Changemakers, together.
As a result of learnings from 40+ years driving the social entrepreneurship sector, we, at Ashoka, understand that deep, long-lasting, transformational systems change requires collaboration. Over the past years, we have bet on the power of gathering leading changemakers driven by a common goal in the same room, to analyze, develop and implement collective actions. Through our co-learning experiences, we help social entrepreneurs and community members cultivate the knowledge, skills, aptitudes, and mindsets to build meaningful collaborations.
Building on the natural appetite of our community members to work with one another and on our understanding of the main challenges we face as a society, Ashoka has prototyped a series of collaborative initiatives in fields like gender, health, biodiversity, migration, funding systems change, and more. These initiatives come in various shapes, sizes and geographies, and involve a diverse array of actors.
Impact
The Ashoka Community team has hosted learning experiences and topic-specific collaborative experiences for the past four years. 361 participants engaged in our learning experiences around Multi-Stakeholder Collaborations. Our topic-specific and ecosystem initiatives engage an average of 2000 stakeholders per year (policy-makers, social entrepreneurs, corporate leaders, other decision-makers). From the topic-specific and ecosystem initiatives we have released more than 20 knowledge products, position papers, policy papers or recommendations in the past 4 years.
When asked how insightful and impactful the experience we offered was for their work, the average answer is 8,75 out of 10 and 95% of participants state that the experience helped them strengthen their vision towards an "Everyone a Changemaker" world.
