<h3 class="post-title subpt">Inspired by the legacy of our founder, Nelson Mandela, The Elders are marking Mandela Day 2014 with the launch of a new video series on ethical leadership.</h3><div class="quoteblock"><div class="quotetext"></div></div><p>&nbsp;<br>This Mandela Day, how will you be an ethical leader?</p>
<p>Every year on 18 July we celebrate Mandela Day, a global day to honour Nelson Mandela’s legacy and change the world for the better. Mandela wanted the next generation to take on the struggle against injustice, saying: ‘It is in your hands now.”</p>
<p>For Mandela Day 2014, the Elders pay tribute to their founder – who passed away in December last year – by asking what it means to be an ‘ethical leader’ today. In three new videos, <strong><a href="http://theelders.org/article/kofi-annan-leaders-are-there-serve">Kofi Annan</a></strong> and <strong><a href="http://theelders.org/article/hina-jilani-what-makes-ethical-leader">Hina Jilani</a></strong> reflect on how to lead with conscience and courage while <strong><a href="http://theelders.org/article/mary-robinson-whats-meaning-life">Mary Robinson</a></strong> gives her take on the meaning of life.&nbsp;</p>

<p>These videos mark the launch of a new Ethical Leadership series inspired by the values that Madiba embodied: justice, equality, compassion, and the power of collective action. In these videos, the Elders will draw on their experiences as global leaders and discuss the universal values we all share.</p>
