Past Programmes
The first of these mini-MBA cohorts ran in Rawalpindi in 2012, built on a survey of street cobblers carried out the year before across Punjab and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. The programme was proved in smaller towns and cities before it was brought to Karachi. Since then the mini-MBA has also been taught in Yemen and Egypt, its thinking has been carried into Numu and the agile workshops before it in Türkiye, Jordan, Angola and Ethiopia, and it has been rebuilt several times on what the cohorts taught us.
Since 2011
How the work got here
The whole arc is told in one place on our story: the 2011 street cobbler survey, the first Business Growth Workshop in Rawalpindi, the years spent going deeper in Karachi, the move into Yemen and Cairo, and the second programme that followed. It carries the reports and the press coverage that document each step.
The listing below is the part of the record that came across from our old events system, and covers 2019 to 2023. It is not the whole history. The fuller account, written as it happened, is in the blog, which begins in July 2012 with the survey the whole programme was built on.

Beyond the mini-MBA cohorts archive
What these cohorts were actually taught is set out under our approach, and the programmes themselves under our programmes: the mini-MBA for micro-entrepreneurs and Numu for young community leaders. What a participant can do by the end is on the learning outcomes page, and what the cohorts added up to is on the impact page.
The materials used in every edition listed here are free to take and run under Steal Our Stuff. To fund a cohort or start a chapter where you are, get in touch.
