This Social ABC compass can be used in any Yunus Forum City. It provides collaboration Yunus networks with both a real and virtual space format for postits of upcoming projects
indexed by current project host. Mail us if you want to linkin a city near you using this format. This enables us to contextually
share collaboration news between projects with parallel action learning experiences as well as map how to remnove cross-cultural
or geographical barriers to uniting around Yunus' open source models - notabloy Social ABC.
Briefly Social Action is a model for teens up - commit to at least a 3 person team and a year long focused goal.
Diarise your ups and downs as a team dedicated to innovating social change whilst helping to community build. Decide whether
the productive relationships you have systemised around the goal's demanding purpose provide any knowhow that you might
later seed into a Social Business
Social Business is the Yunus model for guaranteeing that whatever communal win-win-win
purpose a business is founded round, the model is exponentially sustained multiplying more and more value (human as well as
other) empowering the community. A Social Business is governed to be measurable to the following criteria: produces a surplus
every cycle; the surplus is reinvested in sustaining the purpose and the community -thus never extracted to be some external
power's short term speculative gain. Yunus has 30 years experience of designing Social Businesses of every size from local
to global. All his system designs are transparently compounding an end to poverty. By compounding this sustainability goal
over time, Yunus invites 6.5 billion people to map how all other sustainability crises (eg climate, war, illhealth, untrue
media, wasteful education, professions that have deserted hippocratic oaths for global short-term greed) can be
collaboratively resolved by the worldwide generation 1984-2024
Capitalism's Future. Dear Youth & World Entrepreneurs: By communally actioning, hi-trust partnering and interfacing multiple social businesses - eg that responsible knowhow from a world class industry
leader and that with Yunus the world's number 1 base of the Pyramid Colaboration Entrepreneur - humanity can celebrate
a chnage in capitalism. Note who are early buinsess leader joining Yunus - eg Bill Gates.

It
is the endless capability of human beings. It just doesn’t have limits: if human beings can’s solve these (millennial
rights) challenges- what good is human being any way? We are created to solve problems .. not to create problems. Conventional
wisdom tells us very little; conventional wisdom hides conventional blunders; we have to go and hit the blunders and make
whole circle so much bigger so that we create the world we want to live in. Yunus, Oxford 07

2008 Year of Social
ABC & Mapping Future Capitalism to Create a World Without Poverty
I have had the huge privilege of following Dr Yunus on parts of his book tour.
The year began for me with buying 1000 books to form readers clubs with and spending a week in Dhaka where I was most fortunate
to meet Dr Yunus for 3 hours. By January 10 his US book tour was starting and I was sampling 475 books to delegates of London's World EntrepreneurSummit.
On January 22, we were privileged to make half an hour video with Dr Yunus in New York or the day his book hit the best-sellers list.
By February 15 his London booktour was in full swing and we hosted a 30 person luncheon at the RAC St James on Feb 15 and supported
the 700 person public meeting at St James church on the 16th. We now have transatlantic footage of the booktour and plan to
go back to Dhaka in April to make youtubes of the 30 year old and 30000 organization that Dr Yunus and his corkers have built. One
that Bill Clinton says is a benchmark for why the Bangladesh economy is growing
