POVERTY
About BRAC
Percentage in poverty is reducing, but more than 500 million people still live in EXTREME poverty
CREATING A LADDER OUT OF EXTREME POVERTY IN THE PAST TWENTY YEARS, WE HAVE SEEN A STRIKING DECLINE IN HUMAN SUFFERING.
The number of people living in extreme poverty — on less than $1.90 per day — has been cut in half in just two decades. The poorest people are climbing out of poverty, emboldened and equipped to overcome their circumstances with access to vaccines, knowledge about safe pregnancies, improved nutrition, and better quality education.
BUT WITH 900 MILLION PEOPLE STILL LIVING IN EXTREME POVERTY – WITHOUT ACCESS TO ANY OF THESE SERVICES – WE HAVE A RENEWED MANDATE TO REACH THEM BY 2030.

The core concepts used in True Value Accounting (TVA) / Multi-Dimension Impact Accounting (MDIA) are derived from the core concepts of conventional double entry accounting that has proved powerful and have stood the test of time. They have changed little over hundreds of years, since written about by Pacioli in 1494 and based on documentary evidence, in use already for more than 200 years!

HUMAN CAPITAL / PROGRESS OF PEOPLE

PEOPLE / QUALITY OF LIFE (PQL)
THE MAIN PURPOSE OF EVERYTHING IS TO IMPROVE QUALITY OF LIFE ... FOR EVERYONE
Human Capital / Babies / Families / Healthy Food


THE MAIN PURPOSE OF EVERYTHING IN A FULLY FUNCTIONING SOCIO-ENVIRO-ECONOMIC SYSTEM IS FOR THE QUALITY OF LIFE OF PEOPLE TO BE OPTIMIZED
This idea was behind the thinking of Adam Smith as the field of economics was emerging, but lost over time because of an assumption that when people had more money then they would have a better quality of life. This assumption is only partly true, and getting less and less true as technology enables productivity and changes in the sstructure of the system
... Much more about the interrelationship between demographics, quality of life and economic performance.
... Much more about the impact of people on the environment, and what to do about it.
... Much more about the importance of the family, the society and the community
QUALITY OF LIFE ... satisfying basic needs and enjoying life in all its complexities
COST OF LIVING ... there are costs associated with basic needs and all the other things to have a fun filled life
CONTRIBUTION ... there are a thousand and one different ways in which people can contribute
COST OF LIVING COMPONENTS
... FOOD
... WATER
... SHELTER
... CLOTHING / STUFF
... ACCESS TO OTHER SERVICES like retail stores, gas stations, healthcare, childcare, eldercare, education, roads / transport, utilities, public safety, etc is an important factor in the STATE of the POPULATION
... ACCESS TO EMPLOYMENT - I and jobs are important in quality of life and the ability to pay for essential needs and other things needed for quality of life.
... ACCESS TO CULTURE / RELIGION / RECREATION
... ACCESS TO SOCIAL SAFETY NET
POTENTIAL TO CONTRIBUTE
... PARENTING and other family oriented care-giving is a valuable part of QUALITY OF LIFE
... ACCESS TO EMPLOYMENT - II provides an organizational setting for people to CONTRIBUTE and to be paid for it
... PRO-BONO VOLUNTEERING is another way to make CONTRIBUTION.

EVERYTHING IS ENABLED BY AND CONSTRAINED BY NATURE. ... In modern times, all sorts of People Built Systems (PBS) have been created to convert natural capital into financial capital. Over the past 200 years there have been enormous changes in the technology available to create financial capital, and people have used increasingly sophisticated management metrics to optimize for profit performance and financial wealth creation. At the same time, the impact of human activities that create financial wealth on nature and all its natural systems have been ignored.

ECONOMIC PERFORMANCE / GDP
GDP is a measure that sends all the wrong signals about economic performance in any mature economy ... though there is a strong correlation between GDP and quality of life in poor developing economies. After the 1970s GDP has proved to be a bad proxy for quality of life in rich mature economies like the United States and Canada, many countries in Europe and Japan.

Research and development results in knowledge, and know-how and intellectual property (IP) all of which has a cost, but also has a potential to contribute to better performance in the future.
Most of the R&D investment has gone towards building knowledge that will enable investors to make more profit, much less has gone to making the world a better place by improving society and improving the burden on the environment.
In one very big way technology has enabled improvements in productivity. To the extent that improvements in productivity make it possible to make the products we need to support our quality of life using less people, productivity means that there will be less employment and lower wages. In the past when there was a shortage of labor, more productivity reaulted in a better standard of living, but in richer mature societies more productivity gives additional opportunity for companies to make their products with less workers and lower payroll.

There is more knowledge, there are more ideas, there are more thinkers, there are huge possibilities, but even with all of this there is rather little progress compared to what is needed and what is possible. Something important is missing, and part of this is the lack of a system of performance measurement that embraces everything that matters. With the right metrics, it will be easier to move from 'talk' to 'walk'!

PLACE IS WHERE NATURAL CAPITAL IS DEGRADED, whether it is degradation of the land, water pollution, air pollution, resource exploitation or greenhouse gases.
PLACE IS WHERE PEOPLE BUILT STRUCTURES are located, structures with financial value, personal utility AND an environmental cost.
THE STATE OF A PLACE ... THOUSANDS OF ELEMENTS THAT GO INTO VALUING (NUMBERING) THE STATE OF THE PLACE
PROGRESS OF THE PLACE ... HOW MUCH HAS STATE IMPROVED IN A GIVEN AMOUNT OF TIME.
PERFORMANCE OF THE PLACE ... WHAT RESOURCES WERE CONSUMED TO ACHIEVE THIS PROGRESS
PROBLEMS AND CONSTRAINTS / POSSIBILITIES ... Everywhere is different, and the best way to get high performance progress is to remove a constraint that makes it possible for everything else to work better.
MANY VARIANTS OF PLACE ... from planetary scale to a person's home
Home / neighborhood / block / community / village / town / city / region / state / country

YOU ONLY MANAGE WHAT YOU MEASURE

TRUE VALUE ACCOUNTING is a key piece of systemic improvement that is needed to help make the world a better place. Management experts know that you manage what you measure and TRUE VALUE ACCOUNTING is a way to measure and acount for all the important things that are key to making for a better quality of life and a less degraded environment. Conventional accounting is a powerful system to manage for profit performance, but does too little for impact on society and impact on the environment.
TRUE VALUE ACCOUNTING ... ENHANCED ACCOUNTING THAT EMBRACES EVERYTHING THAT REALLY MATTERS INCLUDING QUALITY OF LIFE AND THE ENVIRONMENT
KEY CONCEPTS ... THE POWER OF CONVENTIONAL ACCOUNTING
VERY POWERFUL / GOOD FOR PROFITS AND WEALTH ... HAS WORKED FOR HUNDREDS OF YEARS
TRUE VALUE ACCOUNTING ... WHY? HOW? WHAT?
YOU MANAGE WHAT YOU MEASURE ... THEREFORE MEASURE WHAT MATTERS (1)
CORE CONCEPTS
DOUBLE ENTRY MONEY ACCOUNTING ... ENGINEERING EFFICIENCY ... THERMODYNAMIC PRINCIPLES
MULTI PERSPECTIVE
MULTI-DIMENSION / MULTI PERSPECTIVE
CONVENTIONAL ACCOUNTING
POWERFUL / GOOD FOR PROFITS AND WEALTH ... IGNORES IMPACT ON SOCIETY AND THE ENVIRONMENT

MEASUREMENT REALLY MATTERS
YOU ONLY MANAGE WHAT YOU MEASURE

THERE ARE MEASURES FOR FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE ... these measures are very powerful. They are the foundation for management decision making in every well managed company, but they are only about money and profit. OWNERS HAVE DONE VERY WELL ... WORKERS HAVE NOT ... this problem has been getting worse and worse for a long time and is not being addressed by policy makers.

INTANGIBLE CAPITAL ... GETTING BIGGER AND BIGGER ... KEY DRIVER OF A BETTER WORLD
FINANCIAL CAPITAL, THE ENABLER OF ECONOMIC GROWTH AND WEALTH CREATION
but increasingly a tool for wealth extraction that does damage to society and ignores damage to the environment and planetary boundaries. Financial capital is a critical lubricant for the functioning of the socio-enviro-economic system but is neither the fuel nor the engine of the system THE NATURE OF MONEY ... not working as a store of wealth, nor a good measure of system performance. BANKING AND FINANCIAL SERVICES ... an important service but never an end in itself. THE WORKINGS OF MARKETS ... effective, but only when there is market efficiency. MERGERS AND ACQUISITIONS / CONCENTRATION OF POWER ... dangerous when too much concentration of economic power.

TrueValueMetrics (TVM) is an Open Source / Open Knowledge initiative. It has been funded by family and friends. TVM is a 'big idea' that has the potential to be a game changer. The goal is for it to remain an open access initiative.
WE WANT TO MAINTAIN AN OPEN KNOWLEDGE MODEL
A MODEST DONATION WILL HELP MAKE THAT HAPPEN
