Information Technology to Eliminate Global Poverty 
                                             
------ Muhammad Yunus

Information Technology (IT) is going to change the world dramatically, in all it's dimensions.  IT is transforming old economies into new economies.  Its real potential, however, lies in creating a new society --- a society which will allow every one of its members, unlimited opportunities to unleash all the creativity and ingenuity each individual has inside of him or her.  If we can materialize this potential of IT, there will be no one in the world who will be known as a poor person.
