Perspectives
Understand the Room
Hosh’s starting point is the one he learnt early in life: understand the room before you try to change it. This is where that habit meets the public: the issues behind his work, the conversations he convenes and, in time, his own essays and talks.
In Practice
Engagement
A New Generation in the Room
As Chair of the Now Generation Network, he brings younger African perspectives into conversations on governance, leadership and the continent’s future.
Institutions That Last
Helping to establish the Khartoum Breast Care Centre gave Hosh direct experience of what it takes to turn an urgent need into a functioning institution.
Philanthropy as Partnership
He argues for giving rooted in partnership rather than transaction, and for philanthropy to complement public institutions rather than attempt to replace them.
