    Brilliant.

    To me, “Social Entrepreneurs: Pioneering Social Change,” is an expression of what Desmond Tutu discussion about through his description of Ubuntu, “We say a self is a self through other persons. You can’t be human in isolation. You are human only in relationships.”

    I feel richer as a human after seeing your film.

    Wonderful film with a fantastic range of clips, topics. Of course we hear some of the most prominent voices again, but that serves the function of legitimacy, then the rest of us can go on doing the work, and link up to the renowned actors.
    Thank you!

    This brief video sums up the importance of the social enterprise movement and how it can tackle global social issues. The video gives hope that these problems can be solved by working together. These special entrepreneurs need support, for a humorous look at the many shapes and sizes support comes in check out Ventureneers video.

    I looked up Social Entrepreneurship after my Economics teacher brought it up in a lecture, and something immediately resonated in me when I watched this. Fantastic video.

    Muhmmad Yunus started with a $27 bet, changed the world and won the Nobel Peace Prize. Fantastic It didn’t take much for him to get started and it doesn’t take much for us either. Just a desire to make a difference, a choice and an action step along the path. There’s a step you can take along this path too.

    There are much more such entrepreneurial thoughts:
    - Search for…
    ashoka, social innovators for broadcast
    -
    give a “Thumbs Up” if you like this hint :)

    How can we empower youth to make safe schools for all sexual orientations? I’d like your thoughts at OUTstanding Lives.org .

  21. Export2Africa says:

    Micro-Finance is one of the best thoughts since sliced bread…because it helps those who have been forgotten by the private sector, governments and institutions.

    There was no such option for rural communities in anticipation of initiative like this came about.

    thank you
