In memory of his Highness the Aga Khan: A legacy of leadership and commitment to civil society

By Linus Gitahi | 1mo ago

 

As we gather to mourn the passing of His Highness the Aga Khan, we reflect on the profound impact he had on countless lives, including my own. For over a decade, I had the privilege of meeting with him twice a year in his office at Aiglemont, France, during my tenure as CEO of Nation Media Group. These encounters were not merely meetings; they were transformative experiences that shaped my understanding of leadership, civil society, and the role of the media in fostering democracy.

His Highness was a beacon of wisdom and insight. Each meeting was an opportunity to engage in deep discussions about the challenges facing our society and the vital role the media plays in addressing these issues. He consistently emphasized the importance of engaging with the “intelligentsia” – the thinkers, the innovators, and the leaders who could contribute to building a better society. His belief in the power of informed dialogue was a guiding principle that resonated throughout our conversation.

A staunch advocate for free speech and democratic ideals, His Highness understood that a vibrant civil society thrives on open dialogue and the free exchange of ideas. He championed the independence of the media, urging us to uphold integrity and the truth in our reporting. Yet, he was also quick to condemn short-term, tactical approaches to media issues that could compromise these values. He encouraged us to think long-term, to prioritize quality over expediency, and to remain steadfast in our commitment to serving the public good.

What struck me most during our discussions was his unwavering commitment to uplifting civil society. He inspired us to engage deeply with the communities we serve, to listen to their needs, and to advocate for their rights. His belief in the power of informed, engaged citizens to effect change was not just a theory; it was a call to action that he lived by every day.

As we reflect on the legacy of His Highness, let us celebrate the values he championed: excellence, compassion, and a relentless pursuit of progress. His commitment to civil society and his fierce defense of democratic ideals will continue to inspire us in our endeavors. We must honor his memory by carrying forward his vision- by engaging with the intelligentsia, advocating for the rights of all, and striving for excellence in everything we do.

In the spirit of His Highness the Aga Khan, let us work together to build a better society, one that reflects the ideals he held dear. Though he may no longer be with us, his spirit will continue to guide us as we navigate the challenges ahead, reminding us of the power of leadership rooted in humility and a commitment to the greater good.

In his honor, let us commit ourselves to the principles he embodied and to the vision he so passionately pursued. Together, we can ensure that his legacy endures, inspiring future generations to strive for a world that is just, equitable, and filled with opportunity for all.

In remembrance of His Highness the Aga Khan, a true champion of civil society and a beacon of hope for a better tomorrow
