New KFPE International Advisory Board

A newly established International Advisory Board strengthens the strategic direction of the KFPE. The advisory board includes experts from a variety of backgrounds and countries.

KFPE Advisory Board

In 2024 the first four members of the International Advisory Board have been elected:

  • Dr Edward Asiedu, University of Ghana Business School
  • Dr Prudence Nare Makhura, South Africa National Research Foundation
  • Dr Medinat Malefakis, ETH Zurich
  • Prof. Dr Sourabh B Paul, Indian Institute of Technology

Members of the International Advisory Board are elected for a three-year term. Over the next few years, the Advisory Board will reach its final composition of seven experts, including voices from the younger generation. We look forward to an enriching collaboration and stimulating discussions with the members of the International Advisory Board.
