Social Entrepreneurship in the Age of Atrocities: Changing Our World deftly outlines how young global peace entrepreneurs are successfully fostering smart and agile solutions to some of the world’s most intractable problems. Gone are the tired images of doves and peace signs, rightfully replaced with laptops and smart phones. This is a must read for all young leaders who strive to have real impact in their careers, as well as the old guard if they care not to be left behind by the winds of change.
How can anyone make a difference in a world marked by genocide, civil war, refugee crises, disease epidemics?

Their insight into challenges of sustainable fund-raising, organizational design and management, and skepticism about young Western volunteers can inspire and instruct others who hope to address suffering and injustice through initiative, analysis, and commitment.”
