Professor Muhammad Yunus called on Muslim charity groups to start more social businesses during a special meeting. The Chief Adviser spoke with leaders from several Islamic countries at the Jamuna state guest house. He told them that helping poor people through business ventures works better than traditional charity methods. Yunus stressed that women and healthcare should be top priorities for these organizations. He believes social businesses can solve many problems facing poor communities around the world.
The Nobel Prize winner explained how his team approaches healthcare as a way to lift people out of poverty. He encourages young entrepreneurs everywhere to create businesses that help society rather than just make money. The visiting NGO representatives came from Turkey, Malaysia, Pakistan and Indonesia. They told Yunus that his social business ideas had already inspired them to launch similar projects back home. These leaders represent millions of Muslims who could benefit from new business models.
Eyup Akbal from Turkey leads The Union of NGOs of The Islamic World and attended the discussion. Muhammad Abdus Shakoor from Pakistan runs the Alkhidmat Foundation and serves as deputy secretary general of the same organization. Malaysian representative Fauwaz Bin Hasbullah works with an education group called WADAH. Several Bangladeshi experts also joined the conversation about expanding social business across Muslim nations. The meeting focused on practical ways to help poor families through sustainable business solutions.
