They provide solutions to the needs of a developing global population. Trained and developed as professionals, some are fit to perform on a world stage as strategic thinkers and global managers, others are pillars of local economies, whether creating and maintaining the complex infrastructure in wealth creation or the simple water pipes, drains and roads necessary for poverty alleviation.
