Dear Mr. Harish, Here is my suggestion. This idea can be further refined by discussing with people experienced in this area. Topic: Social entrepreneurship in the area of accessibility / social sensetization / counselling / rehabilitation / improving quality of life Background: There may be several individuals, like me, who are more than willing to work in the social domain or possibly make it as as a key purpose in their lives. I think that it is extremely important to help in enabling this segment of individuals to take a significant step in overall scalability. This could greatly enhance geographical reach as well as cater to many more aspects. Following points / aspects can be covered in this regard. - Providing informational guidance regarding setting up a social entrepreneurship venture, ongoing operations and compliance, etc. - Creating a pool of individuals who are looking to work full time or part time in this area and have a drive to make a positive contribution. This can be for individuals who are looking at this as an employment opportunity, as well as for those who see this as something much more than employment. - Create a pool of mentors and guides who can provide a need based guidance during various stages of such a venture. - Create a platform / formal or informal group where all such individuals can connect and get started. In many cases people may be given a generic advice of getting associated with one of the existing organizations. While this could work for many cases, I see following limitations in that. - Any individual who has such an inner drive is very likely to have an idea about what and how he / she may want to do, which may not be what the nearby organizations may be doing. - Geographical location of such organizations may be a limitations for many individuals. - Individuals who are already leading these organizations and have established certain way of functioning may not appreciate any significant change in it. - Individuals would be functioning at different levels and would have different types of expertise, which may not be satisfactorily used. - It is not a scalable approach. Thanks.
