David Begbie is co-founders of Crossroads Foundation, where he directs the interactive and immersive simulations to give participants an experience of needs like urban poverty, refugees, HIV/AIDS, and blindness through the Global X-perience programs.
When combined with reflection, such experiences inspire students and corporate leaders alike to take action to address global needs.
Crossroads also hosts an annual refugee simulation at the World Economic Forum, in Davos, Switzerland.
He has received the Hong Kong Red Cross Humanity Award (2007) and worldwide recognition for his devotion to being a “voice for the voiceless”.
