 Dear Professor Chen - Harvard Author QuietRevolution Wiego Mission-FamilyTree

I wondered if you could give me some advice on whom and how to contact someone like Malloch Brown or Greg Chen or Shameran Abed or anyone concerned with Fazle Abed's biggest idea connecting his life's work and higher education

Soon after my father Norman Macrae died in 2010 the Japan Ambassador to Bangladesh invited me to 2 brainstorming dinners with Fazle Abed. There he told us of his legacy intent to connect brac university with 100 graduate-female scholars networks of sustainability goals generation . I went to Bangladesh 15 times to help file notes blogged at  http://www.abedmooc.com 

For many reasons - from covid to how Abed's illness accelerated before he could fully brief the new vice chancellor he had chosen, to barriers raised across Asia by Trump etc - the University collaboration idea (and other tech partnerships like that with alipay) are off path even as they remain the most scalable chance for under 35s to leap ahead and support Guterres Summit Future 2023. 

On the tech side I am now helping coordinate research for an AI Hall of SDG fame with Von Neumann's family - my dad became his first biographer and this month 30 years later a new Neumann bio is out. I have footnoted a bit more context on how father was The Economist's 3ed half century sub-editor of end Asian poverty (that being what founder and Adam Smith alumni James Wilson started 1843-60)

We can now see that the 5 compasses needed to respond to schumacher's question how to end poverty of a million villages correspond to the 5 core public service markets that a transparent analysis of eSG would value expoentially:
S2 access to human energy - ie security of food, water. clean air
S3 access to last mile health especially basics for infants, children and mothers
S4 With over 60% of humans working informally: Access to livelihood education (community experiential and small enterprise learning) so that villages enjoyed full employment through positive cash flow models
S5 Building (servant leadership) 100000 person lives matter community . Human rights most exciting entrepreneirial revolution has shown that even without tech a dedicated public servant leader (eg adopting franciscan paulo freire values) supporting the world's most entrepreneurial mothers can empower 100,000 person communities where all lives matter. more at abedmooc.com

You could call my father Norman (teachforsdgs.com, 1 2 4 The Forest Gump of entrepreneurship). He tried to value the borderless knowhow millennials would most urgently need to action as the worldwide sustainability generation. By 1976 his Economist surveys of Entrepreneurial Revolution were advocating that places' services and system maps needed to prep opportunities for 21st c youth to make the best of 2 experiential learning worlds:
1 world class digital networks
2 lives matter last mile community network where children and families develop

Father had been blessed with multiple good fortunes to get to 1976 from his birth in a British Embassy in Russia's Konisberg of 1923

he had survived being home schooled in british embassies in some of Europe's moat hateful place notably Stalin's Moscow and places where Jews were trying to escape from Hitler

he had survived spending his last days as a teenager as navigator allied bomber command burma campaign

in the first 6 years after world war 2 he was mentored by 3 people whose innovations views most mattered to world class joirnalism: john von neumann, sir geoffrey crowther , maynard keynes (NCK). 


**From von neumann dad was given the biggest scoop of worldwide journalism. Ask leaders what will they be doing with 100 time smore tech per decade 1950s to 2020s; that a million times "moore" if they are planning 30 years (half the world's population ahead)
**Geoffrey Crowther had edited The Economist's centenary autobiography in 1943. Because of The Economist's' collegiate instead of individualistic viewpoint, Crowther's work isnt simple to reference academically. The 3 sources I use are the common sense of editorials in The Economist during his editorship, the 1943 autobiography, a published series of lectures he gave at claremont. Additionally Crowther like all those living up The Economist's 1843 founding would start every economist alumni off by studying Adam Smith (which fortunately for Norman had been the only books he had with him in Burma).
**Keynes ; in the final chapter of the general theory of money , interest and employment keynes asks a most valuable question that he was concerned his final graduate classes honored as alumni of his knowhow- practically speaking next generations opportunities and threats are exponentially locked in by a handful of people- do you see wo these people are and how is transparency/human sustainability brought to the consequences of their decision-,making

 Dads wartime experiences put google maps in his head a generation ahead of most other intellectuals and place leaders. He was deeply concerned how world war 2's root cause had become the G8 empires (7 white representing about one sixth of the human race's diversity though most of earth north of the tropics. To father permission to sign one annual survey a year from 1962  was a great joy -this came after 15 years of writing about 1000 anonymous editorials published weekly (including only journalist at birth of european union as well as connector of interdependence mindsets which included President Kennedy as well as the 3 aforementioned wizards). Father's chose as his first survey how the rise of japan offered a model around which the two thirds of humans who are Asians could rise- in 1962 the model was already multiplying win-win trades for people surrounded by east asia shipping lanes - japan s korea taiwan hk and singapore (with notable thanks to 1962 of the peace umbrella and engineering foci that usa had actionable freed these peoples to design).

 www.Olympics22.com Hi Jeanne/Fady- sorry about length... do our energies most deeply support each other?

can female humanoids solve the biggest media crisis in the world? -  where could Jeanne visit in Boston (early april?) as well as if you feel that what Martina Von Neumanns want to see as first AI Hall of fame matches what you'd like to see game change the next 18 months (a timeline Guterres has set 2023 Unga summit of futures of all beings)

WHY WOULD MATHS GUY LIKE ME SEARCH FOR PURPOSE?

In the 1980s i helped 2 boston professors collect largest database  (express software first of its kind in decade that minicomputers mattered)  of what societies wanted from globally branded corporations. By accident french hq company i was working at became responsible for all surveys in Asia - about 500, starting with unilever Indonesia 1982: my first asian trip - I have now traveled to Asia over 50 times and Unilever's original question- what helps poorest Asian muslim women has been a common thread whilst noticing chinese diaspora multiply trade everywhere certainly what has grown engineers'  supercities (something dad first surveyed in The Economist of 1962)...Starting1988 Economist survey "year of brand" (micklethwait who we gave the story too now edits bloomberg) I have tried to link people who value any sort of open-but-structured communications/behaviours round this question: what would world uniquely miss if XXX did not exist? (XXX could be the UN it could be zbee (beingAI.com)  it could be von neumann it could be whichever is the world largest corporation; or it could be which ever asian female olympics star you trust most as wanting her generation to share in being superheroines) aka www.womensverse.net

. 1999 in a triple issue of journal of market management i guest edited : valuing corporate brand reality (& my book brand chartering focused on leading unique organising purpose).                                                        - you can segment "the world" that xxx compounds consequences into many different subnetworks either demanding or serving  the purpose (and then transparent leaders have to show at every cycle of governance how the life of that promise makes or breaks each constituency's trust as  compounded/integrated truly by unique purpose). Ironically if a physical engineer does not relentlessly integrate foundations - the whole falls down. With tangible accountants or apparently intangibles engineers like zukenberg it appears the collapse only occurs when it has brought us all down. The same could be said for I presume (globally ignorant) biotech designers of covid... so, we could have known for at least 30 years now that sustainability generation in a chaotically webbed through world of human and artificial relationships composing requirement for a totally different audit need than most western boardrooms have ever yet used though when i worked in the japan of the 1980s best japanese (and potentially all Asian consciousness led) companies applied governance round purpose (actually founders of most organisations that grew with society tacitly used a purpose audit but mbas who take over from them suffer from the harvard mba virus opposite to purposeful founders.

which  XXX could be a corporate brand, a billionaire,  the lead humanoid branch of robotics, von neumann alumni, zbee , hong kong - any system that gravitates communities of life. From 2002 harvard with the exception of 2 people (one interested in deep qualitative interviewing, the other interested in communities wpf practice) hated chartering question especially as I had spent 10 years at price water house coopers applying it to missing measurements when the only metrics a board uses are 90 day tangible accounting. In 2000 my main ally  in dc (author unseen wealth) at georgetown law school was fired by bush's inner circle because she got too close to asking ahead of time what  was purpose of enron, worldcom, other fake utlities that texas and andersen accounting brought to the millennium...conversely mit connected alumni across boston were interested in what would world of 21st miss if mit alumni did not exist. Edward Roberts at sloan business school who probably introduced year round entrepreneur competitions into every faculty instead of just a business competition wrote a report - without mit usa would miss both unique purpose of 21st C job creating higher education and engineers for good. 

Jeanne I write this - firstly fady has been living this inside his peer generation of mit for most of 21st C ;;secondly because I have a lot of questions : what sorts of conversations might zbee most want to be linkedin wirh ; having studied western media since i graduated, its all too easy to amplify mass hatreds;  much harder to app media to celebrate what next generation most wants to advance human lot around; 

: you might think educators would make it is easy for the next generation to  sustain the futures bur currently for whatever reason in the west, at least, Ed has be polluted by media and lost safety in community- unesco has just published a report saying education is broken everywhere ..all sorts of other agendas where over 60s are cashing out of the world instead of investing in millennials; notoriously 300 trillion dollars of western pension money still doesnt recognise any sdg innovation investment as asset grade!

here are some specific questions about the period between now and end of april - in other words before during and after jeanne's us trip

1 can we help with whom jeanne meets in boston (mit .. tufts ...wherever else humanoids and robots or questions about von neumann legacy connect- eg berners lee still says the web he wanted to design doesnt yet exist- is there a zbee subcommunity of how can friends of zbee help friends of berners lee)

by accident tufts is part of hosting a million student conversation on climate on march 30 (its main other partner is all of soros open society networks and so OSF leader malloch brown who author the 2000 millennium goals while at   UN); guterres has said the main summit he wants to host in 2023 is futures of all, not COP futures as only defined by 200 nations leaders

in my life time the one thousandth of the world's people from hong kong have contributed more than any other one thousandth i can think oif (with possible exception of true mit /neumann alumni)- it could be incredibly timely if jeanne could contact HK people at www.yidanprize.org - i think they  are struggling too with how do the values of openness for advancing humanity blossom in everything they sponsor without getting sucked into HK-global politics

my friend at american university has found a nice way of connecting worldwide millennials beyond barriers nations set up ; apparently back in wales of 1913 a higher ed course was taught on youth's global affairs - so his work connects that - in november he was at an oxford union debate- by a vote of 2 to 1- youth should not look only to america to provide the lead they need; oddly a wall street genre of the same sort has emerged around the biggest fund manager dalio; and there is still the question is ESG the way to get financiers to debate what investment/society is being compounded by money where; the people i trust most in the esg debate in new york are 1 japanese 2 ,musicians/artistic youth plus a few daring under 35s who have worked themselves into semi-influential positions at places like deutsche bank

I dont know if one of the paragraphs above should have been the main one between the three of us; coming back to jeanne's diary who did zbee most want to amplify what actionable conversations with? and should this conversation be widened to include people like rebecca or is this firstly a question about future of humanoids and robotics and how this connects with all the other tech multipliers which von neumann family is happy to be piloted as AI Hall of Fame if we can find www scouts of whom to nominate

extract biden climate summit april 2021 earth day: biden thank you ..13:13

thank you vice president harris- good morning to

all our colleagues around the world, especially our young people that we're ready to meet ; this moment preserving our planet; it's also about providing a better future for all of us..that's why when people talk about climate i think jobs within our climate: to tap the economic opportunity that climate change presents our workers and our communities especially those too often that have left out and left behind..i'd like to build a critical infrastructure to produce and deploy clean technology ,both those we can harness today and those that will invent tomorrow; i talk to the experts and i see the potential for a more prosperous and equitable future the signs are unmistakable ; the science is undeniable but the cost of inaction keeps mounting. the united states isn't waiting we are resolving to take action not only the our federal government but our cities and our states all across our country small businesses large businesses large corporations; american workers in every field i see an opportunity to create millions of good paying middle-class union jobs i see line workers laying thousands of miles of transmission lines for a clean modern resilient grid; i see workers capping hundreds of thousands of abandoned oil and gas wells that need to be cleaned up and abandoned coal mines that need to be reclaimed putting a stop to the methane leaks and protecting the health of our communities i see auto workers building the next generation of electric vehicles and electricians installing nationwide for five hundred thousand charging stations along our highways i see engine the engineers and the construction workers building new carbon capture and green hydrogen plants to forge cleaner steel and cement and produce clean power i see farmers deploying cutting-edge tools to make soil of our of our heartland the next frontier in carbon innovation by maintaining those investments and putting these people to work the united states sets out on the road to cut greenhouse gases in half in half by the end of this decade that's where we're headed as a nation and that's what we can do; if we take action to build an economy that's not only more prosperous but healthier fair and cleaner for the entire planet you know these steps will set america on a path of net zero emissions economy by no later than 2050; but the truth is america represents less than 15 percent of the world's emissions no nation can solve this crisis on our own as i know you all fully understand all of us all of us and particularly those of us who represent the world's largest economies we have to step up you know those that do take action and make bold investments in their people and clean energy future will win the good jobs of tomorrow and make their economies more resilient and more competitive so let's run that race win more when more sustainable future than we have now overcome the existential crisis of our times we know just how critically important that is because scientists tell us that this is the decisive decade, this is the decade we must make decisions that will avoid the worst consequences of the climate crisis ; we must try to keep the earth's temperature and to an increase of to 1.5 degrees celsius you know the world beyond 1.5 degrees means more frequent and intense fires floods droughts heat waves and hurricanes tearing through communities ripping away lives and livelihoods increasingly dire impacts to our public health it's undeniable nonetheless you know the idea of accelerating and punishing the reality that will come if we don't move we can't resign ourselves to that future we have to take action all of us and this summit is our first step on the road we'll travel together god willing all of us to and through glasgow this november and the u.n climate conference for climate change conference you know to set our world on a path to secure prosperous and sustainable future the health of communities throughout theworld depends on it the well-being of our workers depends on it the strength of our economies depends on it the countries that take decisive action now to create the industries of the future will be the ones that reap the economic benefits of the clean energy boom that's coming you know we're here at this summit to discuss how each of us each country can set higher climate ambitions that will in turn create good-paying jobs advance innovative technologies and help vulnerable countries adapt to climate impacts we have to move we have to move quickly to meet these challenges the steps our countries take between now and glasgow will set the world up for success to protect ivelihoods around the world and keep global warming at a maximum of 1.5 degrees celsius we must get on the path now in order to do that if we do we'll breathe easier literally and figuratively we'll create good jobs here at home for millions of americans and lay a strong foundation for growth for the future and and that that can be your goal as well this is a moral imperative an economic imperative a moment of peril but also a moment of extraordinary possibilities time is short but i believe we can do this and i believe that we will do this thank you for being part of the summit thank you and for the communities that you uh and the commitments you have made in the communities you're from

two questions you might want to ask economists; is a healthy society more capable of growth than an unhealthy one? if we are going to design a trillion times "moore" worldwide technology is it unreasonable to demand 10 times more value in delivering last mile core health of youth through every community?
AFTER FAZLE ABED HAD BUILT HOMES FOR 100000 REFUGEES HE OBSERVED HEALTH AS NECESSARY CONDITION FOR GROWTH & ENDING POVERTY EMPIRE HAD SPUN
*5hUNI1 1972: Fifty year action learning curves: grounded in what started as abed's bottom up relief project building 14000 homes for 100000+ turned into 5huni1 metalab for partnerships in empowering women to share life critical solutions. Until the late 1990s all needed personal grassroots networking since villages had no access to electricity or telecoms grids. Abed had designed in as much sanitation as possible round pit latrines but his first discovery as servant leader was the female half of community had no livelihoods. So it was that hUNI5.1 became the greatest lab for women's networks building a rural nation - see the economist 1977 asian rural keynesianism. Abed as an alumn of Adam Smith's engineering at Glasgow University brought an interconnecting mindset to intellectual capital scaling end poverty solutions while Bangla women energised moral sentiments of human emotional social capital.


5hUNI2 Asked at the start of the 2010s whether 5 decades of knowhow on rural keynesianism could be turned
into a MOOC- Abed said i get massive open online but want C to be Collaboration. Instead of a Mooc certificate run by one university Abed's dream for youth: university partners united alumni networks around civic and village engagement in sustainability societal actions.

hUNI5.3 Climate Bridge Fund In memory of Abed, a 100 million dollar fund aims to unite bangladesh with 9 other nations piloting community solutions to climate

ABED HUNICORNS – COUNTRY & SUSTAINABILITY SPONSORS

Hunicorn- start up network so important to life that its not a business to exit nor a solution to quarrel over politically
Abed changed the world of up to a billion poorest village women by designing hunicorns gravitated originally round the first 5 sdgs 4 livelihood education; 3 health; 2 food security; 1 finance; 5 resilient community

5h1 Abed started by building a resilient community of 14000 village homes over 100000 villagers in bangladesh 1972. At that time his peoples were experiencing 4 immediate life threatening challengers with villagers: cyclone had killed a million people around him in 1970, then war and refugees, famine and the challenge that almost half of adults had never had income-earning livelihoods. In Bangladesh the culture was women in villages without access to electricity grids did not do income paying jobs but raised children. The meta-village of homes turned into a lab for developing solutions which village women could apply. We should also note that borrowing on his previous career as regional ceo for shell oil company, abed designed the 14000 hoome community to integrate with goal 6 sanitation and water as much as rurally possible. For example pit latrines were the way the sanitation challenge was met.

Abed’s solutions have evolved naturally over 50 years ; in alleviating extreme poverty, they could be relevant to any community being challenged by in an extreme way by at least one of the above goal-needs- but it was the 5-fold challenge that explain why abed took a lot of time and testing so “microfranchised” solutions connect where relevant with the interaction of all 5 system goals. Some people associate bangladesh with banking for the poor. Actually the first solutions Abed started to scale across his metavillage and the across all villages focused on critical health and food security challenges. It was only as tens of thousands of village mothers were operating these microfranchises that it made sense to design the financial services they needed. The immediate purpose of the health and food security solutions was to minimise deaths of infants and mothers raising life expectancy from low 40s to mid 60s. When a place’s families have an extra generation we can move from what some expert call least developed economies to something much more humanising across the nation and its boundary relations with other nations.

By microfranchise we mean abed focused on testing solutions until they were replicable across all bangladesh villages in such a way that most or all of the income stayed with the local producer. Moreover Abed took responsibility to redesign national value chains so that markets existed provide the village mother worked hard and within the knowhow designed into the microfranchise. A similar principle applied with school designs in that brac wanted to empower replication so that every school inspired by brac grew children to action learn through happiness, love , confidence as well as peer to peer learning and coaching. UN advocates like Gordon Brown have been heard to say in inspecting thousands of refugee schools, whenever I go into a brac school anywhere in the world it feels different. It is kind of servant leadership celebration that anyone who has directly sought abed’s support aims to live up to through every “hunicorn” network

From 1995 partners came to bangladesh with some of the first technology trials on both mobile phones and solar energy. There were two consequences for Abed; what he blended in design during second half century of empowering bangladesh women to buld sustainable rural nation; what solutions leaders asked him to help extend internationally. In fact, it appears to have been Steve Jobs wife followed rapidly by Jim Kim, Bill Gates and George Soros from the business world who first demanded brac solutions be shared internationally though various government and ngo partnerships prioritised what chaaknges most matched what


Extracts from The Economist's Norman Macrae by hopelessly biased chris.macrae@yahoo.co.uk
Having survived world war 2 as a teenager navigating planes in allied bomber command stationed in modern day Myanmar, Norman was taught in keynes' last class at cambridge that exponentially the world is locked in by the handful of economists whose rules become legislative monopolies; therefore Keynes said it behaves economic journalists to write up stories of how and where people are ending poverty and celebrating a rising middle class. Norman wrote over 3000 leaders which helped turn The Economist from 3rd ranked english weekly into a one of a king global debating chamber. Only in his last 26 years of 40 was he permitted to sign one survey a year; characteristically his first survey celebrated the riso of his war time enemy Japan- its conversion from the only and worst eastern empire to industrialise up to ww2 to the most collaborative nation Asia had ever seen. On reading norman's 1962 survey Consider Japan, JF Kennedy fired off a memo to the head of the fed- what can we all learn from this. Sadly Kennedy was assassinated before washington dc learnt anything from japan's offers to help the Asian two thirds of human rise;

Footnoted are are some of Macrae's surveys on asia; if you find them unconventional more was to come in Macrae's surveys one generation (40 years ahead) which stared in the economist in 1972.

We're All Intrapreneurial Now - The Economist, 17 April 1982


Net Futures - The 2025 Report published 1984/5 in English & American... to 1993 in Swedish

Net Futures - The 2025 Report

Back in 1984/5 , Norman and Chris Macrae wrote "The 2025 Report: a future history of the next 40 years". It was the first book to:

  • provide readers with a brainstorming journey of what people in an internetworking world might do
  • predict that a new economy would emerge with revolutionary new productivity and social benefits enjoyed by all who interacted in a net-connected world

Our 1984 scenario of an internetworking world

Changing communications, and what makes people distant, bossy, etc

Changing national politics

Changing economics

Changing employment

Changing education



Norman's intel had a secret weapon that peculiarly no washingtonian of the second half of the 20th c applied. He had the privilege to meet the greatest maths guy to ever life jon von NNeumann and before Neumann's untimely death made plans to be von neumann's biographer. This made it easy for Norman to believe in eg Gordon Moore alumni to multiply 100 times more technology each decade until 5 dollar computing chips connected by satellites could govern real time autonomous platforms - the great games -humansAI through the 2020s must be about if climate, virus and education are to be sorted out for youth to be the first sdg generation.
The one geographic jigsaw piece of Asia Rising Macrae did not fully understand ahead of time was the miracLe of Bangladesh. Before his death Norman with Glasgow University Adam Smith scholars made plans for 15 youthful journalist visits to Dhaka; this is where everyone who ever friended Norman aims to help writing up the mooc of how sir fazle abed empowered the billion poorest Asian women to build rural Asia

As you look through the table below, consider how the systems transformations empowering billion asian women to communally end poverty over last half century first planted and second integrated hunicorn networks. How many of these have exponentially risen has into multibillion dollar exchanges ( microeconomic sub models). Consider how much so-called developed countries need to transform to sustainable models and livesmatter applying hi-trust solutions that simply struck fazle abed as essential to human dignity and good governance matter. Note how this deep society capital is essential to each UN operational branch: purpose action networks as the 2020s offers humanity the last best chance to celebrate sustainability rising everywhere. We are now 65 years into von neumann’s legacy of blending machine and human intelligence into real time operational platforms accelerated round moore’s law of 100 fold more tech multipliers each decade since the 1960s. Review ai labs hubbing the new tech professonals association at futureoflife.org values the 2020s as the one and only time we will all get to humanise deep data and collaborate through global village mapping of the sort that covid has shown our species most apply technology to. We must now share the courage and love to celebrate borderless interdependence of 7.5 billion beings because that’s how nature’s evolutionary system design spirals.

Translation guide: if you build the 8th most populous place from scratch as bangladesh village women needed to do, the intelligence you need communities to act on first is health goal 3, and food-agriculture security goal 2; however if you are committed to youth being the first sustainability generation ever : the transformation of a developed nation into one where lives and vibrant communities matter everywhere it is likely you will need innovations in education goal 4 and finance

rice

if you trace how this knowhow was shared it seems to have gone from japan to Taiwan to korea; in parallel in 1960 ford and rockefeller foundations helped form the irri 1 regional hub in the philippines; abed networks and chinese villagers became the greatest apprentices in the 1970s;
abed has made it clear-see eg world food prize correspondence that without this revolutionary knowledge village food security would have been impossible; the timing was extraordinary for china which was choosing what first company licences to authorise in 1976 and included villagers food business in this legislation; at start of 21st century when abed was asked what knowledge africans could most gain from, he was stunned to see the green revolution had never come to africa and borlaug veggie sciences has become a core focus of brac international partners in africa.

through 1960s millions of chinese, and south asians were dying of famine every year; as this economist survey later reported rice could save the day wherever local villagers emulated japanese knowledge which in turn had come the green revolutionary american borlaug

Abed's 1970s community dynamic of rural keynesianism led to many collaborations with tropical regions of china which had similar girl empowerment needs and was delighted to learn OR*hUNI3.1
*hUN13.1 Oral Rehydration nets- solution for saving more than half of infants dying from diarrhea - soon unicefs james gran partner of or
*hUNI3.2 grant asked if he could help abed with another project- vaccinate the nation was the replt: grant organisaed gov and brac do half each
*hUNI3.3 as abed delivered or across the nation, he started first health microfranchise -village women sold door-to-door 10 most basic non prescription medicines- para-over 100000 para-health workers made a living from each doing a weekly round of 300 households - over time they became trusted for further advice where to get vaccinated and help spot eg infectious diseases
*hUNI2.1 borlaug rice science enables customisation to small village farms- the microfranchise integral to ending starvation- major partners sharing rice knowhow japan, irri philippines co-funded by japan, china
*hUNI1.2 within its first decade with hundreds of thousands of villagers operating microfranchise, designing financial serices for them became brac microfinance+
*hUNI1.1 by now Abed partnerships were on the way to a transformation in aid: bottom up microfranchises instead of trickle down aid; where grant made to brac. direct knowhow transfer enables grantee to see local results and enjoy co-branding as lead sustainability sponsor
