The University of Adelaide is establishing a Yunus Social Business Centre, to embed the ideas of Nobel Prize winning economist Muhammad Yunus “in teaching research, incubation and acceleration.” There are established Yunus Centres at La Trobe U, UNSW and Griffith U. Professor Yunus pioneered micro finance and credit to lift people out of poverty by funding entrepreneurs who are too poor to access traditional banks. Jokes about this suiting the SA economy would be unkind.
