 About the organisation Ashoka - Changemakers - About the changemakers´fast track

"EVERYONE A CHANGEMAKER"

"Ashoka’s Changemakers® is the world’s fast track for social change. If your destination is changing the world, you will get there with Changemakers: charting your best route, learning detours to roadblocks, getting the fuel you need, and meeting fellow travelers who can help you. No matter where you are starting, where you are going, or how impatient you are to get there, this community of problem solvers, disruptors, and innovators has built a fast track for action that will support and guide you, every step of the way.

Changemakers is a global online community that supports everyone’s ability to be a changemaker by inspiring, mentoring, and collaborating with other members of the community at every level of changemaking. Changemakers hosts collaborative online competitions to identify and connect the best social innovators and implementers. Participants compete to surface the most promising solutions, and then collaborate to refine, enrich, and implement them. Changemakers builds on Ashoka’s three-decade history of transforming the citizen sector by building the largest association of leading social entrepreneurs in the world."
