 reality's maths of trust-flow and purpose

mit workshop on 20 years of research on this

issues which may not go down well in top academia are the maths is almost too simple  --- the wicked problem is framing 

POP
??how everyone starting with those representing those with the least but the most critical need - can look for and action purposeful trust flow especially in what i call  markets that need to be freed as the social world trade sectors - in which father and i would argue (1985 book you have) experiential learning married to give directly apps or open collab hacks is the new economy (10 times more jobs rich than extracting everyone to death)

so when i first spent a year on the web in 1995 i manually hosted organisation creativity network - consensus was people need to get smarter at questioning not rush to claim they have the perfect answers to rule in standardised tests instead of value contextual diversity

I am a bit wary - the only time i gave a lecture at harvard university - to the co-founder of the company and then harvard department head of mass media,  i had mostly worked for most of prior 15 years the end verdict was chris you may be right but there would never be any research funds for that - please go away- fortunately i see mit as potentially the opposite space to harvard just across the river that they are 

- the really wicked problem but i dont trust a maths rush to it in a university- i mean all the great maths of 20th c were on their own not doing research specified by bureaucrats contracts - how do you end risk compounding at boundaries caused by the biggest professions exponentially externalising/separating their clients system responsibilities - sadly the constitution of the European Union is worst in the world for managing this innovation

boundaries pose the greatest maths error possible in a world now more connected than separated  -back in 1995 the only business school head i could find who was happy with my thinking was david weir - not sure if he is still online; by around 2004 i was hoping to be the maths guy for pauls global reconciliation network but that fell through too -this time i certainly wont try explicitly to be the maths guy for pope francis- 

it seems i have a lot of falling through to do in my life -not quite sure if I deserve all the boos i get but then i appreciate harrison owen view that sustaining really big innovation involves talking people especially the most arrogant high up and those suffering most from their folly grandeurs who are at war with each other through the same conflict barrier simultaneously- this live skill i will never have- if amy eventually finds the right bosses or empowers of her i would guess she will have facilitatability in diamonds so to speak if anyone her age can

all i can probably explain why qualitative framing is important from maps i made in the 1980s of what societies most wanted from world's biggest new product developers using mit express software -ultimately we used lot of quantitatve tools but ceo.boardroom leaders only wanted to play with simple maps and ultimately qualitative

i would also say that sir fazle abed - founder of the biggest and most collaborative ngo is my number 1 operational execution trust benchmark - his bon mots small may be beautiful but in ending poverty in bangladesh large scale open replicability (the 3Es) is absolutely essential

my reframing starts with idea of deep gravitational purpose  -get it deep and can attract hi-trust as big as purpose is needed round the world

- if you serve/flow that trust through local communal ways to replicate solutions anywhere in analagous need

some thinking necessary to see if the maths has a proof why open space is the world most collaborative mediation network for happy young sustainability millennials able to work 20 hours a day when so called

1 if our friends can identify exactly who in rome is most interested in refugees- RANGA what is the first question yazmi as world number 1 refugee livelihood channel wants asked ? is ot who has budgets or can influence budget decision-makers if they believe in idea that every refugee should have a tablet - i need very simple question because every conversation needs sales pitch in italian and spanish

possible leads since bernardo was happy to nominate samara as a premio sciacca prizewinner , amy already knows the italian youth ambassador for thie network- in fact our whole central park south bootcamp  met him the day when flu prevented you from joining in- so once he understands the question we can also present that to central park south and they can tell us who in un might be interested - they have unhabitat people om secondment in geneva which i believe is where UNHCR is

as well as premio sciacca the main conclusion of last months nobel peace summit organised by rome was we call on governments to all transfer budgets to refugees- so we can work out how to talk to roman people there- the peace laureate summit share headquarters with green club of rome- amys current internship is with the leading green tv channel -at minimum  we can start up a conscious capitalism rome chapter and get them hosting meeting on green and refugee- and share ideas with conscious capitalosm dc

rome also has all un food agencies- while I am not sure how they fit in to your 2 main channels i can ask rome to start thinking about that

2 can we have this yazmi dialogue between silver spring and dubai specifically on what tricks we know about empowered language teaching for immigrants-
king and amy know the american world's leading expert in language empowering refugees Zara

FAST TRACK GERMAN
I assume we should show any yazmi best features that can be used for language teaching in designing fast way to speak germa- since amy youth world's leading ex\pert in fast learning german

for example are we saying that we can quickly develop 20 hours of audio on speaking german- which  anyone with tablet could both practice live but also have programmed on to the refugee tablet once they got out of range or could web download once they are in germany

while you are live in range of yazmi language teaching are there any special smart learning tricks dubai already uses in maximing your medium

3 amys open space friends are maximally connecting with brooklyns first exchange project in africa which goes live january 28 in nairobi- we intend to have helped the nairobi team so  that they introduce us to everyone relevant in ihub and ushahidi crowdmapping

these could raise 2 questions: how do we do a first hackathon between yazmni silver spring and dubai and all africa networks of ihub i imagone we particularly want to ask ihub lenya who are their main partner hubs in addis- and do they already have projects that are mainly invested in by chinese  -also when noah asks what is a hackathon - thiis is a seminal bookmark winners of the first hackathon for refugees http://talkingpeacefestival.org/peacehack-2015-international-alerts-first-international-hackathon-series-announces-its-winners/
including inner: Safegees
Safegees is a mobile and web application that allows refugees to privately and, in a secure manner, geolocate people in their contact network. The app also gives you ‘points of interest’ tailored to refugees; these points of interest are provided by (vetted) NGOs working on the ground, who can upload the information through a web form. There is a strong emphasis on ensuring all data is secure. The app needs internet connection for some functions, but once basic information is loaded on your phone, it can also work offline. Organisations could also have access to anonymised data on the movement of users registered in the app as a way of seeing how the flow of refugees is changing on a minute-by-minute basis.The winners received two all expenses paid tickets to the Build Peace 2016 conference in Zurich.
while these may seem loke small ideas the point has always been why dont elearning and hackathons run continuously - the answer because existing education systems are disconnected with job creation -hubworld for teenagers intends to replace schools homework completely if need be -chat to jonathan about that
how do we research what crowdmapping projects coordinated with kenyas software movement (africa's leading open source language) are already being done with refugees

the point to note is that kenya is often called africas silicon valley precisely because usahahidi and ihub alumni are in the middle of everything african coders for africa build and of course they pull in google afriica where necessary - at one time one of the fobnders of ihub was headhunted to lead strategy for google africa -there's a very small group of africans who have seen almost every mobile leapfrogging - i think amy and brookyns friends jose and erasmus can help identify these- the other person who can especially since all cashless banking models from mpesa on are coded by the same group is naila- now i am not uptodate on how Yazmi ruto www.joywo.org  partnership with nao;a goes - but the point is once we have some of the answers to this mail a joint approach to naila needs to be made combing kings interests, your interests and coders interests including kiehl and tross (including her remit all across the latin and central  americas)


4 I am spending the last week of january at MIT on a project led by our friend  John Kiehl who is also in the middle of the michael moore movie and most relevant un sustaibability goal media - I am not quite sure what the question to ask wizards of apps is - is it just what apps can you imagine refugees need most ; or is it how do we train refugees to be coders of apps of what

4a if we can get some foot in door at mit then brooklyns main speaker in march has access to linking in all west coast coders around berkeley

and all of 4 can connect with app wizards in ihub


=of course you may have ideas of a different sequence of questions that these various groups can start linking in with each other- what i need to know dr ranga is if you still want to make priority presentations in new york to our 2 first brainstorming cluibs - at brooklyn led by amys best friend dean rolle; and at central park south hosted by amys friend dianne davies whose connections with the un are unlikely anyone elses

I actually need to talk to dean rolle tofay on some other issues -consequently urgency in sending this mail

cheers chris
