennium goal sector is most relevant
to?; which millennium goals can unite all 4 hemispheres , different cultures, rich and poor? - for
example how does defintion of purpose of education as "learning a living" fit into celebrating this heroic time
understanding phases of net generation's first 30 years since 1984 and why we are all now ever more urgently being
confronted by irreversible opporunities and threats of 2014-2024
the open versus the closed tech movements' -what people like joi ito at
mit media lab
mean by saying we've seen moores law apply to silicon capacity but we havent yet seen it viralise the apps all societies most
collaboratively need
the job creating versus job reoplacing movements of what info technology is for
understanding what organsiitional change is really neeed if net generation is to be responsible for innovating
more new knowhow than whole of human history
searching out top 100 collaboration leaders sho still
believe 2010s can be worldwide youth's most productive, sustainble and heroic time http://wholeplanet.tv
searching out a public mass broadcaster who represents
the people's good news empowering bottom up community which is where the contextual integration of all sustainability challenges
begins or ends
week 6 what are some of the most exciting
experiments liberating 2010s as youth's most productive decade:
moocs themselves
youth entrepreneur competitions including those that prize youth re-editing missing schools
what can we learn form south africa's
free university movement animated around mandela partnerships operationally coordnated by the blechers with some economic
publicity help from eg branson and some tech help from eg google africa
peer to peer movements
maps of educational netwrks that are celebratuing learning
a living
massively debating results from community broadband experiments
listing gamechangers for norman's other 7 wonders beyond
education - eg cashless banking is a game chnager of financial services and it also celebrates the queestion: who can best
start a currency chain so that it invests in youth
contratsing where princuples of pro-youth economics are exactly opposite way round from economics that
doesnt value youth's futures
why
norman considered since 1975 asian economics as core to sustaining worldwide youth centry 1976-2075- with particular foci
on 3 countries whose economic models he was most curious about: japan, bangladesh, china
