The need for investment in infrastructure, education for raising level of worker skills, and wage subsidies for those left behind, in the world economy of 2014-2030
10/06/2014
This research in the Economist on the world economy shows the effects of technology are benefitting fewer people, leaving less skilled workers poorer than before, and creating large income gaps, more inequality. How to address these problems are a challenge for just and effective governance. Technology even at Hon Hai in China is shifting work to robots, and the question is how the millions of people in India can find jobs when technology can enable manufacturing with fewer people.

We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
