Governance Activism for Today’s Challenges | Dr. Ross Rafahël | TEDxUniversiteitVanAmsterdam

This talk examines governance activism as a framework for addressing global challenges. It draws parallels between historical injustices like apartheid and present crises, encouraging active civic engagement through categories such as Activist Engagers, Informed Observers, and Apathetic Bystanders. It promotes meaningful change via structured activism, informed by sustainable development and governance principles. Dr. Ross is a Chartered Accountant and seasoned executive leader with extensive international experience across top firms such as KPMG, Deloitte, and EY. As CEO, he has driven strategic innovation and governance in diverse markets while also serving as an advisor and non-executive director across various industries. His global exposure in executive roles, alongside his work in diplomacy and high-level advisory positions, has shaped his approach to problem-solving and leadership. Dr. Ross’ deep understanding of governance, finance, and diplomacy allows him to bridge the gap between corporate governance and social accountability, inspiring new frameworks for effective global engagement. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
