  • Ernesto Sirolli got his start doing aid work in Africa in the 70's -- and quickly realised how ineffective it was. In this funny, challenging and passionate talk, Ernesto shares his deep insights into sustainable economic development, and how entrepreneurs can be truly supported to live their passions.
    About TEDx, x = independently organized event
    In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)

    Awesome speaker! I'm Zambian so I totally relate to what he said. The Bwana thing is so funny but true, as well as how people come in and do something but it isn't always sustainable

    Asking the native! Asking the front line employees? Asking!
    We all seem to make the same mistakes. 2 trillion dollars of misguided aid that causes 2 trillion dollars worth of damage- who would or COULD be grateful for that?
    Thank you for a superlative talk which puts its finger firmly upon a major problem. I love this guy.

      Debra vast majority of this aid goes to the elite and the rulers and their families and cronies - the average men and women never benefit from it, the west knows this and they use it to buy influence - I am an economist, i know this very know.

    He's certainly learned his lesson. Don't be imposing although you mean well. Human beings don't react well to that sort of thing. They tend to view you as condescending and insulting and pretty soon they stop talking to you.

    Intelligent people with money don't need any help, they have the social connections and know-how to build themselves. If they don't, one or both are likely lacking. Intelligent people with no money are a better fit for that isolation he talks about (half way through), and unintelligent people with money are the people they're not meeting. That's really him, because there is no way Maoris in Australia are going to have connections with the Japanese fishing industry. It was his connections that did that. He says not a single business is begun by only one person, I believe that.
    I won't deny his entrepreneurial skill, I guess it's just contentious what is skill and what is pre-existing resources in analysing success. I see many problems in the west, but I also see exporter economies in the west. That's in some ways a form of sustainability. After taking into account trillions of aid I see importer economies in Africa, they don't have those pre-existing resources and I'm not talking about land or minerals and definitely not manpower. I also see a people who don't want help, this is most evident in Ethiopia, which has wisely denied food aid in an attempt to become self reliant on their own agriculture.
    That is how you build sustainable economic development.
    After they can feed themselves, they'll have the funds to leverage themselves without the burden of debt, then they'll have the money and wisdom to build. This isn't the easiest path and it's the one with generally the least pay out. Denying handouts and the patronising hand of the regressive cosmopolitan is difficult, but being spoon fed isn't helping anyone. Making things easier for those who struggle might redistribute opportunities to them, but it doesn't redistribute earning. What's actually required from the west is virtue, namely, patience.

    someone said Bill Gates should see this, I say Richard Branson . Why? Bill Gates is struggling with the old system and not figuring it out. Branson is trying to do a new system but does not know how to build it. I refer to his Team B. he has an idea that it needs to be changed but as Ernesto says he has not figured out the "we" yet. and he does not know the qualifying question. He is just filling his ego and failing miserably as ego development is not what is needed.

    I disagree. I believe that they are very compatible just not with the standard tools that are being used to do such things. If you take a small percentage from all the companies that you help as long term support of the project then you have massive potential income that can then have a portion returned to the investors of the innovation company. This wouldn't be an investment that will make you tons of money but it will make some and improve everybody lives. I want it done all over the world.

    Summary: Tells a funny and compelling story about how other countries made things worse in Africa. Says you have to just shut up and listen to people's passion and great ideas and just provide entrepreneurs with the support needed to make their visions come true. Great talk about how to support entrepreneurs, and I'll bet he's good at supporting entrepreneurs. It sort of felt like an ad for his outfit since
    However, the talk tells us zero about sustainable development and capitalism isn't going to heal the planet.

    "There is no need for economic development; everything is provided. Therefore one should understand that everything belongs to Kṛṣṇa, and with this idea, one may take prasāda. However, if one interferes with the allotments of others, he is a thief. We should not accept more than what we actually need. Therefore, if by chance we get an abundance of money, we should always consider that it belongs to the Supreme Personality of Godhead. " Hare KRSNA.
