Americans for Informed Democracy is a network of young people in the U.S. concerned about our individual and collective roles in the world. We believe that the U.S. should act responsibly and collaboratively to solve our greatest challenges. We also believe that we, as young people, have the power to build a better world. The majority of our more than 50,000 members are college or university students. Our members also include high school students, graduate students, recent graduates, foreign students, professors and university staff. We are non-partisan, and we encourage students to understand and take action on issues in ways that speak to them.
Under the able editorship of Dr. Zachary Kaufman, an upstander in his own right, this pathbreaking book demystifies social entrepreneurship, namely, citizen-inspired initiatives that may have as much potential to overcome the challenges burdening victims of atrocities and other assaults on humankind as social media has demonstrated in revolutionizing how people communicate in the 21st Century.”
