Grand Challenges are society’s toughest problems—complex, persistent, and resistant to easy solutions. Addressing them is essential for humanity’s survival and prosperity.
I am obsessed with finding collective frameworks that address these issues, which are too vast for any single mind to solve and are deeply rooted in legislation, policies, social behaviors, and mindsets that hinder progress.
From my experience at the World Bank and in sectors like maternal health in Kenya, Earth science, finance, nursing, and mental health, I’ve developed models to help organizations and activists collaborate for tangible results. You can see some of my infographics that represent these models here.
Please pass this along to anyone considering doing a Grand Challenge or perhaps already involved with them. I would love to make their acquaintance! Also, I am planning a professional gathering in 2025 and would love to invite them.
