On Thursday, February 21, 2013, starting at 6:15 PM, Dr. Zachary D. Kaufman, editor of Social Entrepreneurship in the Age of Atrocities, will deliver a book talk at the 2013 Ashoka U Exchange in San Diego, California. The event will be held at the Westin Gaslamp Quarter Hotel.
Dr. Kaufman’s talk will be part of a session featuring select new books on social entrepreneurship. Moderated by Christopher Gergen, Founding Executive Director of Bull City Forward and co-author of Life Entrepreneurs: Ordinary People Creating Extraordinary Lives, the session will also feature:
This splendid book is more than a primer on social entrepreneurship for human rights in the developing world. It is also a compendium of searing testimony about the immense practical challenges that idealistic changemakers can overcome by dint of their unflagging energy, incandescent visions of humanity and justice, and on-the-ground skills and resourcefulness. Zachary Kaufman has performed a great public service in orchestrating this admirable volume about how hope for the future can be vindicated even under the most unpromising conditions.”
