STELLAR CAREER TRAJECTORY

Born in Oslo, Mr. Solheim is a Norwegian diplomat well-known in the circles of international environment and development programmes. An active member of Norway’s Green Party, he has served parties, governments and international-level organisations.

Mr. Solheim was Norway’s Minister of the Environment and the Minister of International Development from 2005 to 2012. His commendable work during this period helped raise his name to the international level.

Seeing Mr. Solheim’s work as the Norwegian Minister of Environment, the United Nations chose him to lead its Environment Programme. From June 2016 to November 2018, the diplomat and former politician served as the Executive Director of the United Nations Environment Programme-UNEP. He has led many campaigns focusing on the environment and sustainable development. The vast experience gained over decades makes him perfect as a leader with a primary focus on execution.

WHERE IT ALL STARTED

Mr. Solheim’s story as an advocate for ecological causes started at his college, where he studied history, sociology and political science. During his college years at the University of Oslo, he became the leader of the Socialist Youth. After serving for three years as the youth wing leader, he became the party secretary of the Socialist Left Party.

Seven years after graduating, he became the leader of the Socialist Left Party. It is rare to see a rise of a young leader becoming a political figure at a national level so quickly. In 1989, he was chosen by the people of Sør-Trøndelag and sent to the Parliament of Norway.

As time passed, Mr. Solheim kept gaining popularity in the politics of Norway. After the 1989 election, he was elected to the Parliament of Norway again in 1993 and 1997. The leader has been known for his fact-based solid opinions, even if they lead to criticism.

On 17 October 2005, Mr. Solheim was appointed as the Minister of International Development as part of Stoltenberg’s Second Cabinet. Impressed by his work as the International Development Minister, the leadership of the national government appointed him as the environment minister on 18 October 2007.

AN INTERNATIONAL PEACE MAKER

The leadership skills of Mr. Solheim touched the lives of not only Norwegian citizens, but also the people of Sri Lanka. In 2000, he was granted a leave of absence from the Norwegian Parliament to become a special advisor to the Norwegian Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Sri Lanka.

In the upcoming few years, he emerged as one of the most well-known peacemaking figures in the conflict between the Sri Lankan government and the Tamil Tigers.

LEAVING A MARK

No matter what political party, government or organisation he served, Mr. Solheim left his mark wherever he went. An active political figure, organisations worldwide seek his advice on the matters of environment and sustainable development for his valuable thoughts.

Mr. Solheim has also written three critically acclaimed books: PolitikkErA Ville, Den Store Samtalen, and Naermere. Due to his extensive work for the environment and climate, he has been awarded with many prestigious awards.

The list of awards include TIME Magazine’s Hero of the Environment and the United Nations’ Environment Champions of the Earth Award. In October 2022, he returned to Sri Lanka after being appointed by President Ranil Wickremesinghe as his International Climate Advisor.

WPP established the WPP Foundation in India with a primary focus on improving the education apparatus and training for sustainable livelihoods. The Director General of the WPP Foundation, Rama, believes that education can improve lives considerably. With this as her guiding principle, the Education to Livelihood (E2L) programme was launched to target student retention, improve academic outcomes, develop subpar academic performance, work-related skill development, and entrenched social norms that hamper education. Since the establishment of the WPP Foundation in 2015, Rama and her team have worked tirelessly to identify their beneficiaries — children and their communities. Since June 2016, Rama has been operating the E2L programme, which covers approximately 20,000 students from 10 government-aided schools in uran, peri urban and rural geographies, of Mumbai and Delhi NCR and Haridwar. Rama elucidates that each child in this programme is supported for seven long years, right from when they join the 6th grade in their schools till they complete the first six months of their job placements through the livelihood programme at age 18. Moreover, she and her team work with students moving from primary to secondary schooling (11-18 years old) and guides them in the journey of choosing life goals for a secure future. Through teacher training and leadership programmes, she ensures that school authorities are empowered and involved in designing these programmes.

THEORY OF CHANGE TECHNIQUE AND OTHER INITIATIVES

Under Rama’s supervision, the foundation has hired various top educationists to create a unique curriculum. Resultantly, the Theory of Change technique was created, resulting in 96 percent class attendance and a dropout rate of only 3 percent. With the tremendous efforts of Rama, more than 600 kids have got work-ready training, and 70 percent of them have either received an industrial placement or continued their studies. Under Rama’s aegis, other initiatives like the Spoken English Initiative were also introduced. The programme aims to make first-generation learners fluent in everyday English and improve their communication skills. Similarly, under the Digital Learning Initiative, children build their DIY computers and learn about computer hardware and software using the KANO computer kit. Many students have learned to code and develop gaming applications.

ACCOMPLISHMENTS APLENTY

Rama envisions that WPP India’s CSR Foundation would help India’s underprivileged youngsters achieve better learning outcomes and take more informed career decisions. Rama’s efforts brought over 90 percent of students to school, which is far higher than the country’s. More than 70 percent of the youngsters who participated in the livelihood programme now have jobs or are pursuing further education. Also, through a 20-day intensive coding-based curriculum, the enterprise has doubled children’s ability to code. Even gender disparity among WPP students has decreased. Furthermore, children’s levels of literacy and numeracy have grown. In the last three years under Rama’s leadership, the WPP Foundation has achieved remarkable results acknowledged by government and business forums. It has also received several awards, such as the CSR Project of the Year Award in Livelihood at the India International CSR Awards; Best CSR Case Study at NHRDN-BimTech CSR Summit; Company with the Best CSR Impact Initiative at India CSR Summit; Special Commendation at Golden Peacock Awards for CSR; and Asia Responsible Enterprise Awards (AREA) for Social Empowerment for the Journey from Education to Livelihood Programme.
