compare other WRJ here - soros is america's top 2 philantropist along with giving fund of gates/buffett etc...AS FAR AS I CAN SEE
Soros foundations are a case uniquely worth because they have never suffered from one of the ailments of not for profit world which like government seems to absolve itself from the discipline of positive cashflow - see next right;
very best cases of soros:
**south africa seeding fight against apartheid-see far right
**global fund helping jim/kim /farmer in middle of global fund early 2000 -see mid right and apparently its sad ending feb 2022 with death of paul farmer following covid and death of fazle abed leaving jim kim in boston in his mid 60s with pih.org (haiti rwanda) but only a charity ,model? 
**finding bangladesh women empowerment second time -ie partnerships with fazle abed finding bangladesh first time-more middle right
** the huge impact of being first to partner poorest villagers with mobile phones (below 1995 on)
**the complicated partnership with gorbachev -middle 
**the call to unite graduates around the world who want to collaborate across alumni groups in their race to be the sustainability not the extinction generation
what I love about all these things - they were worth a try -apparently soros didn't blame anyone as long as they tried their best with his money
Entrepreneurs advancing the human lot (according to 150 yeras of diaries the economist 1843-1990 - has happened when a founder of a solution people need has deigned a positive cash flow model round the purpose of maximising peoples affordable access. So if not for profits are about systems that fail to help communities entrepreneurially start up positive cash flow models to resolve communities sdg needs I am unsure what the purpose is.WHITES WRONGS -even if you are a daispora sct- the curse of being a white european (less than one eight of the human race) is we did slave trade, genocide across the new world as well as gun fights in which texas became the operating system of the usa (oil power, enough gun power to force mexicans to sell the west coast) even as dc apparently mediated over laws, colonisation -britannia having first access to engines but being repelled by usa doubled up under the worst corporation the world has ever seen colo0nising south asia and closing china to world trade for over a century as the chinese sensibly declined to accept opium as a currency- the consequ7nece of the human wrongs was world war 2 - the un was birthed around 3 challenges - seeing the advanced economies kick start; outlasting stalin -sadly one od the 2 maddest men to rule would win world war 2 as they were on opposite sides; helping the 75% of people that white empires had left out of access to engineering as they grew their places (with independence); depending how you look at history 1945-1989 - human development did some amazingly positive things to the death of jf kennedy; it stopped doing anything but outlast the cold war; from the early 1980s as it was clear ussr was not sustainable soros did the decent thing of trying to help gorbachev and when he lost inside russia started the open society foundation with him and backed parallel networks situated on the boundary between rome and the vatican- particularly gorbachev chairing of the nobel peace laureate summit which shared the same secretariat as the green club of romeI am aware that soros and jim kim and paul farmer found each other at start of 21st century; this was very good because between them bush's only totally positive impact emerged : global fund - by clarifying overlapping needs in fighting tb and aids global progress was made in combatting both of these diseases - the very best of this progress was wherever kim-farmer-soros also found brilliant bottom up health service networks; in many ways these continued what unicef's james grant had done; when they all found sir fazle abed (bangladesh woemn empowerment) as did bill gates this was one of the great leaps forward for humanity; peculiarly soros had also hugely helped bangladesh around 1995 though i have never seen his foundation take full credit for being first to invest in mobile ends poverty (help needed to understand)....I was at argubalky sors' hapiest moment reurning to his ciry of birth 2012- celebarting sir fazle abed as 20th open society laureate; paul farmer gace a side lecture; ceu university looked lik e a becaon for freedom - within a year of two budapest was flooded by refugees; the government5 turned right and against soros; eu joined in making it impossible for the university to keep its students both safe and free of speech - requiring a move to vienna whcich has ben slowed down by covid

for me this is also a tragedy ; maybe i was starry eyed but my first and only visit to budapest saw the convergence of 3 great heroes - fazle abed whose empowerment has reached billion poorest village women; the birth place and education system that grew von neumann - whose tech advances we have been compounding 100 fold since 1955; and soros... ..
Can anyone help me i understand soros first foundation intervention supported south african black youth end apartheid ; clearly that was on the correct side of history; as far as I know soros only claims a small part of that but it convinced him he could do good;

hello - could you tell me -is there one person who knows adam smiths work in way that aligns with your goals- my father norman macrae of the economist and professor skinner then the recognised schoiar at glasgow u died within months of each other- i ask because in 2008 when muhammad yunus gave 250th celebration of moral sentiments - tom hunter was on record for supporting him as youth sdg/mdg advocate- after 15 visits to bangladesh we found that sir fazle abed www.fazleabed.com of brac played a deeper systemic partnering role and wanted his legacy to be brac university-vincent chang https://www.bracu.ac.bd/about/people/professor-vincent-chang-phd vice chancellor of brac university wants to reach out to nationally recognised scholars of adam smith this summer before cop26 where brac university is south asia's core partner with ban ki-moon www.gca.org and other scholars trying to empower students to be the sdg generation-if there is somone at thf who would like me to make intro to vincent chang please say- my family comprises 4 generations of diaspora scots who try to mediate end povert from east to west- in our view nobody rivals tom hunter good sense of what scotlands youth needs in these critical times of collapsing systems - virus, climate, economic union, impeachment, nationalism- we are sorry that bangladesh-women empowerment- became a muddle for many scottish  leaders and students-after 15 visits to bangladesh and 15 to china and japan since dad's death  i can recommend vincent chang's sincerity - chris macrae norman macrae foundation washington dc +1 240 316 8157 chris.macrae@yahoo.co.uk

we would love to know - is adam smith a k-12 curriculum anywhere in scotland -we see adam smith as important as eg financial literacy at least for small enterprises and nations who need to choose big neighbours carefully the more so worldwide tech needs to humanise ai in ways that integrate cultural and community diversity

university alumni - some of the lifelong partners of sir fazle abed - on the university side this includes george soros and all the world leading cholera and nutrition experts who started the university around the james grant school of public health main referees of sir fazle work include melinda gates . jim kim, ..

Sir Tom Hunter’s philanthropy The Hunter Foundation (“THF”), has secured renowned broadcaster and natural historian Sir David Attenborough to speak at its latest charity dinner to be held at the National Museum of Scotland, Edinburgh on 18th February 2020. 
The event – which will see Sir David interviewed on stage, followed by several performances from high-profile entertainment acts – is run 100% for charity. 
Previous events hosted by THF have attracted such high-profile speakers as Barack Obama and Michelle Obama and raised over £1 million for good causes. 
Sir David was formerly controller of BBC2 and president of the Royal Society for Nature Conservation. He is the only person to have won BAFTAs for programmes in all of black and white, colour, HD, 3D and 4D formats. 
More recently, Sir David made the headlines in December when he met Greta Thunberg via Skype when she was guest editing the BBC’s Today programme. She said it was watching Sir David’s nature programmes as a child that inspired her to take action on the climate crisis. 
Sir Tom Hunter said: 
“The climate crisis is one of the greatest threats to the future of our society so what better guest to welcome to Scotland than Sir David Attenborough. We look forward to hearing his thoughts on steps we can take as a nation to address the climate emergency, and reflect on his years as a natural historian and broadcaster.”
Malcolm Buchanan, Chair of the Royal Bank of Scotland Board said:
“It is a tremendous privilege to sponsor this event, which will not only raise money for an incredibly worthy cause but further spotlight the need for meaningful action on climate change. As we build a purpose-led bank that champions the communities we serve and helps them to thrive, we are determined to play a deeper role for society and help in the transition to a low carbon economy.”
