Description
In this second episode of Voices of Solutions, I am very proud and honoured to have been able to talk to Professor Muhammad Yunus, founder in 1976 of the first microcredit institution, Grameen Bank, and then, with Crédit Agricole in 2008, of the Gramen Crédit Agricole Foundation. He is literally the inventor of microfinance, microcredit and social business. Nicknamed the "banker to the poor", he was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 2006.
During our discussion, he looks back at the origins of his work to help the most disadvantaged, women in particular, in Bangladesh, who simply could not access money. He also talks about his vision of a world with three zeros: zero poverty, zero unemployment and zero net carbon emissions, and offers his vision of an emerging new economic system that can save humankind and the planet.
