COVID-19 has been a clarion call to our Ashoka Changemakers in South Asia. They have responded to the crisis in ways that go beyond resilience and move towards building a new balance, while bringing systemic change in critical gaps emerging across healthcare, education, human rights, economic development, environment and civic participation. We have selected 19 of the most critical changemaking ideas to share and find more ways of creating collaborative change.

Our support spans:

Community of change

We identify changemakers and communities that work in related solution spaces and connect them to each other for more gamechanging collaborations

Change stories

We share the inspirational stories of change to bring more awareness and understanding of the work being done, on the ground. This will be done through multiple initiatives, including our monthly webinar sessions, ChangeHours, a thematic conversation to action series focusing on collaborative changemaking and culminating in the Changemakers United Summit

Support

We also work with our partners to enable more support for the Changemakers. We would look at keep building this list of trusted partners to work
