The engaged global community of social entrepreneurs that Ashoka has fostered helps each one of them to have more
impact than would have been possible individually.

Ashoka Around the World
A Closer Look at Everyone a
Changemaker™
Ashoka is the world’s leading
organization for social entrepreneurs
and changemaking. The organization was
founded in 1980 in an effort to create a
world where every individual feels
empowered to create positive
systematic change in society. We believe
the most powerful force in the world
are social entrepreneurs, who use
innovative ideas to tackle today’s most
pressing social problems. In the past 30
years,Ashoka has elected 3,000
leading social entrepreneurs
as Ashoka Fellows in over
70 different countries.
Ashoka works with young
people, institutions, companies,
and individuals to multiply the
number of Changemakers in
our world. By working with leaders in all
fields we are able to develop an
ecosystem within society that supports
the change created by our fellows and
also catalyzes new generations of
changemakers. Integrating our
organization and creating programs in
numerous fields has allowed us to
become the largest community for
changemaking in the world. At the heart
of this community are our Ashoka
Fellows who lead and inspire change.
Ashoka defines the impact of our
fellows as the system change that results
from their ideas and networks that we
help them create and support. There
are a number of key areas in the society
that our fellows impact. Current, 54% of
our fellows have changed market
dynamics at a national level within 5
years of being elected. Through
execution of their innovations 57% of
our fellows have also contributed to
changed national policy
within five years of
election. Our fellows are
also successful and
impacting socially excluded
populations with 54% of
them managing to achieve
national impact for marginalized groups
within five years of being
elected.
On top of the impact they create,
Ashoka Fellows are highly independent.
Many achieve business-social
congruence through a for-profit element
of their innovation that provides capital
for their organization. The example that
the fellows set is also infectious. Their
innovations cultivate cultures of
changemaking and open up
opportunities for current and future
generations of changemakers.

Ashoka Greece
Creating a Nation of Changemakers
Social innovation represents a
compelling model contributing to a
better economic and social
development path in Greece. We
believe society will begin transforming
with leading individuals driving change,
an environment that allows them to
flourish and expand their solutions, and
a network of institutions, teams and
alliances across the social and private
sectors that empower and support
citizens and young people to tackle
challenges in their communities.
Ashoka began its launch activities
January 2014, and continues to build a
local and international network of
partners. Ashoka and the Robert
Bosch Stiftung launched a
partnership to support social
entrepreneurship for employment
in Southern Europe, including
Greece. The Hellenic Initiative is a
leading partner in this alliance for
Greece.

Greece: An opportunity for Changemakers
- a letter from the Launch Director
This is a crucial moment in Greece. There are many social and economic
challenges that need solutions, and they are growing faster than existing
institutions can respond or solve them. People are creating new networks
within the citizen sector to launch their own solutions, but also to adopt
new, inclusive processes for addressing needs and solving problems.
Through grassroots initiatives and entrepreneurship, people are proving to
themselves and others that they can take action and transform their
communities.
Greece has an opportunity to create a whole new framework for society.
While individual entrepreneurship and social sector organizations have
been valuable in addressing specific challenges and delivering basic services,
new connections throughout society and a culture of collaborative
changemaking are needed to amplify effective, empathetic and innovative
solutions that create systemic changes in society. Greece needs long-term
solutions that address the root causes of problems, change patterns and
create new alliances in society, and are ready to expand to the national
level.
With investment and support from partners in Greece and Europe, and key
members of the Greek diaspora, Ashoka can play a significant role in helping
build trust around Greek changemakers and accelerating their impact. With
Ashoka’s support, these changemakers will create momentum towards a
Greek society in which every person can take action to build teams and
collaborate to solve social challenges.

Launching Ashoka Greece
The First Six Months
Bring Global Innovations to Greece
Ashoka Greece and the Agricultural University of Athens, with the support of The Hellenic
Initiative and Robert Bosch Stiftung, hosted a gathering March 27 on new models to improve
access to nutritious food for vulnerable populations, featuring Ashoka Fellow Guillaume
Bapst, from France.
In Greece, individuals, families and groups have been affected by the economic recession with
inadequate access to enough food, or enough nutritious fresh food, particularly in urban areas.
Solutions to this issue must address both immediate access and offer new models that create
long-term, mutually beneficial relationships that empower people across the food supply chain
to work together. The gathering included a public panel and an invitation-only stakeholder
discussion on the topic of access to healthy food, with local partners and stakeholders

Guillaume Bapst is revolutionizing the way low-incomehouseholds access and purchase food. In an attempt toimprove the food distribution system in France, whereaccess is often slow and bureaucratic, choices arelimited, and quality and nutritional value are low,Guillaume has built a network of solidarity groceryshops. His national network of social groceries includes200 to date, that aim to distribute food to low incomepopulations with a minor financial participation as"clients" not "beneficiaries". Guillaume was elected asan Ashoka Fellow in 2006.
Guillaume shared his experience and
insights for developing a system to help
low income individuals and families have
access to healthy and affordable food and
support for further economic
empowerment. A representative from

Boehringer Ingelheim Hellas, and SAP Hellas to source innovative solutions for social change in Greece.
At the close of the competition, Ashoka organized a Changemakers Day, and invited the teams of the competition
winners, finalists, and other notable projects. Over 20 individuals from the private sector attended, including the
competition partners, to facilitate sessions, mentor the project teams on their models, next steps and potential
partners, and to build connections through commitments (facilitating introductions to key partners, offering in-
depth consultative sessions or capacity-building sessions in the next months, etc).

Ashoka Greece and Ashoka U organized a 2-day
institute on May 20-21 to empower administrators,
faculty, and students from Greek universities to bring
social entrepreneurship to their campuses and create
meaningful programming around social innovation.
During the institute, teams from 8 universities heard
from several Greek and European social
entrepreneurs regarding their social mission and
experiences with social enterprise. Ashoka Fellow
Marie Trellu-Kane shared her experience creating
Unis-Cité, which mobilizes young people aged 16-25
for a 9-month full-time community service program.
Unis-Cité stands for “All United for the Community,”
and is one of its biggest and most innovative NGOs
in France. The success of her initiative convinced the
French government to create the first Civic Service
National Agency in 2010 to scale-up her model and
foster a citizenship spirit among new generations of
young people. The French civilian youth service
legislation will engage 30,000 youth this year.

Over the last 15 years, Marie has designed a model to make citizen engagement a normal step in young peoples’ lives and has thus created the infrastructure to help them become social changemakers.
As thousands of young people continue to dedicate periods of theirlives full-time to social and environmental organizations, Marie nowpositions her association as a genuine experimental lab dedicated toinvent new ways for youth to commit to society and to create thetools for a new generation of changemakers.
Educators within Ashoka’s global network, from 4 Ashoka U Changemaker Campuses, joined the Institute
both in person and virtually to share best practices for implementing innovative learning programs for
social impact.

Innovation Institute, May 2014

Participants from all universities collectively identify the essential competencies that
undergraduate students need to drive forward the Greek economy and society, and to
succeed in today’s changing world: empathy, creativity, systems-analysis, and resilience.
These skills can by applied by students as they practice social entrepreneurship at increased
levels of sophistication. Empathy can be utilized to understand the needs of others, and the
innovator can act on those needs through direct service (e.g. feeding the hungry, building a
home, etc.). With creativity, the social innovator can scale and grow the direct service idea to
benefit more people (e.g. a network of service provider centers to feed the hungry or match
families to affordable housing).Through systems-analysis, the social innovator can discover
the root cause of the problem (e.g. policy limitations, etc.) to identify levers for systems
change. With resilience, the innovator can test new ideas and adapt to challenges as they
emerge, eventually changing the perception of society to understand a problem or a
population of people differently and to better understand their own role in the solution.
Ashoka has quietly given philanthropy a new dimension: it has shown how to invest successfully in pattern-breaking, powerful
ideas and the people behind them and how to do so early when a little makes an enormous difference.
-Peter Goldmark, Former CEO of the Interna5onal HeraldTribune
Nominate a Fellow
We learn of candidates in two main ways: we actively look for them in fields ripe for change, and our community –
you! – continuously alerts us to social entrepreneurs for whom the Ashoka Fellow route may be appropriate.
If you are interested in nominating a social entrepreneur to the Ashoka Fellowship, we welcome any information
about a candidate and their work that you can provide. Ashoka recognizes that it cannot possibly source the
world’s leading social entrepreneurs on its own. Good nominators ensure that Ashoka receives a constant flow of
promising candidates as well as an invaluable perspective on the current innovation in the sector. We depend on
you to guide us to the hidden gems and unrecognized visionaries out there! We thank you in advance. Please also
read through the five Ashoka Fellow Selection Criteria carefully to make sure the nominee fits our understanding of
a leading social entrepreneur.
