clause from their regions view point) but my question would be how can one get to the last day of Argentina G20 and issue
a declaration that builds in all Franscican values in
effect if its the case that Xiamen is China's and the East's current gift to mapping how the sustainability generation wil
happen , the next year will add in much more insights from India and aiib mumbai june 2018 can introduce an adapted

macrae In a declaration, the BRICS(Brazil-Russia-India-China- South Africa) called upon all nations to adopt a comprehensive approach in combating terrorism
including countering radicalisation and blocking terror financing sources. Here is the full text ofXiamen Declaration Xiamen, China, 4
September 2017
1. We, the Leaders of the Federative Republic of Brazil, the Russian
Federation, the Republic of India, the People's Republic of China and the Republic of South Africa, met on 4 September 2017
in Xiamen, China, at the Ninth BRICS Summit. Under the theme "BRICS: Stronger Partnership for a Brighter Future",
we endeavor to build on our achievements already made with a shared vision for future development of BRICS. We also discussed
international and regional issues of common concern and adopted the Xiamen Declaration by consensus.
2. We reiterate that it is the overarching objective and our desire for peace, security, development and cooperation
that brought us together 10 years ago. BRICS countries have since traversed a remarkable journey together on their respective
development paths tailored to their national circumstances, devoted to growing their economies and improving people's livelihoods.
Our committed and concerted efforts have generated a momentum of all-dimensional and multi-layered cooperation fostered by
the previous Leaders' Summits. Upholding development and multilateralism, we are working together for a more just, equitable,
fair, democratic and representative international political and economic order.
(check numbering)
3. Our cooperation since 2006 has fostered the BRICS spirit featuring mutual respect and
understanding, equality, solidarity, openness, inclusiveness and mutually beneficial cooperation, which is our valuable asset
and an inexhaustible source of strength for BRICS cooperation. We have shown respect for the development paths of our respective
choices, and rendered understanding and support to each other's interests. We have upheld equality and solidarity. We have
also embraced openness and inclusiveness, dedicated to forging an open world economy. We have furthered our cooperation with
emerging markets and developing countries (EMDCs). We have worked together for mutually beneficial outcomes and common development,
constantly deepening BRICS practical cooperation which benefits the world at large.
4. We draw satisfaction
from the many fruitful results of our cooperation, including establishing the New Development Bank (NDB) and the Contingent
Reserve Arrangement (CRA), formulating the Strategy for BRICS Economic Partnership, strengthening political and security cooperation
including through Meetings of BRICS High Representatives for Security Issues and Foreign Ministers Meetings, and deepening
the traditional ties of friendship amongst our peoples
5. Recalling our Summits in Ufa and Goa,
we will work together to further enhance BRICS strategic partnership for the welfare of our peoples. We commit ourselves to
build upon the outcomes and consensus of our previous Summits with unwavering conviction, so as to usher in the second golden
decade of BRICS cooperation and solidarity.
6. Believing in the broad development prospects
of our countries and the vast potential of our cooperation, we have full confidence in the future of BRICS. We commit to further
strengthen our cooperation.
-- We will energize our practical cooperation to boost development
of BRICS countries. We will, inter alia, promote exchanges of good practices and experiences on development, and facilitate
market inter-linkages as well as infrastructure and financial integration to achieve interconnected development. We shall
also strive towards broad partnerships with EMDCs, and in this context, we will pursue equal-footed and flexible practices
and initiatives for dialogue and cooperation with non-BRICS countries, including through BRICS Plus cooperation.
-- We will enhance communication and coordination in improving global economic governance to foster a more
just and equitable international economic order. We will work towards enhancement of the voice and representation of BRICS
countries and EMDCs in global economic governance and promote an open, inclusive and balanced economic globalization, thus
contributing towards development of EMDCs and providing strong impetus to redressing North-South development imbalances and
promoting global growth.
-- We will emphasize fairness and justice to safeguard international
and regional peace and stability. We will stand firm in upholding a fair and equitable international order based on the central
role of the United Nations, the purposes and principles enshrined in the Charter of the United Nations and respect for international
law, promoting democracy and the rule of law in international relations, and making joint efforts to address common traditional
and non-traditional security challenges, so as to build a brighter shared future for the global community.
-- We will embrace cultural diversity and promote people-to-people exchanges to garner more popular support for BRICS
cooperation through deepened traditional friendships. We will expand people-to-people exchanges in all dimensions, encourage
all fabrics of the society to participate in BRICS cooperation, promote mutual learning between our cultures and civilizations,
enhance communication and mutual understanding among our peoples and deepen traditional friendships, thus making BRICS partnership
closer to our people's hearts.
BRICS Practical Economic Cooperation 7. We note that against the backdrop of more solid global economic growth, enhanced resilience and
emerging new drivers, BRICS countries continue to play an important role as engines of global growth. Noting the uncertainties
and downside risks that persist, we emphasize the need to be vigilant in guarding against inward-looking policies and tendencies
that are weighing on global growth prospects and market confidence. We call upon all countries to calibrate and communicate
their macroeconomic and structural policies and strengthen policy coordination.
8. We note that practical
economic cooperation has traditionally served as a foundation of BRICS cooperation, notably through implementing the Strategy
for BRICS Economic Partnership and initiatives related to its priority areas such as trade and investment, manufacturing and
minerals processing, infrastructure connectivity, financial integration, science, technology and innovation, and Information
and Communication Technology (ICT) cooperation, among others. We welcome the first report on the implementation of the Strategy
for BRICS Economic Partnership, and the broad package of outcomes delivered by the sectoral ministerial meetings. We commit
to use all policy tools - fiscal, monetary and structural - and adopt innovation-driven development strategies to enhance
resilience and potentials of our economies, so as to contribute to strong, sustainable, balanced and inclusive global growth.
9. Stressing the role of enhanced trade and investment cooperation in unleashing the potential of BRICS economies,
we agree to improve and broaden trade and investment cooperation mechanism and scope, with a view to enhancing BRICS economic
complementarity and diversification in BRICS countries. We welcome the positive outcomes of the 7th BRICS Trade Ministers
Meeting in terms of the cooperative frameworks, roadmaps and outlines on trade and investment facilitation and connectivity
and enhanced policy sharing, information exchange, capacity building, through enhanced joint efforts on trade and investment
facilitation, trade in services, E-commerce, IPR (in synergy with the cooperation activities among BRICS IP authorities),
economic and technical cooperation, SMEs and women economic empowerment. We welcome the setting up of the BRICS E-Port Network
that will operate on a voluntary basis and the establishment of the BRICS E-commerce Working Group. We also welcome China's
initiative to host an International Import Expo in 2018 and encourage our business communities to actively participate in
it.
10. We stress the importance of enhancing BRICS financial cooperation to better serve the
real economy and meet the development needs of BRICS countries. We note the agreement by the finance ministers and central
bank governors on cooperation on Public Private Partnerships (PPP), including through PPP experience exchange and application
of the BRICS Good Practices on PPP Frameworks. We acknowledge the establishment of a temporary task force to conduct technical
discussion on various ways of cooperation, including utilizing existing facilities of the MDBs based on national experiences,
exploring the possibility of establishing a new PPP Project Preparation Fund and other options. We encourage cooperation and
coordination by our accounting standards setters and audit regulators and agree to explore convergence of accounting standards
and continue discussion on cooperation on auditing oversight in the area of bond issuance, so as to lay the groundwork for
bond market connectivity among BRICS countries, with due regard to applicable national legislation and policies. We agree
to promote the development of BRICS Local Currency Bond Markets and jointly establish a BRICS Local Currency Bond Fund, as
a means of contribution to the capital sustainability of financing in BRICS countries, boosting the development of BRICS domestic
and regional bond markets, including by increasing foreign private sector participation, and enhancing financial resilience
of BRICS countries.
11. In order to serve the demand arising from rapid growth of trade and investment
among the BRICS countries, we agree to facilitate financial market integration through promoting the network of financial
institutions and the coverage of financial services within BRICS countries, subject to each country's existing regulatory
framework and WTO obligations, and to ensure greater communication and cooperation between financial sector regulators. We
agree to take an active part in the efforts to implement and improve International Standards on Combating Money Laundering
and the Financing of Terrorism and Proliferation in FATF, including through cooperation among BRICS Heads of Delegation on
AML/CFT, also in the context of the work of BRICS CTWG and by using other platforms and to safeguard integrity of national
financial systems. We agree to communicate closely to enhance currency cooperation, consistent with each central bank's legal
mandate, including through currency swap, local currency settlement, and local currency direct investment, where appropriate,
and to explore more modalities of currency cooperation. We encourage the BRICS Interbank Cooperation Mechanism to continue
playing an important role in supporting BRICS economic and trade cooperation. We commend the progress in concluding the Memoranda
of Understanding among national development banks of BRICS countries on interbank local currency credit line and on interbank
cooperation in relation to credit rating.
12. We highlight the importance of innovation as a key driver
for mid and long term economic growth and global sustainable development. We commit to promote cooperation on science, technology
and innovation (STI) to forge synergy in tapping new growth momentum for our five economies and continue to address the development
challenges we face. We commend the selection of BRICS research and development projects under the BRICS STI Framework Program
and note the launch of the 2nd call for projects. We welcome the BRICS STI Cooperation MOU and support enhanced cooperation
on innovation and entrepreneurship, including by promoting technology transfer and application, cooperation among science
and technology parks and enterprises as well as mobility of researchers, entrepreneurs, professionals and students. We encourage
increased participation of the academia, businesses, civil society and other stakeholders in this process, and support the
promotion of STI investment and cross-border investment through existing funding, institutions and platforms including the
NDB. We agree to continue to work on a cooperation platform for innovation and entrepreneurship and support the implementation
of the BRICS Innovation Cooperation Action Plan 2017-2020.
13. We reaffirm our commitment to BRICS industrial
cooperation, including on industrial capacities and policies, new industrial infrastructure and standards, and among small,
micro and medium-sized enterprises (SMMEs), so as to jointly seize the opportunities brought about by the new industrial revolution
and expedite our respective industrialization processes. We encourage exploring the establishment of BRICS Institute of Future
networks. We will enhance joint BRICS research, development and innovation in ICT including the Internet of Things, Cloud
computing, Big Data, Data Analytics, Nanotechnology, Artificial Intelligence and 5G and their innovative applications to elevate
the level of ICT infrastructure and connectivity in our countries. We will advocate the establishment of internationally applicable
rules for security of ICT infrastructure, data protection and the Internet that can be widely accepted by all parties concerned,
and jointly build a network that is safe and secure. We will increase investment of ICT, recognize the need to further increase
investment in ICT Research and development, unleash the dynamics of innovation in producing goods and services. We encourage
identification and facilitation of partnership between institutes, organizations, enterprises in the implementation of proof
of concepts and pilot projects by leveraging complementary strengths in ICT hardware, software and skills through developing
next generation of innovative solutions in the areas of smart cities, health care and energy efficient device, etc. We support
active collaboration in implementing the BRICS ICT Development Agenda and Action Plan.
14. We reaffirm our commitment
to fully implementing the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. We will also advocate equitable, open, all-round, innovation-driven
and inclusive development, to achieve sustainable development in its three dimensions - economic, social and environmental-
in a balanced and integrated manner. We support the important role of the United Nations, including the High Level Political
Forum on Sustainable Development (HLPF), in coordinating and reviewing global implementation of the 2030 Agenda, and support
the need to reform the UN Development System with a view to enhancing its capability in supporting Member States in implementing
the 2030 Agenda. We urge developed countries to honor their Official Development Assistance commitments in time and in full
and provide more development resources to developing countries.
15. Underlining the strategic
importance of energy to economic development, we commit to strengthen BRICS cooperation on energy. We recognize that sustainable
development, energy access, and energy security are critical to the shared prosperity and future of the planet. We acknowledge
that clean and renewable energy needs to be affordable to all. We will work to foster open, flexible and transparent markets
for energy commodities and technologies. We will work together to promote most effective use of fossil fuels and wider use
of gas, hydro and nuclear power, which will contribute to the transformation toward a low emissions economy, better energy
access, and sustainable development. In this regard, we underline the importance of predictability in accessing technology
and finance for expansion of civil nuclear energy capacity which would contribute to sustainable development in BRICS countries.
We encourage continued dialogue on the establishment of a BRICS Energy Research Cooperation Platform and urge relevant entities
to continue to promote joint research on energy cooperation and energy efficiency.
16. We commit to further
promote green development and low-carbon economy, in the context of sustainable development and poverty eradication, enhance
BRICS cooperation on climate change and expand green financing. We call upon all countries to fully implement the Paris Agreement
adopted under the principles of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) including the principles
of common but differentiated responsibilities and respective capabilities, and urge developed countries to provide financial,
technological and capacity-building support to developing countries to enhance their capability in mitigation and adaptation.
17. Stressing the importance of environmental cooperation to sustainable development of our countries and
the well-being of our peoples, we agree to take concrete actions to advance result-oriented cooperation in such areas as prevention
of air and water pollution, waste management and biodiversity conservation. We recognize the importance of an environmentally
sound technology platform and of improving urban environmental sustainability, and support BRICS joint efforts in this regard.
Brazil, Russia, India and South Africa appreciate and support China's hosting of the meeting of the Conference of the Parties
to the Convention on Biological Diversity in 2020.
18. Noting the fruitful agricultural cooperation
over the past years, we recognize the unique characteristics and complementarity of BRICS countries in agricultural development
and vast cooperation potential in this area. In this connection, we agree to deepen cooperation in the five priority areas
such as food security and nutrition, adaptation of agriculture to climate change, agricultural technology cooperation and
innovation, agricultural trade and investment, and ICT application in agriculture to contribute to stable global agricultural
growth and achievement of Sustainable Development Goals. We welcome the establishment in India of the Coordination Center
of BRICS Agriculture Research Platform, a virtual network which will facilitate addressing these priority areas.
19. We express concern over the challenges faced by the African continent in achieving independent and sustainable
development and in wildlife conservation. We reaffirm our commitment to strengthen cooperation with Africa and help the continent
to address illegal wildlife trade, promote employment, food security, infrastructure development and industrialization including
through connectivity and developmental initiatives and projects. We reaffirm our strong support for African Union's implementation
of its various programs under Agenda 2063 in pursuit of its continental agenda for peace and socio-economic development.
20. Keenly aware of the negative impact of corruption on sustainable development, we support the efforts
to enhance BRICS anti-corruption cooperation. We reaffirm our commitment to intensify dialogue and experience sharing and
support compiling a compendium on fighting corruption in BRICS countries. We further acknowledge that illegal flow of the
proceeds of corruption impairs economic development and financial stability, and support enhanced cooperation in asset recovery.
We support the strengthening of international cooperation against corruption, including through the BRICS Anti-Corruption
Working Group, as well as on matters related to asset recovery and persons sought for corruption. We acknowledge that corruption
including illicit money and financial flows, and ill-gotten wealth stashed in foreign jurisdictions is a global challenge
which may impact negatively on economic growth and sustainable development. We will strive to coordinate our approach in this
regard and encourage a stronger global commitment to prevent and combat corruption on the basis of the United Nations Convention
against Corruption and other relevant international legal instruments.
21. Living in the era of
digital economy, we are ready to use opportunities it provides and address challenges it poses for the global growth. We will
act on the basis of principles of innovation, partnership, synergy, flexibility, open and favorable business environment,
trust and security, protection of consumer rights in order to ensure the conditions for a thriving and dynamic digital economy,
that will foster global economic development and benefit everyone.
22. We appreciate the efforts
and contribution of the BRICS Business Council and Business Forum to strengthening our economic cooperation in infrastructure,
manufacturing, energy, agriculture, financial services, e-commerce, alignment of technical standards and skills development.
We welcome the establishment of a working group on regional aviation within the framework of the Business Council and in this
connection acknowledge the Brazil's proposal on an MOU on regional aviation partnership. We encourage business communities
and associations to actively participate in BRICS cooperation, and give full play to their role as trade and investment facilitation
institutions in promoting mutually beneficial cooperation.
23. We recognize the importance of transformation
that is taking place in the labor market and the opportunities and challenges it brings. We note with satisfaction the progress
in BRICS cooperation with regard to human resources, employment and social security, fostering strong labor market information
systems and networking of BRICS of Labor Research Institutes and BRICS Social Security Cooperation Framework. We welcome the
achievement of a BRICS common position on governance in the future of work and agree to further strengthen exchanges and cooperation
in ensuring full employment, promoting decent work, advancing poverty alleviation and reduction through skills development
and achieving universal and sustainable social security systems.
24. We recognize the importance
of competition protection to ensure the efficient social and economic development of our countries, to stimulate innovative
processes and to provide quality products to our consumers. We note the significance of the interaction between the Competition
Authorities of our countries, in particular, in identifying and suppressing restrictive business practices that are of a transboundary
nature.
25. We note with satisfaction the progress made by Customs Administrations in their cooperation
on trade facilitation, security and enforcement, capacity building and other issues of mutual interest, including through
such mechanisms as BRICS Customs Cooperation Committee and BRICS Customs Working Group. We encourage broadened cooperation
under the guiding principles of mutual sharing of information, mutual recognition of customs control, and mutual assistance
in enforcement so as to boost growth and promote people's welfare. In order to strengthen mutual cooperation in customs matters,
we reaffirm our commitment to finalize BRICS Customs Mutual Assistance Agreement at the earliest.
26. We adhere to the principle of utilizing outer space for peaceful purposes and emphasize the need to strengthen the
international cooperation in space activities in order to use space technologies to respond to global climate change, environmental
protection, disaster prevention and relief and other challenges faced by humankind. 27. Recalling the Saint-Petersburg and
Udaipur Declarations of BRICS Ministers for Disaster Management and the decision to establish a BRICS Joint Taskforce on Disaster
Risk Management, we underline the importance of consistent joint work of emergency services of BRICS countries aimed at building
a safer future by reducing existing disaster risks, including exchange of information on best practices concerning disaster
risk management and cooperation in the field of forecasting and early warning for effective response to natural and human
induced disasters.
28. We note with satisfaction the progress in BRICS cooperation in such fields
as audit, statistics and export credit and agree to further advance cooperation in these fields.
Global Economic
Governance
29. We resolve to foster a global economic governance architecture
that is more effective and reflective of current global economic landscape, increasing the voice and representation of emerging
markets and developing economies. We reaffirm our commitment to conclude the IMF's 15th General Review of Quotas, including
a new quota formula, by the 2019 Spring Meetings and no later than the 2019 Annual Meetings. We will continue to promote the
implementation of the World Bank Group Shareholding Review.
30. We emphasize the importance of an open
and resilient financial system to sustainable growth and development, and agree to better leverage the benefits of capital
flows and manage the risks stemming from excessive cross-border capital flows and fluctuation. The BRICS CRA represents a
milestone of BRICS financial cooperation and development, which also contributes to global financial stability. We welcome
the establishment of the CRA System of Exchange in Macroeconomic Information (SEMI), and the agreement to further strengthen
the research capability of the CRA, and to promote closer cooperation between the IMF and the CRA.
31. We welcome the establishment of the NDB Africa Regional Center launched in South Africa, which is the first regional
office of the Bank. We welcome the setting up of the Project Preparation Fund and the approval of the 2nd batch of projects.
We congratulate the Bank on the ground-breaking of its permanent headquarters building. We stress the significance of infrastructure
connectivity to foster closer economic ties and partnerships among countries. We encourage the NDB to fully leverage its role
and enhance cooperation with multilateral development institutions including the World Bank and the Asian Infrastructure Investment
Bank as well as with the BRICS Business Council, to forge synergy in mobilizing resources and promote infrastructure construction
and sustainable development of BRICS countries.
32. We emphasize the importance of an open and inclusive
world economy enabling all countries and peoples to share in the benefits of globalization. We remain firmly committed to
a rules-based, transparent, non-discriminatory, open and inclusive multilateral trading system as embodied in the WTO. We
reaffirm our commitments to ensure full implementation and enforcement of existing WTO rules and are determined to work together
to further strengthen the WTO. We call for the acceleration of the implementation of the Bali and Nairobi MCM outcomes and
for the WTO ministerial conference to be held this year in Argentina to produce positive outcomes. We will continue to firmly
oppose protectionism. We recommit to our existing pledge for both standstill and rollback of protectionist measures and we
call upon other countries to join us in that commitment.
33. Valuing the G20's continued role as the
premier forum for international economic cooperation, we reiterate our commitments to the implementation of the outcomes of
G20 summits, including the Hamburg Summit and the Hangzhou Summit. We call upon the G20 to further enhance macroeconomic policy
coordination to minimize negative spillovers and external shocks to EMDEs. We agree to enhance coordination and cooperation
under the Argentina Presidency in 2018, with an aim to make the G20 process and outcomes reflect the interests and priorities
of EMDEs.
34. We reaffirm our commitment to achieving a fair and modern global tax system and promoting
a more equitable, pro-growth and efficient international tax environment, including to deepening cooperation on addressing
Base Erosion and Profit Shifting (BEPS), promoting exchange of tax information and improving capacity-building in developing
countries. We will strengthen BRICS tax cooperation to increase BRICS contribution to setting international tax rules and
provide, according to each country's priorities, effective and sustainable technical assistance to other developing countries.
International Peace and Security
35. Cognizant of the profound
changes the world is undergoing and the global security challenges and threats faced by the international community, we commit
to enhance communication and cooperation in international fora on issues concerning international peace and security. We reiterate
our commitment to safeguarding world peace and security and to upholding the basic norms of the international law, and the
purposes and principles of the Charter of the United Nations including sovereign equality and non-interference in other countries'
internal affairs.
36. We welcome the 7th Meeting of the BRICS High Representatives for Security
Issues held on 27-28 July 2017 in Beijing, and commend the meeting for having discussion and deepening our common understanding
on global governance, counter-terrorism, security in the use of ICTs, energy security, major international and regional hotspots
as well as national security and development. We note Brazil's proposal to establish a BRICS Intelligence Forum. We welcome
Chair's report to us on the proceedings of the Meeting and encourage the succeeding chairpersonships to continue this exercise.
We look forward to enhancing practical security cooperation agreed upon in the above areas
37. We welcome China's
hosting of the Meeting of BRICS Ministers of Foreign Affairs/International Relations in Beijing on 18-19 June 2017 at the
initiative of China. Ministers exchanged views on major global political, security, economic and financial issues of common
concern and on strengthening BRICS cooperation. We look forward to the upcoming meeting of Foreign Ministers on the margins
of the UNGA. We welcome South Africa's offer to host the next stand-alone Foreign Ministers Meeting in 2018.
38. We recall that development and security are closely interlinked, mutually reinforcing and key to attaining sustainable
peace. We reiterate our view that the establishment of sustainable peace requires a comprehensive, concerted and determined
approach, based on mutual trust, mutual benefit, equity and cooperation, that addresses the causes of conflicts, including
their political, economic and social dimensions. We condemn unilateral military interventions, economic sanctions and arbitrary
use of unilateral coercive measures in violation of international law and universally recognized norms of international relations.
We emphasize that no country should enhance its security at the expense of the security of others.
39. We reaffirm our commitment to the United Nations as the universal multilateral organization entrusted with the mandate
for maintaining international peace and security, advance global development and to promote and protect human rights.
40. We recall the 2005 World Summit Outcome document and reaffirm the need for a comprehensive reform of
the UN, including its Security Council, with a view to making it more representative, effective and efficient, and to increase
the representation of the developing countries so that it can adequately respond to global challenges. China and Russia reiterate
the importance they attach to the status and role of Brazil, India and South Africa in international affairs and support their
aspiration to play a greater role in the UN.
41. We reiterate that the only lasting solution
to the crisis in Syria is through an inclusive "Syrian-led, Syrian-owned" political process which safeguards the
sovereignty, independence and territorial integrity of Syria, in pursuance of the United Nations Security Council Resolution
2254(2015), and promotes the legitimate aspirations of the Syrian people. We strongly support the Geneva Peace Talks and the
Astana process, and welcome the creation of the de-escalation areas in Syria, which contributed to decrease the levels of
violence and generate positive momentum and conditions for meaningful progress in the peace talks under the auspices of the
UN. We oppose the use of chemical weapons by anyone, for any purpose and under any circumstance.
42. We reiterate the urgent
need for a just, lasting and comprehensive solution of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict in order to achieve peace and stability
in the Middle East on the basis of relevant United Nations resolutions, the Madrid Principles, the Arab Peace Initiative and
previous agreements between the parties through negotiations with a view to creating an independent, viable, territorially
contiguous Palestinian State living side by side in peace and security with Israel. Committed to making greater contribution
to such solution, we express readiness to enhance our contribution towards a just and lasting resolution of the Middle East
conflict and support international efforts to promote peace and stability in the region.
43. We congratulate the
people and Government of Iraq for the recovery of Mosul and for the progress achieved in the fight against terrorism and reaffirm
our commitment to Iraq's sovereignty, territorial integrity and political independence and our support for Iraqi government
and its people. We express our concern over the situation in Yemen and urge all parties to cease hostilities and to resume
negotiations supported by the United Nations. We also call on all parties directly involved in the current diplomatic crisis
in the Gulf region to overcome their dissensions through dialogue and welcome the efforts of Kuwaiti mediation in this regard.
44. We strongly deplore the nuclear test conducted by the DPRK. We express deep concern over the ongoing
tension and prolonged nuclear issue on the Korean Peninsula, and emphasize that it should only be settled through peaceful
means and direct dialogue of all the parties concerned.
45. We firmly support the Joint Comprehensive
Plan of Action (JCPOA) on the Iranian nuclear issue and call upon all relevant parties to comply fully with their obligations
and ensure full and effective implementation of the JCPOA to promote international and regional peace and stability.
46. We commend the efforts of African countries, the African Union and sub-regional organizations in addressing
regional issues and maintaining regional peace and security, and emphasize the importance of collaboration between the United
Nations and the African Union in accordance with the Charter of the United Nations. We support efforts towards comprehensively
resolving the issues in Democratic Republic of Congo, Libya, South Sudan, Somalia, Central Africa Republic and Western Sahara.
47. We strongly condemn terrorist attacks resulting in death to innocent Afghan nationals. There is a need
for immediate cessation of violence. We reaffirm our support to the people of Afghanistan in their efforts to achieve "Afghan-led
and Afghan-owned" peace and national reconciliation, to the ongoing international efforts, including the Moscow Format
of consultations on Afghanistan and "Heart of Asia-Istanbul Process", as well as multimodal connectivity projects
to promote peace and stability, to the fight against terrorism and drug-threat, and to the national reconstruction efforts
by Afghanistan. We support the efforts of the Afghan National Defense and Security Forces in fighting terrorist organizations.
48. We, in this regard, express concern on the security situation in the region and violence caused by the
Taliban, ISIL/DAISH, Al-Qaida and its affiliates including Eastern Turkistan Islamic Movement, Islamic Movement of Uzbekistan,
the Haqqani network, Lashkar-e-Taiba, Jaish-e-Mohammad, TTP and Hizb ut-Tahrir.
49. We deplore all terrorist
attacks worldwide, including attacks in BRICS countries, and condemn terrorism in all its forms and manifestations wherever
committed and by whomsoever and stress that there can be no justification whatsoever for any act of terrorism. We reaffirm
that those responsible for committing, organizing, or supporting terrorist acts must be held accountable. Recalling the primary
leading role and responsibility of states in preventing and countering terrorism, we stress the necessity to develop international
cooperation, in accordance with the principles of international law, including that of sovereign equality of states and non-interference
in their internal affairs. We reaffirm solidarity and resolve in the fight against terrorism, value the 2nd BRICS Counter-Terrorism
Working Group Meeting held in Beijing on 18 May 2017, and agree to strengthen our cooperation.
50. We call upon all nations
to adopt a comprehensive approach in combating terrorism, which should include countering radicalization, recruitment, movement
of terrorists including Foreign Terrorist Fighters, blocking sources of financing terrorism including, for instance, through
organized crime by means of money-laundering, supply of weapons, drug trafficking and other criminal activities, dismantling
terrorist bases, and countering misuse of the Internet including social media by terrorist entities through misuse of the
latest Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs). We are committed to prevent and counter the growing spread of terrorist
narratives, and to tackle all sources, techniques and channels of terrorist financing. We call for swift and effective implementation
of relevant UNSC Resolutions and the FATF International Standards worldwide. We seek to intensify our cooperation in FATF
and FATF-style regional bodies (FSRBs). We recall the responsibility of all States to prevent financing of terrorist networks
and terrorist actions from their territories.
51. We call upon the international community to
establish a genuinely broad international counter-terrorism coalition and support the UN's central coordinating role in this
regard. We stress that the fight against terrorism must be conducted in accordance with international law, including the Charter
of the United Nations, international refugee and humanitarian law, human rights and fundamental freedoms. We reaffirm our
commitment on increasing the effectiveness of the UN counter-terrorism framework, including in the areas of cooperation and
coordination among the relevant UN entities, designation of terrorists and terrorist groups and technical assistance to Members
States. We call for expeditious finalization and adoption of the Comprehensive Convention on International Terrorism (CCIT)
by the United Nations General Assembly.
52. We recognize the important contribution of BRICS countries
to United Nations peacekeeping operations, and the importance of United Nations peacekeeping operations to international peace
and security. We emphasize the need for BRICS countries to further enhance communication on peacekeeping matters.
53. We reiterate our commitment to address the world drug problem based on the United Nations drug control
conventions, through an integrated, comprehensive and balanced approach to drug supply and demand reduction strategies. We
stress the importance of the outcome document of the 30th Special Session of the United Nations General Assembly on the world
drug problem, and call for strengthening of international and regional cooperation and coordination to counter the global
threat caused by the illicit production and trafficking of drugs, especially opiates. We note with deep concern the increasing
links in some regions of the world between drug trafficking, money laundering and organized crime and terrorism.
54. We reiterate the need for all countries to cooperate in promoting and protecting human rights and fundamental
freedoms under the principles of equality and mutual respect. We agree to continue to treat all human rights, including the
right to development, in a fair and equal manner, on the same footing and with the same emphasis. We will strengthen cooperation
on issues of common interests both within BRICS and in multilateral fora including the United Nations Human Rights Council,
taking into account the necessity to promote, protect and fulfill human rights in a non-selective, non-politicized and constructive
manner, and without double standards.
55. Keenly aware of the global security challenges faced
by the international community in the area of international migration, we emphasize the growing role of effective migration
regulation for the benefit of international security and development of the society.
56. We consider the UN
has a central role in developing universally accepted norms of responsible state behavior in the use of ICTs to ensure a peaceful,
secure, open, cooperative, stable, orderly, accessible and equitable ICT environment. We emphasize the paramount importance
of the principles of international law enshrined in the Charter of the United Nations, particularly the state sovereignty,
the political independence, territorial integrity and sovereign equality of states, non-interference in internal affairs of
other states and respect for human rights and fundamental freedoms. We emphasize the need to enhance international cooperation
against terrorist and criminal misuse of ICTs, reaffirm the general approach laid in the eThekwini, Fortaleza, Ufa and Goa
declarations in this regard, and recognize the need for a universal regulatory binding instrument on combatting the criminal
use of ICTs under the UN auspices as stated in the Ufa Declaration. We note with satisfaction the progress achieved by the
Working Group of Experts of the BRICS States on Security in the use of ICTs. We decide to promote cooperation according to
the BRICS Roadmap of Practical Cooperation on Ensuring Security in the Use of ICTs or any other mutually agreed mechanism
and acknowledge the initiative of the Russian Federation on a BRICS intergovernmental agreement on cooperation in ensuring
security in the use of ICTs.
57. We believe that all states should participate on an equal footing
in the evolution and functioning of the Internet and its governance, bearing in mind the need to involve relevant stakeholders
in their respective roles and responsibilities. The structures that manage and regulate the critical Internet resources need
to be made more representative and inclusive. We note with satisfaction the progress made by the BRICS Working Group on ICT
Cooperation. We recognize the necessity to strengthen our cooperation in this area. To that end, BRICS will continue to work
together through the existing mechanism to contribute to the secure, open, peaceful and cooperative use of ICTs on the basis
of equal participation of the international community in its management.
58. We reiterate that outer
space shall be free for peaceful exploration and used by all States on the basis of equality in accordance with international
law. Reaffirming that outer space shall remain free from any kind of weapons or any use of force, we stress that negotiations
for the conclusion of an international agreement or agreements to prevent an arms race in outer space are a priority task
of the United Nations Conference on Disarmament, and support the efforts to start substantive work, inter alia, based on the
updated draft treaty on the prevention of the placement of weapons in outer space and of the threat or use of force against
outer space objects submitted by China and the Russian Federation. We also note an international initiative for a political
obligation on the no first placement of weapons in outer space.
59. Priority should be accorded
to ensuring the long-term sustainability of outer space activities, as well as ways and means of preserving outer space for
future generations. We note that this is an important objective on the current agenda of the UN Committee on the Peaceful
Uses of Outer Space (UNCOPUOS). In this respect, we welcome the decision by the UNCOPUOS Scientific and Technical Sub-Committee
Working Group on Long-term Sustainability of Outer Space Activities to conclude negotiations and achieve consensus on the
full set of guidelines for the long term sustainability of outer space activities by 2018 to coincide with the commemoration
of the 50th Anniversary of the first United Nations Conference on the Exploration and Peaceful Uses of Outer Space (UNISPACE
+ 50).
People-to-People Exchanges
60. We emphasize the importance of people-to-people exchanges to promoting development and enhancing mutual understanding,
friendship and cooperation among BRICS peoples. We agree to deepen cooperation in such fields as culture, education, science
and technology, sports and health as well as among media organizations and local governments, to strengthen the third pillar
of BRICS cooperation and foster a meaningful resonance of the BRICS partnership amongst its peoples.
61. We value cultural diversity as a precious asset of BRICS cooperation. We stress the role of culture and cultural
diversity in promoting sustainable development, and encourage BRICS countries to engage in cultural exchanges and mutual learning
to cultivate common values on the basis of diversity and sharing. We welcome the formulation of a BRICS action plan to advance
practical cultural cooperation and the establishment of the BRICS Alliance of Libraries, Alliance of Museums, Alliance of
Art Museums and National Galleries as well as Alliance of Theaters for Children and Young People. We look forward to the success
of the BRICS Culture Festival to be held later in mid-September 2017 in Xiamen. We will continue our work on the establishment
of a BRICS Cultural Council to provide the necessary platform to enhance cultural cooperation among BRICS countries.
62. We stress the importance of education to promoting sustainable economic and social development, and to
strengthening BRICS partnership, and commend the positive progress in our education cooperation. We reiterate our support
for BRICS University League and BRICS Network University in conducting education and research cooperation, welcome efforts
to promote cooperation among educational think tanks, and exchanges among youth including by organizing youth summer camps
and offering more scholarship opportunities to BRICS students. We agree to share experience and practices in realizing education-related
sustainable development goals.
63. We believe in the importance of sports cooperation to popularizing
traditional sports and deepening the friendship among BRICS peoples. Recalling the successful hosting of BRICS U-17 Football
Tournament in Goa in 2016, we commend the success of the First BRICS Games, which was a highlight of this year's people-to-people
exchanges. We encourage relevant departments to sign an MOU on sports cooperation to provide greater impetus to sports cooperation
among our five countries.
64. We agree to enhance BRICS role in global health governance, especially
in the context of the World Health Organization and UN agencies, and foster the development and improve the availability of
innovative medical products through promotion of research and development and access to affordable, quality, effective and
safe drugs, vaccines, diagnostics and other medical products and technologies as well as to medical services through enhanced
health systems and health financing. We agree to improve surveillance capacity and medical services to combat infectious diseases,
including Ebola, HIV/AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria, as well as non-communicable diseases and encourage greater application
of ICTs to improve the level of health service provision. We welcome the outcomes of the BRICS Health Ministers Meeting and
High-level Meeting on Traditional Medicine, and commend the establishment of a long-term mechanism for traditional medicine
exchanges and cooperation, to promote mutual learning of traditional medicines and pass them down to future generations. We
welcome the decision to set up the Tuberculosis Research Network, to be presented at the First WHO Global Ministerial Conference
Ending Tuberculosis in the Sustainable Development Era: A Multisectoral Response, Moscow, Russian Federation, 16-17 November
2017. We express support for the meeting as well as the First United Nations General Assembly High-Level Meeting on Tuberculosis
in 2018. We commit ourselves to enhanced cooperation at international fora on health matters including at G20.
65. We reaffirm our commitment to promote a long-term and balanced demographic development and continue cooperation
on population related matters in accordance with the Agenda for BRICS Cooperation on Population Matters for 2015-2020.
66. We note with satisfaction the progress in the exchanges and cooperation in various areas, including governance,
film-making, media, think-tank, youth, parliament, local governments and trade union, and agree to further advance such exchanges
and cooperation. We commend the first joint film production by BRICS countries and commend the success of the BRICS Film Festival,
the Media Forum, Friendship Cities and Local Governments Cooperation Forum, Youth Forum, Young Diplomats Forum and Young Scientists
Forum. We appreciate the successful hosting of the BRICS Forum of Political Parties, Think-Tanks and Civil Society Organizations
as well as the Seminar on Governance, and will carry these good initiatives forward in the future. In this regard, we note
the proposal to establish by China the BRICS Research and Exchange Fund.
67. We appreciate the important
progress in BRICS institutional development and reiterate our commitment to further strengthen it to make BRICS cooperation
more responsive to the changing situation. We commend China for taking measures during its Chairmanship to enhance the Sherpas'
coordination role in BRICS cooperation. We instruct the Sherpas to continue their discussion concerning BRICS institutional
development.
68. We recommit our strong support for multilateralism and the central role of the UN in
international affairs. We commit to strengthening the coordination and cooperation among BRICS in the areas of mutual and
common interests within the UN and other multilateral institutions, including through regular meetings among our permanent
representatives in New York, Geneva and Vienna, and further enhance the voice of BRICS in international fora.
69. In continuation of BRICS tradition of outreach since the Durban Summit, we will hold a Dialogue of Emerging Market
and Developing Countries on the implementation of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and the building of broad partnerships
for development under the theme of "Strengthening Mutually-Beneficial Cooperation for Common Development" in promotion
of BRICS Plus cooperation.
70. South Africa, Brazil, Russia and India commend China's Chairmanship
in 2017 and express sincere gratitude to the Government and people of China for hosting the Ninth BRICS Summit in Xiamen.

Did you know that the main reason why the 20th centry was one of world wars was
that while in racing to access to thousands
to million times more power than that of a horse, the addiction to carbon of first places to spin this biggere and bigger caused Industrial Revolutions most developed nations to go to war when they had run out of their
own carbon or to surpress trade with colonies to that the empire got the carbon energy;
a related flaw of IR1 was the opportunity Would you be happy with the idea that every
goodwiled nation shoudl be thanking our luck stars if the a leader of a billion smart people now knew that his half a billion
youth's sustainability depended on them making productive friednships with all youth eberywhere These
are 2 urgently relevant ideas of the curriculum of Entreprenurial Revolution stared as a dilague @ The Economist in 1968.
This website tries to help anyone who wants to understand ER do so in an hour- but we ask youth to give back- if you do agree
with ER then co-blog out of one of 20 Economist sub-blogs- what Q&A do your peopels most need to share with whom so we
can all value the half the wprld aged under 30 as the sustainability generation Are
we designing the world around realistic achievement of a handful of overall goals? Are these 5 an optimal combo? For examplel if we were doing all five everywhere we exchnage value would peace and personal safely be blossoming
everywhere too? - green renewability
- win-win
market designs wherever mobilisation of learning tech makes this possible instead of zero-sum
- girls
(their lives health and productive development as well as mother earth's natural rules) lifup half the world
- ending systemic poverty
- communities progessing our childrens livelihoods
as brighter than our own
while
we have no argument if all nations of the world can trust each other to govern 17 goals, mathematically factoring a lot of goals to a minimum number connecting all the goals makes real-time mediation possible/trnasparent; people cant measure success by 17 goals all of which may have tensions - so what happens is professions who
choose one number to audit above all others commit the world's biggest maths errors (capable of ending our species) | Norman
Macrae is known as one of the people who foresaw what futures are possible In1962
he predicted japan (better systems of microelectronics (without which computers wouldnt exist, intel developed programable silicon chip because a japanese calculator firm gave it such a large order but it dindt one to be locked into one suppliers specifications,) and civil engieering (eg bullet
train) and trading operations( eg container superports and cities where trade
was smooth) and the east would rise and rise; by 1976 he was inviting world leaders
and readers of The Economist to map why the whole world needed to celebrate
china being the epicentre of all the collaboration challenges the net generation
would systemically/exponentially need to innovate- to norman the alternative that
over one sixth of a most civilised race on earth be uneremployed in age of connectivity (death of cost of distance as main factor in organisation) was terrifying; in 1968 when it was clear to norman that man would land on the moon he started designing entreprenurial
revolution: the Q&A curriculum of assuming man keeps doubling spend on Learning
& Communications Technolgies every 7 \years to 2030- will spending over 4000
times more on LCT versus 1946 turn out brilaintly well or terrifyingly badly as you may know both science fiction writers and scientists (eg Einstein) had developed the negative
end game of Big Brotherdom . ER would need peoples all over the world to change
ahead of time- otherwise BB was where systems were designed to spin us.
Norman was prepared to question history way beyong any nation's conventional wisdom- he
had anadvatage as a diaspora scot (most of us were alteady living around tge world in 1850 since we had been colonised by Empire maker England in early 1700s; this norman saw fatal flaws in Industrial revolution; to innovate was extremely unevenly distributed
geographically-so while one parft of the world was racing to the moon, at least a third in the 1960s had no access to electricity
grids norman didnt know what
futures would happen but he did try and mediate what futures would all 7.5 billion people though he would value the assumption
of sustaining the human race for our chldres chldren - In fact The Economst was
funded in 1843 to severely and publicly examine the world's biggest decsions-makers ahead of time? would you agree that is
an essential purspoe of media (otherwise hi-trust as the core flow adam smith demanded of every market will not be realised
across generations) Norman
had survived world war as teenager navigating planes over modernday bangaldesh/myanmar -he therefore didnt like wars nor stalins nor hitlers and loved seeing former enemies connect win-win trades |

E2 Sir Fazle Abed - face up to the truth that the world
has left the greatest sustainabgility challemnges to be solved by networks linking in the
world's poorest goals- sir fazle discovered the 7 most critical markets to redesign value round: health
of infants and mothers, food. land and water security, resilience /disaster relief and redevelopment , education, finance, mobile tech leapfroging, green energy and climate- all of these markets required different
business and direct funding models so very poorest not just included but integral
to changing cultures and adapting to how 1000 times more investment in tech of being connected has made next few years the most exciting to be alive as we the peoples determine sustainability of our species brac1.0 - the purpose of food and drink markets - while americans were racing to the moon in the 1960s,
the place that became the nation of Bangladesh and China were facoing chalenge - how to design food markets so that famine
doesnt happen (40 million people died in one chiense famine), and in particuloar how do we get local nutrition to nursing
mothers and infants during the furst 1000 days that most determine whether their brain grows; china and sir fazle abed partnered
on rice science- developing varieties for almost every diverse condition that the poorest harvest- this was the most important
startch to end famine- in bangladesh sir fazle abed went on to redesign value chains of vegetables. poultry and milk so that
livelihoods of poorest village mothers led these matkets. Sir Fazle also tried to import china's idea of barefoot doctirs;
but bangaldesh didnt have qualified people whoi wanted to live in the village- so he focused on oral rehydration and other
most basic health services mothers and infants needed- hundereds oif thoiusands of para health servant jobns in te vikages
were created and both children and mother mortality rates came down to pars in the region; all teh while sir fazle reinvented
charity- designing microifrachsies with poositve cashflows so that solutions replicated through every village grassroots womens
networks ; next came finacial services vikage mothers needed; and schools (here direct cash transfers were inovated so that
the brightest primary school girls won secinadry scholarshipos; in these and other ways the 8th largest nation launched in
1971 a poorest in teh wporld became the lab for extreme solutions to all sustainability goals- the reputation of bangaldesh
for designing the most exciting solutions with the least made it the partbnership nation of choice for thsie whoi wanted to
experiment with mobile and solar to end poverty - bangladesh now has over 20 yeras of developing 2.0 solutions and sir fazle

xxWorld Record Job Creators (WRJC) –
W99 Smith, W98 Wilson, W97 Keynes2017-2022 THE LAST 5
YEARS OF YOUTHS ANY WORLD IS POSSIBLE WRJC share a curious habit. They look around at communities
and see lots of work to be done. Of course, the most life critical work varies by time and place. For example, America may
be the richest (most powerful) nation. But people in many of its communities are both sad and feel ever more unsafe, they
start to fear each other. Naturally speaking: eleven year old girls are better measurers of community wellbeing than
politicians in high congresses or the academic they hire in ivory towers. Girls approaching adolescence can tell you where
a place has too many guns, drugs, makes their body unsafe to be, or not be. Recently The Lancet has also advocated that girls of this
age make better peer to peer teachers on adolescent health than anyone else. This is an example of a “missing curriculum”
–one that digital media if it was truly social could help celebrate local heroines of. Moreover brain science
shows extreme adaptive (communally creative ) capabilities at this age. Our species has been designed to be locally curious,
diverse in cultural empowerment. Between 2016 and 1946 we bet the species on investing in 1000 times more tech connectivity
of communications and learning. Would the endgame be big brotherdom or joy of little sisters? For curious educators, The Lancet and its mainly Australian
adolescent research teams offer a wonderful amplification of early 20th c
work by Gandhi and particularly his main education adviser Maria Montesorri . This has been added to half a century later
by Franciscan alumni of Paulo Freire whose work in turn has been blended with Gandhi’s and magically reinterpreted as
muslim girls networks ended poverty and built what otherwise would have been the largest failed nation: Bangladesh . Vocational
schooling valuing peer to peer apprenticeship designs helps makes communities self-sufficient around basic life-blossoming
skills, and service microfranchsies. Schooling systems based on this exploratory idea have very different consequences than
those based on examining the world (and certifying individual future potential) as if there is always only one correct answer
(already known). For those who #2030now wish to invest in the youngest half of the world as the sustainability #learninggeneration,
the truth is : there has never been a greater need to open spaces to innovation all over our global village world. Fortunately
mathematicians who have read Einstein know how to prove why servant leaders ,like sir fazle abed are correct in saying: small
is beautiful and large scaling is absolutely essential if girls are to end poverty – let alone lift up half the sky
as Chinese culture sees it . Einstein’s systemic finding needs to be celebrated now wherever life and livelihoods blossom:
whenever male scientists say there is nothing more to innovate what they actually mean is they need to model relationship
dynamics at a more micro level than ever previously achieved. To do that requires an entrepreneurial revolution in mircoeconomics
that big bankers feds and eg paper currencies are least competent to co-create In 2017, now that we have some expereience of experimenting
with the internet and its universal mobilisation: Is it possible for world trade to be designed round big data gets ever smaller
in its applicability to communities?. Bravo Jack Ma for saying 2008 “our chinese idea of how e-commerce can free bottom-up
community trading maybe half crazy but we are not stupid”. Jack was too polite to say to Bill Clinton’s global
audience: and subprime economics may be half-crazy but it is stupid. Voicing after all is a responsibility for youth whose
mother tongue is English. 9 year old new yorker shames 3000 adults jan 2008
What
Everybody Needs to Know First About Economics Economics designs peoples futures but this
depends on what logics are analysed- here are the logics The Economist used in the early 19080s when it discussed how the
net gneration could be the most productive time for youth A nation/place cannot
sustain growth unless its capital is structured so that family's savings are invested in their next generation's productivity. Norman
Macrae's 1954 book on The London Capital Market provides chapter and verse. Historically it was timely as London's industrial
revolution had planted most of the developed world's laws and financial instruments. Futurewise this book became a source
for Norman's forty years of leadership challenges including 3000 editorials. THese became branded in the 2 genres of entrepreneurial
revolution and future history of the net generation genre which he focused on from 1972. They script in practical details
most of the changes that economists would need to make to historic rules if globalisation is not to collapse the worldwide
financial system of 2010s | Norman framed his writings on future purposes huan most wanted around the idea that The Net Generation
to 2024 would face change on a scale never previously experienced by our human race. To prevent risks and celebrate job creating
opportunities Norman proposed in his 1984 book (The 2024 Report) that the world should unite around youth's most
exciting millennium goal. He explained why economics would design the most popular futures if the goal was chosen as racing
to end poverty everywhere. Reasons included: its possible, its exciting, it creates jobs post-industrial generation
will need to design around collaborative technology, it can empower youth to joyfully unite cultures as we become borderless
(more connected than separated), it aligns economics principles with nature's exponentially (compounding) rules of evolutionary
selection which are community-up and open. | download more profiles of 100 collaboration leaders of 2010s = youths most productuive decade We are shocked how few people know of the main findings of the renowned economist
Maynard Keynes- increasingly only economics riles the world and the greatest risk to the future working lives of our children
comes from elderly macroeconomists who hire themselves out to the biggest who want to get bigger.
Historically when faulty systems of macroeconomists ruined civilisations they
fell one by one. But Einstein took Keynes logic further and hypothesised that the first generation to become more connected
than separated by technology would be subject to a final exam. Now if we let erroneous macroeconomists rule whole continents
of nations will collapse.
By 1976 my father (Norman macrae) -probably
the last student of economics mentored by Keynes- was writing at The Economist why the next half century would
see the net generation tested - he called upon the genre of Entrepreneurial Revolution (ER) networkers to sort out the greatest
innovation challenge economics - and so the human race - will ever face .

with a ruling monopoly - see below

Discuss: what does everyone need to know about the way economists think and behave. Understand 2 opposite
segments of E : The Unacknowledged Microeconomist and the Fatally Conceited.MacroEconomist | Keynes
- because economics will incresingly rule the world, the greatest danger to the futures of youth is elderly macroeconomists

can do for you and purposefully improve on this over time through hi-trust communal feedback debate difference between true capitalism and phoney capitalism - agree on a picture
like that on the right- we have seen cases where one of the 10 coordinates shown felt the system had betrayed their greatest
trust, and so zeroised the organsaition or network (even ones that accountants had been reprorting record profits ahd $100

- start discussing multi-win models - see our 4 favorites from 36
years of debates with entrepreneuruial revoltionaries
- choose say 12 markets whose future
purpose is most vital to sustaining your children - and use media to agree what the greatest human purpose and corresponding
mkilennium goals are that need investing in to fee each market and youth's working lives in serving the most valuable purpose
- get those (including all parents?) who save across generations to throw out speculators from banking systems
and capital markets - eg next time there is a bailout (which means taking your childrens money to refinance a bank) wipe out
shareholders; let them set lawyers on old managers and any politicians their pr's lobbied; keep savings accounts safe; restructure
bank so that it invests in youth productivity and sustaining communities not bubbles, and not trapping people in debt

yet requires that organisations it licences to audit goodwii. 20 years of research has proved the following reciprocal relationship

MORE ABOUT WHERE VALUING NETGEN CAME FROM -
in the 1990s I was working with big 5 accountants; I argued for a missing audit they needed to do as regularly as their monetisation
audit; I called this how goodwill modelling multiplies value around a gravitational purspoe ewhise gials all sides want to
progress over time; it turns out that in knowlege scetors over 90% of the future is bayesian predicatbale on quality of goodwill
relationships-3 yeras before andersen crashed I usd this model to warn them that if they stoped multiplying conflicts around
true and fair they would be zeroised by society- I didnt succeed in getting my advice to be acted on but at that time unseen
wealth publications made by brookings and georgetwon had just been banned by the incolimng bush adminsitration - who didnt
like to be told that without the second aidt risks would compound unseen- every collapse USA has seen a hand in during 2000s
(and viralised to other nations since 2008) can be traced to this mathenatical error what can be done about this mess -debate
difference between true cpaitalism and phoney capitalsim choose say 12 markets hose future purpose is most vital
to sustaining your children - and use media to aggree what the greatest huan purspose and corresponding mkilennium goals are
that need investing in get thse who save across generations to throw out speculators from bankiing systems - eg
next time there is a bailout (which means taking your childrens money to refinace a bank) wipe out sharehilers; let them set
lawyers on old managers and any politicians their pr's lobbied; keep savings acconts safe; restructure bank so that it invests
in youth productivity and sustaining communities not bubbles, and trapping people in debt -if you do this today's
millions times more coalbration technology than a generation ago can make the next decade the most productive time and joyful for
youty and everyine to be alive instead of the most dismal time where natios led by old macroecnomist put youth out of work DO YOU KNOW...Q: Original Purpose of Economics? A The Scotland of the 1750s was at the end of a first generation to have found their country taken over by England's Empire., So Adam Smith was motivated to start writing
about how to design systems so that peoples could could look forward to their next generation sustaining more productive lives
than they had had ... 7 quarters later keynes general theory issued humanity's greatest challenge- economics as a systems
science had reached the state that only economics rules the world ... more | Q: What do the man-made systems that rule the world look like? A Purposeful
value exchanges composed round 5 main flows of how productively peoples lives are used and 5 main demands human beings
make as co-workers, customers, owners, stewards of the globe, stewards of society at the village level - more | Q: Why can't human race in 21st C be sustained with choice of economics made by 20th C biggest
banks and govs etc? A Long Story: ER alumni are in their 37th year of offering debating scripts eg1 on wht some industrial age systems after world war 2 were designed to be too big to exist as the
first net generation became more connected than separated by geographical borders ... What is known is that 2010s is most
exciting decade to be an entrpreneur because our impacts define what will be possible for all our childrens' children more |
World Class Brands are in 25th year (as a subnetwork of Norman Macrae's Entrepreneurial Revolution)
of helping sustain the most purposeful organsiations or markets in the world. Core to any charter of purpose is a quiz
revolving round this question- who would uniquely miss what if this didn't
exist?. From this Q&A's list of trust-flows, economics maps
how to connect producers and demanders of the exchange in multi-win models of purpose. Henceforth, potential
conflicts with this goodwill model are audited and resolved at every cycle so that unique purpose is celebrated to
lead the future by continuously multiplying the most value and trust. This model provides the simplest benchmark
around all exponential impact metrics of sustainability investement can be calculated and the transparency of all
multi-win models are webbed around pro-youth economics. Questions welcomed chris.macrae@yahoo.co.uk washington dc hotline 1 301 881 1655 |
