The Declining Influence of Big NGOs
The influence of big international NGOs is declining, and in this episode, we explore how they are losing ground to social media influencers, and podcasters. We analyze how these emerging voices resonate with audiences and shift perceptions on crucial policy decisions, including ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) and DEI (Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion). With insights drawn from data provided by Sigwatch and 996 Advisors, we reveal the shifts in advocacy campaigns and discuss the critical need for corporates and governments to rethink their stakeholder engagement strategies. Failure to adapt could lead to increased scrutiny and exposure in this rapidly evolving landscape.
