WORLD Economic Forum founder Klaus Schwab recently wrote: “Today’s consumers do not want more and better goods and services for a reasonable price. Rather, they increasingly expect companies to contribute to social welfare and the common good.”
The envisioned outputs of this year’s most influential projects recognised by the international nonprofit Project Management Institute (PMI) exemplify such contributions. Indeed, these projects made it to PMI’s shortlist because they “lean into social impact”. Of the 259 projects cited by PMI, five grabbed my attention due to their relevance right now and their potential for adaptability in different countries. I’m sharing them here in the hopes that existing or developing collaborations between and among the government, business community, and civil society might find some use for them.
