Glory to Professor Muhammad Yunus: Recipient of the Hillary Rodham Clinton Award
The Albukhary Social Business Journal (ASBJ) extends its warmest and most heartfelt congratulations to Honourable Professor Muhammad Yunus on receiving the prestigious Hillary Rodham Clinton Award.
Presented at Georgetown University in Washington, D.C., this distinguished honor recognizes Professor Yunus’s decades of transformative vision, pioneering microfinance, and lifelong commitment to using social business as a catalyst for human dignity, economic equity, and poverty alleviation.
"Your pioneering work in social business continues to empower people and demonstrate that business can serve humanity. May this honour further strengthen the global movement towards a more just, compassionate, and sustainable world."
A Legacy of Empowering Humanity Through Social Business
As the founder of Grameen Bank and the father of Social Business, Professor Yunus has redefined traditional economics by proving that business models can be structured primarily to solve social problems rather than maximize profit. His work has uplifted millions of vulnerable individuals and communities around the world, particularly empowering women and fostering sustainable economic self-reliance.
At Albukhary Social Business Journal, we remain profoundly inspired by his visionary leadership. His principles form the bedrock of our academic and institutional mission at Albukhary International University—driving our ongoing research, discourse, and commitment toward building a world of Three Zeros:
• Zero Net Carbon Emissions
• Zero Wealth Concentration to End Poverty
• Zero Unemployment through Entrepreneurship
With profound respect and admiration,
