These changes have made eradicating global poverty more challenging than ever. In a comprehensive guidebook, Laina Raveendran Greene, Audrey Tan and Lizzy Hawkins--three passionate female social entrepreneurs--share their thoughts on the feminisation of poverty where women end up as victims and show that when enabled, women can take on the powerful role of change agents. They challenge us to move beyond the unconscious bias of seeing women as capable of receiving only microfinance loans to viewing women as capable of receiving larger funding, and present data that shows women are good investments. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe authors lead us on a journey of hope where they encourage us to solve problems empathetically; embrace grassroots human-centric solutions; initiate systemic change; support a world of purpose-driven businesses, and help build a new paradigm of capitalism where people and purpose are more important than a sole focus on profit. Incorporated in the book is a careful examination of the old models of charity and donations juxtaposed against the promise that purpose-driven social enterprises hold in eradicating poverty.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSustainable Impact: How Women Are Key to Ending Poverty offers eye-opening insight and practical advice that seeks to motivate everyone to help make a better world and do our part to eliminate global poverty.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Laina Greene,Audrey Tan,Lizzy Hawkins\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1543740898\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781543740899\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Partridge Singapore\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/05\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 186\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.92lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.50d","brand":"Laina Greene","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48453783290111,"sku":"9781543740899","price":28.57,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_18404ac6-04c1-400a-baed-0abff8d42abc.jpg?v=1777302286","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/sustainable-impact-laina-greene-9781543740899","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
