Excellencies, Distinguished Guests,
Good afternoon.
 
It is truly an honor to return to this gathering—it feels like coming home. Over the years, I have shared ideas and dreams with all of you in this very event. When I first joined this event, I did so simply as Professor Yunus. Last year, I was welcomed for the first time as the Chief Adviser of the interim government of Bangladesh—and today, I stand before you again in that same role.
Yet, regardless of the title I hold, my mission remains unchanged: to build a world where opportunity, dignity and sustainability are within reach for all. Titles may vary, but the purpose endures—to shape a world where business serves not only profit but people, our planet, and the future we all share.
Today, more than ever, that future stands at a crossroads.
Wildfires of climate change scorch the earth. The chasm of inequality grows deeper. Conflicts rage and the struggle for justice and peace tests our very humanity.
These crises are not isolated. They are intertwined—threads of a fragile tapestry, each pulling at the other, shaping the whole of our existence.
But let us remember this: the power to mend that tapestry does not lie in the past. It lives in the future we dare to imagine—and in the choices we make, here and now.
The path to a better world is not measured by yesterday’s failures. It is built with today’s courage, today’s action and today’s unwavering commitment to change.
 
Dear Friends,
I speak of a world of  "three zeros": Zero Net Carbon Emissions, Zero Wealth Concentration to End Poverty and Zero Unemployment by unleashing creativity in all.  I also emphasize on the Zero Waste and have been a part of the UN Secretary General’s "zero waste initiative". This is not a dream. It is already becoming reality.
That’s why we’re encouraging young people everywhere to form 3-Zero Clubs—spaces where individuals become 3-Zero people. A 3-Zero person commits to living sustainably, minimizing waste and embracing social entrepreneurship. They strive to contribute nothing to global warming, nothing to wealth inequality, and nothing to unemployment.
As more join this movement, these clubs grow into 3-Zero families, 3-Zero villages, 3-Zero cities—and one day, a 3-Zero world. It starts with a single step. But together, those steps can change the world.
I have always believed this forum is more than a place for speeches—it is a place for inspiration. In these turbulent times, true transformation lies in our unity. If we join hands—harnessing the power of social business, the energy of youth and the potential of technology—we can untangle even the most complex global crises.
Let us become the architects of a new wave—a world built on justice, sustainability and hope. A world where our collective dreams ignite a new dawn for all of humanity.
Thank You
