My choice for my social role model is Shaffi Mathers. I recently saw his talk on corruption and how to help fight it. I decided it was especially relevant since underdeveloped countries are facing corruption such as brides everyday.
Shaffi Mathers was an entrepreneur in India, working for two major companies, until he realized the importance of a reliable ambulance service. That is when he funded an ambulance service, called 'Dial 1298 for Ambulance', completely free, going from a single ambulance to hundreds, and that number is growing every day.
Mr. Mathers is now fighting for public interest, namely transparency in government, and the fight against corruption.
I have contacted Shaffi Mathers by asking him: 'In your opinion, what are the steps to take to innovating underdeveloped countries?' I did this by becoming a fan on Facebook. I'm still waiting for a reply, and if he replies, I will post it on EVOKE.
