Its much more important to identify mistakes and find solutions than to indulge in blame games . (One thing if some forces are still profiting from one of these broken systems beware they may block you however urgent the solution) If you are secure with what mistakes most impacted you and yours you may want to jump to web3 metaverse design maximising youth opportunities and thise teachers who want youth to achieve what they could not <a href="http://www.bcmrace.com" target="_blank">- see www.bcmrace.com</a></p><p>When we write 2025 report in 1984 we expected webs 9person nal computing networks) to appear in 1990 and we also explored the hypothesis that webs would be designed around win-win action learning networks (eg sharing life critical knowhow) as a top priority. Although webs started as learning spaces, commerce took over far faster than we expoected ; wirse learning webs were not identifiable separately from transcaction webs so they fell out of every search)</p><p>Its worth being claar things could have gone either way- cluetrian.com issued a 90 point declaration on more transparent marketing and customer focus but this was not what web1 became designed to do; in pleacse that had been previously cut of feg new zealand some communities did explore 10 years of applying web only to schools - the book which about 1000 new zealand families used became a 10 million family best seller in china. So China and new Zealand became the only places where web1 truly helped youth develop; and what was to come was mobile devices replacing computer laptops but far more than that mobile devises shared data for every gps and being on the planet. A few huge organsiations gained from this amking most of our communities ever less sustainable</p><p>IN MORE DETAIL</p><p>By 2008 several countries were reportiung to us that at least half of youth at whatever stage they left the educatiin system would not have have jobs waiting for them. Big permanent employing organsaitions were of a past era. What was particulary unfair about this situation was systems that went on ending education life with examinations where the last year ir two needed to be spent in maximising a persinns network andapprenticing. This unfairness doubled up where thise going through coleges alsi found themselves in large debt.</p><p><br /></p><p>By the time girdon btwon hosted his education commissio0n at the un after the first year of sustainability goals the situation was worse. Some national leaders we are making many youth unemployable- we are not giving them 21st C skills; we are training them for jobs trobots can do.</p><p><br /></p><p>Let us be quite clear : look around the world at how much local chalenges exist- there is more work for youth to do than ever. The mismatch is in finacing local lasdt mile service jobs and in skills being taught.</p><p><br /></p><p>The bigegst sadness of ours compasred with our expectations back in 1984 is by now in advanced countries every youth could have theoir own skils dashboard and their own persinal bit system matching what they need to learn next to qualify for hwat work. It is in oiur review absurd than an adcanced country like usa left it mainly to one charity khan academy to digitalise learning until the pandemic. A smooth tranbsition of blended learning from 1990 to 2020 could have helped youth lives be very different. In many ways the failure of advnaced countries to open source best trainers and student centric learning devices penalises lless developed countries even more.</p><p>If you look around there are now quite a long list of missing curricula - south afrricas mandeka viryally free university which operated for abouyt 14 yeras foud that the most relevant undergraduate coy=usres had simplified versions that were vitalk for aberage student in south africa who was leaving edu sf=ystem age 14.

His expertise was borne out of his experiences as a shareholder, board chairman and a member of over a dozen corporations across multi-industries such as power, agriculture, mining, banking, hospitality, real estate, and investment.<br /><br />Mr. Dominguez was appointed as Cabinet Secretary thrice: as Secretary of Environment and Natural Resources (1986-1987), Secretary of Agriculture (1987-1989), and currently as Secretary of Finance since 2016.<br /><br />Under his leadership, the Department of Finance (DOF) was able to draft and introduce to the Congress the first of a series of the Duterte administration’s proposed tax reform packages known as the Tax Reform for Acceleration and Inclusion (TRAIN) Act less than 90 days from the time he assumed the Cabinet portfolio in July 2016. President Rodrigo Roa Duterte signed into law the TRAIN Act on December 19, 2017. This was followed by other successes in the legislature—such as the passage of the Tax Amnesty Act, the Tobacco Tax Reform Law, a new Sin Tax Reform Law which raised excise taxes on alcohol and electronic cigarettes, and the Corporate Recovery and Tax Incentives for Enterprises (CREATE) Act.<br /><br />On his watch, the Philippines’ key revenue agencies—the Bureaus of Internal Revenue(BIR) and of Customs (BOC) also continue to achieve strong revenue growth rates. It was also under his leadership that the BIR was able to secure its largest tax settlement ever— amounting to about $600 million—from a single taxpayer in Philippine history.<br /></p></div></div></div></div><div class="Gap_gap20__1xsqF" style="height: 20px;"></div></div><div><div class="Gap_gap10__2L_e0" style="height: 10px;"></div><div class="MuiGrid-root MuiGrid-container MuiGrid-align-items-xs-flex-start" style="align-items: flex-start; box-sizing: border-box; display: flex; flex-wrap: wrap; width: 409.375px;"><div class="MuiGrid-root MuiGrid-item MuiGrid-grid-xs-true" style="box-sizing: border-box; flex-basis: 0px; flex-grow: 1; margin: 0px; max-width: 100%;"><div class="MuiGrid-root MuiGrid-container MuiGrid-wrap-xs-nowrap MuiGrid-align-items-xs-flex-start" style="align-items: flex-start; box-sizing: border-box; display: flex; flex-wrap: nowrap; width: 409.375px;"><div class="MuiGrid-root Contact_photo__2wil- MuiGrid-item" style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; padding-right: 10px; position: relative;"><div class="MuiAvatar-root MuiAvatar-circle Avatar_root__24R3k Avatar_size60__94GeJ" style="align-items: center; background-color: var(--white-color1); border-radius: 50%; color: var(--grey-color); display: flex; flex-shrink: 0; font-family: Roboto, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 1.25rem; height: 60px; justify-content: center; line-height: 1; overflow: hidden; position: relative; user-select: none; width: 60px;"><img alt="Mr. Ken O’Flaherty" class="MuiAvatar-img" src="https://az659834.vo.msecnd.net/eventsairaueprod/production-onair1c-public/206f5beb436b4bdb8535e06052dd5b51" style="color: transparent; height: 59.974px; object-fit: cover; text-align: center; text-indent: 10000px; width: 59.974px;" /></div></div><div class="MuiGrid-root Contact_contact__1YEK2 MuiGrid-item MuiGrid-grid-xs-true" style="box-sizing: border-box; flex-basis: 0px; flex-grow: 1; margin: 0px; max-width: 100%; padding-top: 5px;"><p class="Typography_medium16__Kgo6Q Typography_darkColor__zo7Wv Contact_displayName__1qERb" style="color: var(--dark-blue-color1); font-size: 16px; line-height: 20px; margin: 0px;">Mr. Ken O’Flaherty</p><p class="Typography_regular12__3CVpA Typography_primaryColor__SrGZE" style="color: var(--grey-text-color); font-size: 12px; line-height: 15px; margin: 0px;">Regional Ambassador of Asia-Pacific and South Asia, COP26</p><p class="Typography_regular14__21qcV Typography_primaryColor__SrGZE SessionInfo_bio__pkx1D" style="color: var(--grey-text-color); font-size: 14px; font-style: italic; line-height: 20px; margin: 0px; overflow-wrap: anywhere;">Ken O’Flaherty is the COP26 Regional Ambassador for the Asia-Pacific region.

Colonisers economic models were geared to advance the empire's home capitalists not sustain earth's global villages.

There were rwo exponentially rising win-win opportunities which might free all Asians who had been left out of productivity. </p><p>Rural Keynesianism offered priority innovation networks for rural people connecting alumni of borlaug. Thanks to new engineers like Deming's fusion with oriental consciousness, there was a different way of celebrating engineers and infrastructures capable of building the biggest win-win trading ports ever imagined- map the capital belt road japan-korea-taiwan-hk-singapore and onwards . Ironically the tokyo olympics 1964 offered a reunion space for Asia's old colonisers uk, dutch, japan but usa president was missing from the interpersonal dinner paerty even as the <a href="https://swampland.time.com/2012/07/27/a-brief-history-of-u-s-presidents-and-the-olympics/slide/lyndon-b-johnson/" target="_blank">world's first satellite broadcasts</a> change the purpose of superstardom.</p><p>You could say these offered systemic transformations of IR0*IR1*IR2 -agriculture, powers of energy and communications. One of The Economist Journalists had met John Von Neumann and became the biographer of a legacy which involved questioning the future apps of 100 times more analytic technology every decade through 1960s to 2020s planted around TWIN AI labs in Stanford and MIT Boston. Soon Stanford alumni were proclaiming Moore Laws and the world's first regional lab of back from the future silicon valley. If these 360 degree force multipliers could be integrated- imagine the entrepreneurial revolution of every community being a thriving space for next girls and boys to be born into.</p><p>WILL MORAL MEDIATION EVER BE FOUND AGAIN </p><p> In 1962 President Kennedy recognised the possibilities of Japan's new economic model for Asia Rising - could America promote interdependence and help youth celebrate extraordinary change goals every decade the way the space race had branded the 1960s. Then Kennedy and Medgar Evers were assassinated. What happened next needs open questioning from every national viewpoing and since scots who have the longest worldwide action learning curve with machines are not recogbised as a nation - can we help to be true and fair mediators. The Economist became the world's first viewspaper by continuing to severely examine big-leaders everywhere - could these new economic models be pathways to helping every next child born thrive in the most remarkable era of human transformation , and how do we prevent the other systems possibility social-sci storytellers such as hg wells and george orwell warned as probable.</p><p>The road to celebrating 260 years of human and machine power and intel converges on www.xglagow.com cop26 - diverse Environmental-Social-Governance clues can be brought from every gps on the planet including celebrations of www.japanthanks.com and the platform uniting billion poorest women www.abedmooc.com</p><p>==========================================</p><p>scots chronology of a non-nation from 1700s</p><p> scots are an 80% diaspora nation - as about 20 million folk, we are only 1/400 of the human race and not recognised by the united nations, the european union or any of the big political clubs that noise over global media- no worries the proof in the pudding of human advancement is in the communal doing and networking!</p><p>our exclusion from world affairs started ironically when scots lost their life savings to an experiment most of them never knew about- scotland failed as a nation because money was put into trying to build the panama canal in 1700-1710-- <a href="https://www.britishempire.co.uk/maproom/newcaledonia.htm" target="_blank">a canal too far so to speak</a>, especially 50 years before scots invented engines!! </p><p> - failure at colonisation turned scots into unique reporters mapping economies and human goals for over 300 hundred years in ways that value diversity, nature, cooperation the far north is too cold not to value local community and clans, </p><p> as well as the revolution caused by machines being invented at glasgow university 1760 around first engineer james watt and chief mapmaker of youth futures adam smith</p><p>since world war 2 major sources for s<a href="https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/xglasgowcom-scots-vote-species-7-last-chance-mediation-chris-macrae/" target="_blank">cottish learning of sustainable economics include japan, alumni of von neumann, asianwomen</a> especially bangladesh and china- without billion mothers ending extreme poverty in this quarter of the world's population healthy life -let alone climate adaptation at ecop26 - in the 2020s would be far more hopeless - as it look to japan for believing in youth in every way - <a href="http://japanthanks.com">japanthanks.com</a></p><div class="slate-resizable-image-embed slate-image-embed__resize-full-width" style="background: rgb(255, 255, 255);

right and when they are wrong, are more powerful than is commonly
understood. Indeed the world is ruled by little else. Practical men, who
believe themselves to be quite exempt from any intellectual influences,
are usually the slaves of some defunct economist. Madmen in authority,
who hear voices in the air are distilling their frenzy from some academic
scribbler of a few years back.

transcript extract 80.40 president arizona state uni, with covid and other www community crises, we are where we are, not only because of politics and capitalism, but at the root of it all is us the universities- we are universally inadequate to what lies ahead in terms of the future of our species and our relationship to our beautiful planet which we are all dependent on -let me outline 5 inadequacies<br />
<br />
1 we are inadequate in terms of our self-awareness- institutions of higher edu nof the net outcome of our design – why do we have business schools that are teaching economic models that are working against our own in sustainability, why do we have a lack of communication between chemists and biologists and economists and engineers and philosophers and historians and everyone else -82:33<br />
inadequate. We are wholly, universally inadequate to<br />
82:38 what lies ahead in terms of the future of our species and our relationship with 82:42<br />
this beautiful planet that we're all dependent on it. Let me outline five<br />
82:47 arguments for that. First, I think that we're inadequate in terms of our<br />
82:52 self-awareness, as an institution of higher education or as institutions of 82:56 higher education, of the net outcome of our design. Why do we have business 83:00 schools teaching economic models that are in fact working against our own 83:06 sustainability? Why do we have a lack of communication between chemists 83:13and biologists and economists and engineers and philosophers and 83:18 historians and everyone else who sit inside university environments arguing 83:24 with each other in ways that are not just about intellectual development but 83:28 are in some ways inane? And so we have never thought ourselves, 83:35 we've never been adequately focused on our own self-awareness to understand 83:41<br />
that in fact our highly disciplinary design, as Jeff Sachs indicated, our<br />
83:46 highly structured way of doing things, our way in which theories evolve, our 83:50 ways in which faculty are recognized, the ways in which knowledge is advanced, the 83:55 net outcome of all of that is exactly where we are in terms of a non- sustainable trajectory,83:59 the non-sustainable trajectory that we're on is 84:03 a product of us. Point number one. Point number two: that same university 84:10 enterprise, that same higher education enterprise, is inadequate in terms 84:15 of its production of systems-level tools. We're an observer. We're obsessed with 84:22<br />
reductionism. We're obsessed with the belief that somehow if we can only<br />
84:26 understand everything down to the atomic scale, if we could only understand 84:31 everything at the genetic and sub-genetic mechanism, that somehow we would 84:37 be able to find the solution to all things. And so the answer is, no,84:41 reductionism is not the method by which we will gain an understanding of the 84:46 interconnectedness of the systems of the planet and the role of humans. It's only 84:50 through our ability to emerge systems-level thinking of equal 84:55 intellectual stature and of equal intellectual value. Third, our 85:01 universities and our higher education systems in the United States and in 85:05 other parts of the world are completely inadequate in terms of their 85:08 intellectual diversification, their cultural diversification, their socioeconomic diversification,85:13 their lack of recognition of indigenous cultures and<br />
85:18 indigenous knowledge, the dismissal of entire cultural paradigms, all around 85:26 this notion of somehow there being one path and one trajectory and one route 85:31 forward. Well, there isn't. And this lack of diversification, lack of women in 85:37 science, technology, engineering, and math, lack of cultural diversification at 85:43 universities which actually is accelerating not decelerating. That 85:47 lack of diversification is accelerating if you look around the world, is in fact 85:52 limiting our overall intellectual contribution. We have a narrower and 85:57<br />
narrower intellectual contribution ,not a broader and broader intellectual<br />
86:01 contribution. So that's the third factor that I think is a key part of the design 86:06 limits. I think forth, and I would probably rank 86:10 this actually first, universities really don't care as institutions about much of<br />
86:14 anything. They care about bringing in faculty. They care about hiring faculty.86:19They care about having students. They care about their budgets. They care about 86:23 arguing with the government to get more money. But they don't really care 86:26 about sustainable outcomes as an institution. They do not take activist 86:32 positions, intellectual activist positions, as Jeff has built his career 86:36 around, and some of the rest of us have been fighting for decades. We just 86:40 sit back and say, "Well, we did what we could do. We educated the people we could 86:43 educate. We put out the theories that we could put out, and<br />
86:46 we're really sorry that the politicians are too stupid or or too 86:51<br />
lazy or businesses are too greedy or too selfish." And so this notion of not taking 86:57 some sense of responsibility, we don't realize that it is in fact our own lack 87:03 of transdisciplinary capability, our own lack of adequate, our own lack of 87:09 diversification. It's our own lack of systems-level thinking, it's our own 87:13 obsession with reductionism that actually has brought us to this point. So 87:18 when we look out and we're concerned about rapidly rising CO2 levels or we're 87:21 concerned about the overwhelming human consumption, and a manifestly negative<br />
87:28 overwhelming consumption of fresh water, or the elimination of the entire fishing 87:33 stock or conservation disruptions on a global 87:37<br />
scale of geological time, we don't realize that that we're responsible for<br />
87:43 that. If you take response—if you know you've contributed to something and it's not87:47going well, if you're a responsible person or a responsible institution, you 87:51 change what you're doing. We don't have much change in what we're doing.87:54 Fifth on my list is, universities are archaic, at least in the European model, 88:01 archaic, slow, non-adaptable, non-technologically sophisticated 88:05 institutions. We're not moving at the speed of climate change. We're not moving<br />
88:11at the speed of complexity, of complexification. We're too slow. We have 88:17no sense of time. We might argue about something for 15 years and in the same 88:22 15 years the Ross Ice Shelf cracked off of Antarctica and led to some 88:27 massive change in the in the ocean circulation cycle and thus impacting 88:34 climate etcetera, etcetera. So the five points here: inadequate self-awareness,88:38 inadequate emergence of systems-level thinking, wholly inadequate 88:42 diversification of the university itself, no sense of moral duty or moral 88:46responsibility as institutions, and inadequate speed and adaptability. If we 88:51 don't change those things, there's not going to be any climate adaptation or 88:55 climate change. There's not going to be movement back towards a sustainable 88:59<br />
trajectory because we're not producing the people, the ideas, the tools, the<br />
89:04 mechanisms, the devices, the theories, the assumptions—the young students who 89:08 are just presenting, they get this. They understand that they enter a university 89:12 which is in fact an archaic institution,incapable of having self-awareness 89:17 relative to where we're headed. So what are we doing at my institution arizona state, we've 89:22 done everything and then some, and still it's a slow slog. We've built the Global 89:28<br />
Futures Laboratory, the Global Institute of Sustainability. We're<br />
89:31 dramatically lowering our carbon footprint. We have thousands and<br />
89:34 thousands of students. We change the design of engineering. We changed parts 89:38 of the design of our business schools. We built a new school on the Future of 89:41 Innovation and Society, a new School of Sustainability, and we're still moving 89:47 too slow. And so I think the point I'd like to make to 89:50 the audience here is, let's listen to these students. They have a sense, they 89:54 have an awareness, and they are able to see immediately upon entry into our<br />
89:59 bureaucratic institutions that we're inadequate to the assignment and we 90:06 ought to take that as a serious, serious criticism. Now let me tell you 90:09<br />
what's happening right now. So right now, and COVID sort of expresses this, we are 90:14 largely as colleges and universities place-based institutions, driven where we 90:21think that excellence is a function of who we exclude, and this is true all over 90:24 the world, where our structure, our technology, our flexibility, our 90:29<br />
adaptability are completely inadequate. So my message to ministers, to UN leaders,90:35 to SDSN leaders, to higher education leaders, to students, to faculty, is that 90:40 let's shake it up. It is time to shake the foundation of the universities and 90:45 have them raise their hand and say, "Yes. We want to be responsible for the 90:50 climate outcome of our planet, for our species outcome, for the 90:56 sustainability of our species." And to do that we're going to have to change 91:00 everything down to the root. So I think that's about 12 minutes and I'll 91:05 stop there.91:13<br />

We believe that to achieve real progress in implementing the SDGs, we need to catalyze all global citizens around the world, particularly young people and women. By spotlighting youth activism and highlighting individual initiatives taken by Ban Ki-moon Centre scholars and fellows (SDG Micro-Projects), the session seeks to empower young people to become agents of change, to spot problems and find solutions. The concept “SDG Micro-Projects” encourages thinking “glocally” and brings a local focus to achieving the SDGs as the scholars and fellows tackle challenges in their own communities. It should remove hesitations and perceived barriers of anyone who wants to make a difference but doesn’t know where and how to start. The SDG Micro-Project examples will show that it doesn’t take a big organization, budget or endorsement to make a real difference and help make the SDGs reality. The vision of this session is to inspire more young people and women to take action for the SDGs in their communities.</span></p><h2 style="border-bottom-style: initial; border-color: initial; border-image: initial;

<br />
to understand the problem search for how best maths guys grew up in pre-computer age<br />
<br />
my family spent a lot of time studing how von neumann learnt - see our biography<br />
he grew up in early 20th century vienna- living above a parade of shops; most of the kids were home schooled to 12 sharing each others stockcounting chores; sharunf family meals in the tighknit jewish trsdition- johnny was spotted as one of the 12 best numbers guys as a 12 year old in vienna- annuaaly the best 12 year old class would get its own progessional schooling- rasther like sports stars might be apprenticed- before johny went to university he has been coached to make a short list of mathematical challenges at least one of which he would lead the solution of<br />
<br />
america was extraordinarily lucky because a whole group of young graduate central europeans like johny ane einstein wanted to emigrate to somewhere that loved them unlike hitler's ascent through the 1930s- egotististical government leaders dont nurture mathematicians capable of serving humanity<br />
<br />
sadly for johny in usa 1940 he had become world's lmost netwrked mathematician of both nuclear and programable computing- to serve the war effort he spent most of the 1940s on nuclear science which was to lead to his early death 1957<br />
<br />
he got less than a decade to work on the most exciting maths ever- programable computers- whats inreresting is even in 1950 johny wasnt free of gov researxch conracts specifying how he shuold develop computing- so he worked day time on that and through the night on open sourcing computer programing<br />
<br />
the government and his researh university princeton were furious but johny managed to leak all his open source ideas which mainl went nothh of princeton t0o ibm in new york and to boston- johns final months were spent on brain science - ie what would be the challenges of teaching 20th century kids so they humanised machines not the other way round- this lecture series was given to yale- postumously johny's wide delivered the inaufual class in brain science<br />
<br />
-why on earth given such a headstart did maths school trachers not wake up to everything maths teaching could learn from johnny<br />
<br />
fisrst at primary level dontclassroom examine kids telling the how many errors they made - that ruins confidence-help the expeientially learn<br />
dont ever ever let governments over specify research contracts for mathematicians<br />
<br />
remember all this was critical in the era up to 1970 when the slide rule wy typically the smartest numbers tool avialable in classrooms<br />
<br />
how computer science teaching could be invented from 1970 needed to be openly debated not controled by big government and teachers unions who prefer to examine old facts instead of explore what was to beome 99% new to the world knowhow<br />
<br />
fortunate;y enough of johnny's spirit landed at mit - a graduate colege where students are celebrated more for starting up a better for the worl inventionthan being examined as certifiable- something very strange happened at the same time- deming who had become the world's best coach on smart engineers lives matter was banned from consulting by americas auto companies which preferred bossing its workers- deming could only get work in japan- not only did they develop better engines but instead or automakers ruling over how 2000 parts were made each part was subcontracted to a sme netwrk to be best at - this asian model produced not onlly better car engines but the tools needed for bullet trins, container docking- 100 times more efficient than previus dockinh- asain engineering networks sprea to korea and taiwan- the trade made hong kong ang singapore the worlds greatest shipping crossroads- all of asia stated rising- in addition japan became best at manufacturing smart electronic consumer goods - quartz watches, pocket calculators<br />
<br />
intel who was still the world leading silicon chip producer got its largest ever order from a japanese calculator firm- so as not to be over-dependent intel innovated the programable computing chip- as this happened in 1965 gordo moore issued a challenge - who'd netwrk around him to multip chipa analytica power over each of the next 6 decades until in the 2020s a dollar chip had as much capacity to analyse as the human brain<br />
<br />
-n this way moore picked up neumanns computing baton- within 7 years so many office spaces were llinking in with moores challenge that the whole region was branded silicon valley- fortunately the only american university specifically founded t celebrate the future of a state's youth - ie stanford - was in the middle of the valley- so although america's k-12 classrooms generally speaking never got beter at helping students love maths america had a stake in determining whjether knowledge machines would be humanised or would be used by governments to big brother the world- better yet the genni was out of the bottle- while n america represents the dreams of 5% of the human race- the third quarter of 20th centiry saw the smarest human ungineering ciastal belt in the world linkin all far east islands anf the korean penisular- remember two thirsds of humans are asians- the age of empires that ended with world war 2 and the start of the un at san francisco opea house 1945 meant asia pacific not atlantic people would be the centre of gravity of whether the maths and maps of the sdg geneartion were found just ahead of time - game on 2020s - while decoupling asia be the most destructive of all of trumps folie granduers as the least mathematical person ever to have had superpower, if universities of the sdg generation are to be distributed across mothers earth in ways that fit with nature's evolution rules its asian youth as the vast majority of the younger half of the world who will just do it - humanise ai link 5g to all sorts of smart devices some controled by humans some being smart city platforms, other collecting rovig drone data as farmers and climate resoltion experts will need<br />
