3. Problem
• The premature deaths of young parents from HIV/AIDS has
left more than 13 million orphans abandoned across the
continent of Africa.
• 3,000 orphans are dying every day and they cannot survive
the recession alone.
• The economic and care burden on the grandparents,
relatives and communities is too heavy. They receive no
pensions or social welfare.
• The African economies depend on this generation of
children to be sustainable.
• America depends on 246 products from Africa that cannot
be out-sourced from anywhere else in the quantities that
America consumes.
• Africa has an economic, energy, food, and health security
challenge that is impacting us all.
4. Solution
• These orphans are the Human Assets of Africa - they must
be safe, healthy and educated to play their critical role in
the global economy.
• The private sector will invest $55 billion over 4 years to co-
create 2,166 Economic Development Centers with safe
accomodation for 13 million orphans, widows and
caregivers.
• The Hope on AFRICA Program will co-create jobs for
22,000 unemployed veterans to work with local laborers to
clear the land, build the foundations and assemble the
buildings.
• 22,000 American youths will digitally database the orphans
and show them how to use their wind-up laptops and
connect to the internet.
• Green technologists will provide the latest technology to
ensure affordable sustainabilty.
5. Business model
• A Stakeholder model where
everyone plays their role.
• 'Top down' planning
• 'Bottom up' investment
• African Communities say:
quot;Yes We Canquot;
• Private sector provides
investment funds
• Public sector provides
• short term guarentee
• Veterans and youth
co-create with local
laborers
• Orphans, widows and
caregivers co-create
micro-enterprises and
co-operatives
6. Technology
Over 100 Green technologies to be applied to co-create an
environmentally sustainable and healthy environment. eg:
• Water pumps for drinking, irrigation and fires
• Rain water harvesting to recycle for showers and laundry
• Recycled materials for walls and roofs
• Solar panels and water heaters
• Trash to energy unit
• Mini taxis, hoppers and trucks with 85 mpg
• Wind up laptop computers with on-demand ciriculum
• Communications tower for free local telephone calls
• Mobile phone banking
• Soil technologies to conserve water and boost root growth
• Sensors for crop protection
• All green technologists invited to submit bids. Best tech wins
7. Celebrities and Fan Clubs
