 【イベントレポート(感想編)】アキュメン・ファンドのジャクリーンさんと語ってきました!

2008年2月8日(金)にETIC.&Japan Society主催「アキュメン・ファンド代表ジャクリーンさんと語る会」が開かれました。VenturePhilanthropyの授業を担当したチームJOAMBの真理子(中山真理子)とあゆみ(坂崎あゆみ)が参加してきたので、レポートします。アキュメン・ファンドについては、こちらをご参照くださいませ。

アキュメン・ファンド代表ジャクリーンさんと語る会を終えて…

ジャクリーンさんの講演は私にとって、いつかどこかで壁にぶつかって足が止まりそうになったときでも、この日の事を思い出せばきっと前に進める。そう強く思える、一夜でした。

世界を変えるんだ。と、大の大人が真剣に言っている。しかも、どうせやるならそれを楽しみながらやりたい。そんな事をさらっと言ってしまうジャクリーンさんに私はあっけにとられると同時に、抑えられない高揚感を覚えました。


***

 ジャクリーンさんはちょうど10日ほど前に、暴動によって街が一面焼け野原になってしまったケニアに行って来たそうです。たくさんの人が、マイクロファイナンスによって自分のちいさな事業をじっくり、じっくり、始めていたところでした。しかし、暴動によって、一夜にして、街は何もなくなってしまいました。ジャクリーンさんがまだ焦げ臭い匂いの残る広場に着くと、たった一人、男の人がぺしゃんこのイスに座って、ありあわせのものを並べて売っていたそうです。どう考えても、だれも人は通らないし、買いそうにないのに・・・

「なぜ、ここでそんなことをしているの?」

「何もかも燃えてなくしてしまった。わたしが持っているのは、これだけ、希望だけなんだ。」

「私に何かできることはある?」

「店を始めるためにマイクロファイナンスで借りたお金を、今までは、店の利益で少しずつ返済していた。でも、店が焼けてしまったから、今までのペースでは返せない。返せない分を、償却してくれたらうれしい。そして、次の店を始める資金を貸して欲しい。」

 「施しはいらない。僕をまたこじきに戻さないでくれ。僕に自分の人生を変えるためのインセンティブを与えてほしい。(Don't give me a grant. Give me an incentive to change MY life.)」

「貧しい人々の声に耳を傾けて。(Listen to the poor.)彼らは助けるべき、可愛そうな、何か与えなければ何もできない人ではない。途上国の人々に必要なのは、施しではなく、尊厳(dignity)であり、エトスを持って水、住居、健康に出会える道やチャンスをつくることがわたしたちの仕事なんだ…

とジャクリーンさんはいいました。


ジャクリーンさんのこの話を受けて友人の坂崎あゆみさんはこうコメントしました。

「水も、住居も、健康も当たり前のように手に入れられる日本に住む私わたしたちだって、本当にほしいものは、誰のものでもない”自分”の人生を変える、もしくは創っていくそのためのインセンティブ、生きることへの尊厳。これは、途上国であろうと、先進国であろうと誰もが求めている、人類共通のものなのかもしれない。 」

***

ジャクリーンさんは本当に強い信念を持った方でした。特に心に残っているのが、彼女の下記のコメントです。

「私の好きな歌の歌詞に、「私達は、私達がまっていた世代なのだ(we are the ones we are waitingfor)」というフレーズがあります。時は熟したと思うのです。今、私達は、私達一人一人が世界を変えることができる、そんな時代に生きています。

まずは一歩進んでみることが大切です。二歩目は、あなたが踏み出した世界が教えてくれます。私がアフリカから帰ってきて、MBAにいたとき、「アフリカだ!世界を変えるんだ!」なんて事を考えていたのは私とあと一人のクラスメートくらいで、とても孤独な思いをしていました。でも、今、母校を訪ねると、クラス中がそんな事を考えている。あなたが一歩進んでみて。そしたらきっと彼らは後からあなたについてくる。」

"Don't be afraid to dream big,for we count on you to change the world"
(大志を抱くことを恐れないで。だってあなたが世界を変えるってみんな頼りにしているんだから。)

 上記は先輩がジャクリーンさんから頂いたメッセージです。

あの日の夜は興奮でいっぱいになって、今も思い返すとその余韻を感じます。

あのときに感じた興奮と感動、それをいつまでも胸に、一歩ずつ、あせらず、ゆっくりと進んでいきたい。改めてこのように文字に書き起こしてみて自らに強く誓った私です。

(2008年2月13日 文責 中山真理子)

It became another umbrella for radicals pardoned by Mohamed Morsi's presidential decrees throughout his one year in power, and others who trashed the violence-renouncing ideological recantations they once adopted.

Moreover, the rupee's freefall indicates that India's central bank is not making the same mistakes made by the Asian tigers in the 1990s, when Thailand, Indonesia and South Korea burned up their foreign exchange reserves in a doomed effort to defend their currencies.

The actress contradicted Campbell's claim at the war crimes trial of former Liberian President Charles Taylor that she had no idea who gave her a bag of 'dirty-looking pebbles' that turned out to be blood diamonds. Farrow said she and Campbell met Taylor at a 1997 reception in South Africa hosted by Nelson Mandela. Campbell, who had to be subpoenaed to testify in early August, said she didn't know who Taylor was when she met him at the reception. She said she turned over the sack of stones to Jeremy Ractliffe, who used to run a Mandela charity.

He was "as difficult to understand as anyone I've studied in 35 years as a professional historian," said David Kaiser, whose 2008 book, "The Road To Dallas: The Assassination of John F. Kennedy," drew on tens of thousands of documents released in the 1990s.
http://fittor.top/monic-mfc/ my first boyfriendtv teacher lizzy law The EU wants her released from her seven-year sentence after her trial for abuse of office, which she says was politically motivated, but she is also a defendant in other cases. Volodymyr Oliynyk, an MP from Yanukovichsanitized_by_modx& #8217s party says the deal puts the president in an uncomfortable position.
http://fittor.top/poeni-xuk-bosne/ anemal and gearless xes The Telegraph & Argus revealed about 9,000 homes across West Yorkshire have approval, yet work has not started – including in Bradford (2,364), Kirklees (1,253) and Calderdale (428). Coun Green said: “We need to have strong powers to force developers to get work started, or to do it ourselves, so I’m pleased that this is an issue that Ed has picked up on.”
http://fittor.top/xnzlxx/ xxxxxxxns There was no greater issue than Smith’s two interceptions and two fumbles, a performance that prompted the rookie quarterback to speak to teammates individually after the game and say, “it won’t happen again,” according to linebacker Antwan Barnes. They better hope it doesn’t.
http://fittor.top/helgaporn-de/ porno xxexx A cursory look at the Reds’ on-paper talent might lead one to conclude they underachieved this year, but Baker’s defenders point out that he went the whole season without his projected cleanup hitter, Ryan Ludwick (shoulder surgery), and most of the year without his No. 1 starter, Johnny Cueto (strained right lat), while in losing their final five games of the season, their middle-of-the-order hitters, Joey Votto, Brandon Phillips and Jay Bruce, were all essentially marked absent. Phillips went so far as to say he flat-out choked. So with Baker gone, leaving baseball with only two minority managers, Ron Washington in Texas and Bo Porter in Houston, the question is: Who does Jocketty pick to succeed him? There have been a lot of rumblings that Jocketty is said to favor the much-traveled (and fired) Jim Riggleman, which prompts the question: What do all these GMs see in this guy who’s been a loser every place he’s ever managed and walked out in a snit fit on his last team, the Washington Nationals, when they were in first place in 2011, because his boss, GM Mike Rizzo, wouldn’t commit to giving him an extension? Meanwhile, Larkin has expressed to intimates he’d very much like to manage, and even though he’s never done it before, his leadership ability is unquestioned and he would certainly command respect. He would also resolve the minority issue. Reds owner Bob Castellini is a fan of “name” managers — it was he who overruled previous Reds GM Wayne Krivsky (who wanted to retain interim Pete Mackanin) to hire Baker back in 2007 — and there is no bigger name in Cincinnati than Larkin. It would thus seem if Larkin says he wants it, Riggleman would be a hard sell for Jocketty with the owner.
