SOCIAL ENTREPRENEURSHIP

Neither government, nor charity, nor traditional capitalism has been able to solve the world's hardest social problems -- poverty, hunger, ignorance, and environmental degradation. But a new approach has arisen that gives hope that there are new ways to deal with old problems. It's social entrepreneurship--using business methods to solve social problems. Social Entrepreneurship is still in its infancy and has a lot of growing up to do before it will have major impacts.
