The IMF's new relevance and the need to get its governance right.
03/30/2009
Begium has more votes than Brazil, and China and India have paltry shares. The Economist calls this shamefully shortsighted of the Europeans. It gives Dominique Strauss Kahn, and his Keynesian instincts, a good score for the transformation of the IMF that is underway into a global institution which is friendly to emerging countries. Calls for a change in the quotas at the World Bank and the IMF by emerging market countries.

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.
