Why Women Intelligent Transportation (WIT) became my life's amateur joy -dedicated to my daughter [email protected] bethesda MD, Wash DC region

ED: 53 years ago i was privileged to be hired for 13 years elapsed time by Unilever on Asian Pacific (WIWCG) who's intelligent women consumer goods who -1982 sent me to jakarta -with one main street- kast time i visoited in was 500 by 500 megacity block; so many other twin super cities in asia transformed - do you have a favorite?

progessionbally as a damtp qualified startistician i have a different focu - next trillion dollar sectirs (the steve jobs challenge from 2001 uniting worldwide top 5 women open ai universities ) books published in my mediation genre include world class brands which i scribbled whendad retired from 40 years at The Economit 1988 and with Economist Intelligence unit Brand Charteringtrust-flow auditing 3p's Purpose Passion Price. I was depatchedf first tpo Jakarta Indonesia at that time one main street -or 1999's triple special isssue of journal of marketing managment - can brand realuty end fake media?: -

although i have analysed varioous generative womens inteligence exponentials in last 53 years - my amatueur passion is WIT Women Inetlligent Transporation- twin supercity development making families productive;

unlike men who use public tranport for jobs and nights out with the lads; wome use public transport for jobs, taking kids tp school and care trips across extemnded family - therefoire if you are intereted in women built health services which became my main interest in 20 years of trips to banglades with and wih win-win with each other

Grog3 replay of H st 22nd summit tranforming transprtationEnhanced Intelligence

Murthi’s panel deepens the narrative: road safety isn’t just lives saved—it’s human capital preserved, especially for women and girls. India’s roads-to-schools success mirrors Bangalore’s potential, tying Chen’s economics, Larson’s safety, and your AI excitement into a cohesive, actionable whole. It’s a win-win for all—millennials, Musk, Huang, and Trump’s base alike!

Transforming Transportation 2025, Day 1 (First Two Hours + Road Safety Panel)

The 22nd Transforming Transportation Summit (March 11–12, 2025), hosted by the World Bank and WRI, launched with "Driving Change, Delivering Solutions." The first two hours featured opening remarks, keynotes, and a plenary, while a later "Road Safety Leadership towards 2030" panel (summarized by Mamta Murthi, VP Human Development, on LinkedIn) enriched the narrative. Here’s an integrated summary:

Opening Remarks: Guangzhe Chen (World Bank) and Ani Dasgupta (WRI)

• Guangzhe Chen: Highlighted transport as “a missing link in economic development,” connecting jobs and opportunities (2:21–4:47). The World Bank’s $35 billion portfolio (160 projects) and $20 billion since 2017 target resilience—e.g., Pacific roads, Egypt’s rail, Dhaka’s BRT (5:04–6:38). Yet, 1 billion lack roads, 2 billion lack transit, and 1.2 million die in crashes yearly (6:44–7:07). New tools like the Transport Academy build skills for millennials globally (7:42–8:20).
• Ani Dasgupta: Celebrated a 22-year community driving prosperity via transport (10:21–12:22). Examples: Bangalore’s safety shift cut 650 deaths (13:22–14:08), Brazil revived transit post-COVID (14:14–14:43), and India/Africa electrify two/three-wheelers for jobs (15:15–15:54). 2025’s COP offers transport-specific NDCs (16:26–17:40).

Keynote: President Bernardo Arévalo, Guatemala

• Arévalo tied transport to inclusion and growth (4% GDP projected 2025) via six strategies: legal reforms, infrastructure, rural access, U.S. cooperation, safety, and governance (18:45–28:20). A story of rural women in labor delayed by no roads underscored urgency (30:50–32:35), aligning with job-focused U.S. partnerships (28:26–29:24).

Keynote: Frannie Léautier, SouthBridge Investment, Rwanda

• Léautier cast transport as transformative—capacity (Dakar’s BRT), governance (Singapore’s pricing), and innovation (Togo’s battery swaps) shape livability (37:22–51:23). Green jobs (UK EVs) and education (Nelson Mandela Institutes) empower millennials (47:38–48:13).

Plenary: Capacity, Governance, and Innovation

• Panelists: José Tonato (Benin), Ydanis Rodriguez (NYC), Carlos Monje (Chile), Renée Amilcar (Canada), Sarath Abayakoon (Sri Lanka).
• Themes: Vision drives action—Tonato’s smart transit (58:19–59:00), Rodriguez’s Vision Zero (57:02–57:55), Monje’s e-buses (1:19:08–1:22:17). Safety and equity need cultural shifts (1:03:11–1:08:12), and local fixes (e.g., Kandy’s multimodal hub) require collaboration (1:15:41–1:23:05).
• Q&A: Kenya’s Moren sought lasting systems—Tonato urged upstream planning (1:28:23–1:35:39). Aiden asked about EVs—Rodriguez and Monje cited NYC e-bikes and Chile’s bus transition (1:37:50–1:42:55).

Road Safety Leadership Panel (Mamta Murthi’s Summary, March 12, 2025)

• Mamta Murthi, VP Human Development: Joined Minister Chris Bonett (Malta), Kelly Larson (Bloomberg Philanthropies), Maria Eugenia Martinez (Madrid), moderated by Femi Oke, with Morocco’s Benacer Boulaajoul keynoting. Road safety underpins human capital—traffic injuries rank third for premature death in low/middle-income countries. Beyond fatalities, survivors’ injuries burden women and children as caregivers, slashing economic potential. India’s road programs boosted girls’ school completion (e.g., Bangalore’s safety focus), while bikes for rural teens cut crashes and raised attendance. Safe transport connects homes, schools, and jobs—key to the 2025 Human Capital report. Murthi thanked Larson’s Bloomberg work (15 countries, 245 cities) and Madrid’s education-first approach (kindergarten-up).

Your Interests Deepened

1. Transport as Economic Link (Chen): Chen’s vision aligns with Murthi’s—roads drive education and jobs, especially for women/girls, amplifying economic stakes.
2. Road Safety (Larson): Murthi credits Larson’s Bloomberg leadership, echoing Bangalore’s success (Dasgupta) as “open intelligence”—safety maps community value, syncing with Musk’s Tesla crash-avoidance and Huang’s driverless safety platforms.
3. Women’s Development (Murthy): Murthi’s focus on women caregivers and girls’ education (India’s roads/bikes) ties human capital to transport access—a millennial win for equity and jobs.
4. Bangalore: Murthi’s India example reinforces Bangalore’s people-centric shift (Dasgupta), poised to leapfrog with AI (Huang/Modi/Anandkumar) if safety scales, rivaling Asian supercities.

22 Years for Millennials, Trump-Compatible

• 22-Year Legacy: From 2003 to 2025, the summit’s evolution—from vision to safety-human capital links—equips millennials with skills (Transport Academy) and jobs (e-buses, EVs). Murthi’s education focus adds depth.
• Trump Fit: Safety and infrastructure (Chen’s $35B, Murthi’s roads) create jobs and resilience—Trump wins—while Musk/Huang’s tech enhances safety without regulatory overreach.
