Ashoka
Overview
Ashoka is the global association of the world’s leading social entrepreneurs—men and women with system changing solutions for the world’s most urgent social problems. Social entrepreneurs are individuals with innovative solutions to society’s most pressing social problems. From its regional office in Cairo, Ashoka Arab World creates a competitive, entrepreneurial, and globally integrated citizen sector and develops the profession of social entrepreneurship. Ashoka currently works with 91 Ashoka Fellows located in Egypt, Jordan, Lebanon, Morocco, Palestine, Kuwait, Bahrain, Libya, Tunisia, the UAE and Saudi Arabia.
Ashoka has acted as a platform for social entrepreneurs and as an organization that spreads the culture of social entrepreneurship across the region. It has been doing so not only as enablers of social innovation, but as direct implementers who want to lead by example. Currently, Ashoka Arab World is implementing three projects in partnership with entities from both the civil and business sectors, as well as with, several Ashoka Fellows. These projects represent the Ashoka philosophy of taking innovative and sustainable approaches to remedying social problems in an effective way.
