I have been asked to help facilitate the Microfinance Global Summit in Manila next October – 1000 people – focused on the daunting goal of Ending Extreme Poverty by 2030. This will be a type of Global Research Assembly which is consciously intending to “catalyze a multi-sectorial movement to End Poverty. This is all building on the amazing shift in the past 15 years as one billion citizens of the planet have been lifted about the desperate level of earning $1.25 per day. Much of this lifting force has been provided by the surging economies of Brazil, China and India. The hitch in this advance is that the industrial base of the current development has encouraged the rush to urban jobs and life styles…which is not necessarily sustainable and clearly not environmentally friendly. So celebrate softly as we all rethink more long-term approaches that will sustain communities and planet earth. Anyone want to travel to the Philippines in October?

You may already be doing this…but I was thinking of “from this day forward” all of us who are designing and facilitating events around the world could also be building the “current archives”. So with a few common formats in which to document our events we could do a tip of the iceberg description to be indexed and then reference a summary document from each event that we do. The ToP Network has occasionally used a “Case-Story” reporting format (Jane Stallman’s design, perhaps others) for this purpose, but we are usually moving on to the next gig and never really take the time to do a one-page summary etc. (but we could!)</span><o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'>Let’s talk, I will be coming to Green 4750 in a couple of weeks…looking forward to spending a couple of days with the archives team.
