Global Goals: Every Achievement Counts (Section 3: Social Enterprise)Koh How Tze
“Most people want to do good, and believe that doing so will ultimately benefit everyone, including a company’s shareholders. But what’s been missing in recent decades is a clear compass to guide those in leading positions in our society and economy,” ~ Klaus Schwab, founder and executive chairman of the World Economic Forum.
Imagine being a consumer, you walk into two different shops looking for a new pair of shoes. One is a traditional retail shop, the other one, as you walked in, a simple signboard caught your attention stating that “for every pair of shoes you bought, we will donate another pair to those who need it.” Which shop will you end up purchasing the shoes from if the quality and pricing are more or less the same?
“Charity is no solution to poverty. Charity only perpetuates poverty by taking the initiative away from the poor. We can create a poverty-free world because poverty is not created by poor people. It has been created and sustained by the economic and social systems that we have designed for ourselves; the institutions and concepts that make up that system; the policies that we pursue. You change the system and people get out of poverty. It is the ability to control capital that gives people the power to rise out of poverty.” ~ Muhammad Yunus, Banker to the Poor: Micro-Lending and the Battle Against World Poverty

Russian anarchist and anti-war movement in the third year of full-scale warAntti Rautiainen
Anarchist group ANA Regensburg hosted my online-presentation on 16th of May 2024, in which I discussed tactics of anti-war activism in Russia, and reasons why the anti-war movement has not been able to make an impact to change the course of events yet. Cases of anarchists repressed for anti-war activities are presented, as well as strategies of support for political prisoners, and modest successes in supporting their struggles.

Up the Ratios Bylaws - a Comprehensive Process of Our Organizationuptheratios
Up the Ratios is a non-profit organization dedicated to bridging the gap in STEM education for underprivileged students by providing free, high-quality learning opportunities in robotics and other STEM fields. Our mission is to empower the next generation of innovators, thinkers, and problem-solvers by offering a range of educational programs that foster curiosity, creativity, and critical thinking.
At Up the Ratios, we believe that every student, regardless of their socio-economic background, should have access to the tools and knowledge needed to succeed in today's technology-driven world. To achieve this, we host a variety of free classes, workshops, summer camps, and live lectures tailored to students from underserved communities. Our programs are designed to be engaging and hands-on, allowing students to explore the exciting world of robotics and STEM through practical, real-world applications.
Our free classes cover fundamental concepts in robotics, coding, and engineering, providing students with a strong foundation in these critical areas. Through our interactive workshops, students can dive deeper into specific topics, working on projects that challenge them to apply what they've learned and think creatively. Our summer camps offer an immersive experience where students can collaborate on larger projects, develop their teamwork skills, and gain confidence in their abilities.
In addition to our local programs, Up the Ratios is committed to making a global impact. We take donations of new and gently used robotics parts, which we then distribute to students and educational institutions in other countries. These donations help ensure that young learners worldwide have the resources they need to explore and excel in STEM fields. By supporting education in this way, we aim to nurture a global community of future leaders and innovators.
Our live lectures feature guest speakers from various STEM disciplines, including engineers, scientists, and industry professionals who share their knowledge and experiences with our students. These lectures provide valuable insights into potential career paths and inspire students to pursue their passions in STEM.
Up the Ratios relies on the generosity of donors and volunteers to continue our work. Contributions of time, expertise, and financial support are crucial to sustaining our programs and expanding our reach. Whether you're an individual passionate about education, a professional in the STEM field, or a company looking to give back to the community, there are many ways to get involved and make a difference.
We are proud of the positive impact we've had on the lives of countless students, many of whom have gone on to pursue higher education and careers in STEM. By providing these young minds with the tools and opportunities they need to succeed, we are not only changing their futures but also contributing to the advancement of technology and innovation on a broader scale.

So what’s it all about? For 20 years I have presented a view which runs contrary to traditional top-down-driven
Community and Economic Development – in fact, a view based on re-discovery of a lost natural science for community
regeneration. Simply, it’s about how communities (particularly smaller communities) can economic and socially be
regenerated and even prosper in a rapidly changing world that is obsessed with unsustainable, debt-driven growth
and debt-slavery for many. Just as a “garden” can be regenerated with planting of new seed and pruning back of
older trees to make them more productive - communities are the same. Just like a garden, a community does not
always have to get bigger to be made better. As old “plants” (businesses, services and infrastructure) disappear, these
can be replaced with the natural “seed ideas” of individuals that always exist within the community itself. Knowing
how to identify, test, value, propagate and grow these seed ideas (most of which will be micro-level economic and
social opportunities) is what the Natural Science of Community Regeneration is about – growing inclusive communities
by supporting the ideas of individuals, based on my clear definition of community inclusiveness shown on the next page.

me all of this 20 years ago...
But now, you don’t have to wait
This Graphic-Pictorial Slideshow provides revealing insight into
my journey of many years coalface experience in working with
communities (rural, island and city-based.) It’s been a journey
that has been enormously challenging in the face of traditional top-
down thinking. Yet, it has rewarded me with understanding of the
Cycle of Learning. (See page 43.)
This understanding is available to community passionate/supportive
organisations and individuals who want a genuinely sustainable,
affordable community-driven and highly inclusive process for
addressing crucial micro-level social and economic challenges.
For depth of understanding of this unique process,
I provide two primary resources:
1. This slideshow - providing a broad overview
2. My ISSUU.COM profile https://issuu.com/bobneville9
I encourage you to explore and benefit from this experience:
Through my many FREE articles that provide very clear
understanding of many smaller community challenges.
Through LOW COST Publications, effective Tools and
optional Training that provide clear, step by step guid-
ance on how to identify, test and facilitate ideas to re-
generate your community’s local economic zone.
