Peace Building And Conflict: The Role For Social Entrepreneurs
Thu, April 15, 2010; 09:00 - 10:30
Ending conflict and building peace requires both political leadership at the top and energy and commitment from the bottom. Social entrepreneurs working in conflict zones and post-conflict societies often seek support for peace at the grass roots. What does it take to be effective in this setting? How do projects survive and can they be scaled up? How do you find partners and allies? This session focuses on locally-led solutions to conflict and the role that social entrepreneurs are playing in some of the most divided societies on earth.
