some reasons for asking:
JP Morgan Listens to Lessons from Kenya Microcredit Jamii Bora
from middle 2008's subprime nightmares, many of us spent a lot of time trying (eg launching journal of social business) to support students understand how the origins of the bangladeshi microcredit movement truly worked but eg in america that has wasted a heck of a lot of energy -evidence eg atlantas goal to involve 10000 hbuc and ther youth at the height of designing networks embedding youth in sustainability goals futures ie this month with all nobel peace laureates and families of ted turner and jimmy carter and martin luther king as locals cheering on the movement -cancelled like the previous peace summit designed to celebrate mandela's heritage out of cape town due to politics between big players
jim kims world bank seems to have adopted direct cash transfer as its system intervention into financing end of poverty but only where this is seen as a way that the world bank can free itself from history of top down chain of nation's biggest banks which it used to have to work through trickling down often next to nowt to empower the the ultra poor; it is said that long before mexico's rotten invention of microcredit ipo it had pioneered valid conditional cash transfers- oddly all the most openly transformative societal cultures of ending poverty can be traced back to late 1960s dialogues in s. america (the curriculum now led by pope francis) with the possible exception of china
possibly berkeley's most impactful ever coders app concerns conditional cash transfer- in any event its the right time to discuss whether this is so given the dynamics going on around the blum centre and the hard landing of clinton university on this student epicentre spring 2016 during a year that political noise across usa will in most cultural respects be full of sound and fury
