            In the 2050, estimation of  90% of the world's population will have
            access, owing to a combination of economic growth in the developed
            world. Artificial Intelligence and Fifth Industrial Revolution are set to
            make a huge contribution to the world economy. However, it is crucial
            to recognize that global socioeconomic challenges remain unresolved.
            The issues such as  automation will eliminate the necessity for human
            supervision.  Another  issue  such  as  the  significant  income  disparity
            between the wealthy and the impoverished, as a minority of the global
            population  continues  to  hold  the  majority  of  the  world's  wealth.
            Additionally,  the  growth  in  global  population  contributes  to
            environmental pollution, particularly in industrial areas. For centuries,
            this  socioeconomic  issue  has  persisted  due  to  the  lack  of  a
            comprehensive  global  mechanism  to  address  these  problems.  As  a
            result, there exists a gap, with no centralized global socioeconomic
            framework  in  place.  Realising  the  problems,  Asif,  a  PhD  student
            propose  a  socioeconomic  model  that  is  called  GESE.  GESE  is  a
            framework that can be used to design a socioeconomic ecosystem at
            the  global  level  involving  the  cooperation  of  all  parties  including
            government,  corporate  and  industrial  sectors,  NGOs  and
            communities.  It  is  a  medium  for  providing  (supply)  and  taking
