Background

About David Gereda

I am a social impact strategist and bilingual public thinker working at the intersection of capital, community, and public value. With over 12 years of experience, I have led high-impact partnerships with multilateral organisations, governments, philanthropic foundations, and corporates — unlocking funding, visibility, and long-term value for initiatives across Latin America and Europe. From One Young World to COP28, I have worked across sectors to deliver transformative strategies — securing over $2 million in funding, managing regional investment partnerships, and advising on ESG narrative development and cross-sector engagement. I currently serve as Development Director at One Young World, where I continue to support global alliances, public engagement, and social impact partnerships. I also serve as Chief of Staff at The Abundance Circle, supporting the leadership team on strategic direction, external partnerships, and public positioning. I bring a cross-regional perspective, a diplomatic approach to collaboration, and a commitment to building cultures of abundance, trust, and generational relevance. Whether advising a corporate ESG team, supporting governments, or helping social funds shape their influence strategy, I focus on clarity, connection, and purpose. My work spans social impact investment, ESG storytelling, Latin America–Europe capital flows, and public engagement that drives influence across generations and sectors.
