Donné Cameron is the Co-CEO of VSO, a global organisation that harnesses the power of volunteering to drive lasting social change. With more than 25 years of experience in international development, she has worked across Africa and beyond to advance people-centred approaches in various sectors including youth and women empowerment, health, education, and livelihoods.
A strategic and compassionate leader, Donné believes that active citizenship is the foundation of stronger, fairer societies. Her work champions the voices of young people—positioning them not as beneficiaries, but as leaders shaping their own futures.
