Belief makes us human. It makes the seemingly impossible, possible. It is the origin of purpose and action. Without belief, social entrepreneurs could neither envision nor create a more peaceful and prosperous world.
Yet, in the current zeitgeist, belief often gets a justifiably bad rap. In the name of belief, people deny climate change; justify violence; and perpetuate cycles of retribution.
We’ve made belief the focal point of our 12th Annual Skoll World WELCOME Forum to draw attention to its power to propel us forward.
Martin Luther King, Jr.’s dream was his belief that all people could be equal and enjoy the same freedoms. Nearly 50 years later, his vision lives on and continues to guide and drive us toward a better future.
We hope that you make the most of what promises to be a spectacular Forum—edifying and uplifting, and as ever, boundary-pushing.
With our shared belief in a better world; in “good people doing good things”; and in the possibility to change the unacceptable—we can all help “bend the arc of the moral universe toward justice.”

ON SOCIAL SOCIAL ENTREPRENEURSHIP The very act of believing creates strength of its own. BELIEF
We all share belief in a better, more equitable world for ourselves, our children, and generations beyond. This conviction drives us—often relentlessly—to find the most effective and innovative solutions that provide real and sustainable opportunities for people to achieve their dreams.
But belief systems have also instigated extreme prejudice, cycles of retribution, and challenges to social progress in communities around the world.
As we work together and collaborate across sectors, issue areas, and geographies, we are deliberately deconstructing negative belief sets, coming together to drive the best of what’s working in the world.
We believe social entrepreneurs and the innovators helping them drive solutions to some of the most pressing problems around the world hold the key to unlocking sustainable human progress.
Join us in exploring this complex and important theme at this year’s Skoll World Forum.

In the past, communities had no way to track or report industrial pollution. Ma Jun addressed this gap by creating tools for people to access information about the land, air, and water around them using existing government data. This has led to increased public participation in environmental governance, resulting in nearly 2,000 factories taking action to clean up their operations. The Institute of Public and Environmental Affairs (IPE) also promotes sustainable global supply chains by getting large corporations JAGDEESH RAO and multinationals like Apple, Hewlett PUPPALA Packard, H&M, and Gap to monitor the environmental performance FOUNDATION FOR of their suppliers. This innovative, ECOLOGICAL SECURITY encompassing approach to transparency allows people in China to play a central Securing common land role in improving the health of their ensures a better future communities, and helps people around for the rural poor the world make environmentally In India, many poor rural communities responsible consumer decisions. rely on publicly owned lands for their food and livelihood. Yet these lands have been managed poorly, leading to degradation and exploitation. Jagdeesh Rao Puppala has long promoted the idea that the wellbeing of rural communities depends on the balance of social and ecological systems. The Foundation for Ecological Security (FES) helps villagers secure community rights to publicly owned land and support regulations to manage it in a more sustainable and productive way. The result of this collaborative work has been higher-quality soil, water, and biodiversity, leading to improved agricultural productivity and economic security for the rural poor. To date, FES has secured community rights to nearly 4 million acres of land in India, providing communities a solid foundation on which to build local democracies, sustainable livelihoods, and better futures. ALASDAIR HARRIS BLUE VENTURES Building sustainable coastal communities Ten years ago in a coastal village in Madagascar, Alasdair Harris tested an elegantly simple model that put Blue Ventures on the map. He encouraged residents to take charge of their local fishery by cordoning off a small section of their octopus-fishing area for a designated period of time. When the area was re-opened, the community saw huge increases in their catch and incomes. Building on this success, local communities created Madagascar’s first local committee to manage and conserve marine resources. Since that auspicious start, Blue Ventures has helped replicate this model along thousands of miles of coastline along the Indian Ocean. Beyond managing SAFEENA fisheries, Blue Ventures has integrated family planning and health services into HUSAIN its livelihoods and conservation work, EDUCATE GIRLS showing the world that protecting the ocean can and should go hand-in-hand Investing in the promise of girls with improving lives. In recent years India has enacted policies and invested in girls’ education, resulting in dramatic gains in access to education. However, in many areas, community expectations and accountability for educating girls remain low—a majority of girls do not complete their primary education. Safeena Husain founded Educate Girls to ensure that girls in India’s most marginalized rural communities are able to achieve their full potential. Educate Girls partners with public schools; trains local champions for girls’ education; and mobilizes communities to create their own action plans to make education more accessible and accountable to girls. Since 2007, Educate Girls has grown from a 50-school pilot project into a large-scale effort reaching 1 million children in 7,500 schools. With plans to achieve even greater scale over the next few years, Educate Girls is preparing a generation of young women to enter the formal economy and help lift their families out of poverty.
