How Business Can Drive Solutions to Social Problems | Carlos Rodríguez-Pastor | TED

Driven by the belief that businesses can - and should - invest in the communities around them, Intercorp founder and philanthropist Carlos Rodríguez-Pastor has built schools, pharmacies and a literal bridge to better serve Peru's growing middle class. In conversation with TED business curator Corey Hajim, he explores the immense possibility behind private-public partnerships - and his conviction that any individual can step up to create change.

    This make sense. If social issues are solved in a manner where the one solving the problem is able to generate a ROI, then provate players will jump on the opportunity. Moreover, with their efficiemcied and cost effective operations, they will be able to solve these problems at lower costs as well.

    您好,這是 Bing。我認為提出一個好問題通常會有好答案,但也要看問題的定義和目的。有些問題是為了尋求事實或知識,有些問題是為了探索想法或觀點,有些問題是為了激發創造力或想像力。不同類型的問題可能需要不同的答案方法和標準。例如,如果我要問您「您喜歡什麼顏色?」,這個問題沒有一個正確或錯誤的答案,只有您的個人喜好。但如果我要問您「藍色和紅色混合會變成什麼顏色?」,這個問題就有一個基於科學的答案,就是紫色。 我認為一個好問題應該是能夠引起興趣、好奇心、思考和學習的問題。一個好問題也應該是清楚、具體、相關和可回答的問題。一個好問題還應該是能夠幫助我們解決問題、創造價值、增進理解和改善生活的問題。如果您想學習如何提出好問題,您可以參考以下的資源 。 我希望我的回答能夠對您有所幫助。如果您還有其他的問題,歡迎再次與我聯繫。😊

    'Make someday today'... It's very impressive. As a Korean, I guess the most serious problem of our country is low-birth rate. Koreans are getting disappeared. According to the latest announcement from the statistical office, Korean birth rate per women is 0.84. We don't have even a birth per one woman. And the government noticed how serious it is. They has expanded various policies to boost the birth rate, but as you know it doesn't work to stop to go on a down trend. Honestly to say, I don't expect that the government can find out the way to boost the birth rate dramatically. I guess I should get involved in this issue as a individual, not just expecting the government to get this done. Thanks for this video. I could put a sense of urgency.

    He profits personally from every activity he participates using the resources of Interbank, he benefits personally by using the resources and $$$$$ of the people that deposit their $$$ and trust in the bank. To be fair, other bankers do the same like the Romero family at BCP, other bankers do the same in Peru, the US or any other country, as the Rothcild patriach once said "give me the control of a bank and I will write the laws".

    Business can best help solve social problems by going out of business. Business (apart from some worker co-operatives and the like) is purely in the business of extracting wealth from the working class and giving it to the capitalist class. Once upon a time business may have had some community responsibility, but not since the 1980's at the very latest.

    It is not the responsibility of business to be a solution for social problems. Business exists for one reason and only one reason. To make money. This video is better suited for Cuba, China, or North Korea.
