We want to support and inspire individuals to move from concern to action around the issues of poverty, human rights, social justice, and the environment.Join the Tactics of Hope Facebook Page http://facebook.com/pages/The- actics-of-Hope-Join-the-Social-Entrepreneur-Movement/35065477874Get the Tactics of Hope book on Amazon.com http://www.amazon.com/gp/produ t/1601090145The recent election of President Barack Obama has given hope to millions and inspired them to address the many local and global challenges at hand. For the past two years, Wilford Welch (a U.S. Diplomat, professor of international business, and acclaimed author) and David Hopkins (a recent college graduate and aspiring social entrepreneur), have been writing a book and creating a website to inspire and support those very people who want to join this movement. This video outlines the core concepts of their book "The Tactics of Hope: How Social Entrepreneurs Are Changing Our World". It explains what social entrepreneurship is, why it has the power to change the world in profound ways, and how people can join the movement. Most notably, the video highlights two inspirational and exemplary companies that have been celebrated by Oprah, Jay-Z, former President Bill Clinton, National Geographic, MTV, CNN, PBS, and NBC. The first, Playpumps, provides fresh drinking water to thousands of people in Africa via an incredibly simple, innovative, and scalable system, and the second, Kiva, facilitates peer-to-peer loans via the Internet to allow impoverished people develop their own businesses. The Tactics of Hope website centers around a tool called "My Circle", which is designed for individuals, at no cost, to determine what social or environmental causes theyre passionate about, where in the world they want to make a difference, and how they can do so. It's easy to use and provides a great way for people to quickly and easily donate to, volunteer for, or collaborate with non-profit and for-profit organizations around the world.The creators of the Tactics of Hope are encouraging others to watch their new video, pass the link on to others, and learn more about how to get involved by reading The Tactics of Hope on Amazon at http://www.amazon.com/gp/produ t/1601090145 and by visiting http://www.tacticsofhope.org.About the BookThe Tactics of Hope: How Social Entrepreneurs Are Changing Our World is a groundbreaking book that supports and inspires individuals looking for ways to make a difference in the world.

Harnessing nature's energy entrepreneur of this week is an inventor from Eritrea, who's coming up with gadgets that protect the environment and make money.At a small workshop in Keren, Eritrea, Seyoum Goitom is busy at work. The 38 year old is one of the most knowledgeable mechanics in this town. Seyoum taught himself nearly everything he knows about repairing gadgets. After experimenting with recycled bits and pieces Seyoum has discovered a new talent -- inventing. In no time at all Seyoum also created a welding machine and this lawn mower. It's especially handy as it tidies his compound without leaving behind a mess. Seyoum hasn't been able to sell any of his creations even those that are popular with his little fans. But he isn't discouraged; he hopes his next project will not only make him some money but help save the environment as well. About 95 % of Eritrea's trees have vanished, mostly because of a growing population - and probably also because the environment simply wasn't a priority during Eritrea's thirty-year war for independence from Ethiopia and subsequent border conflicts. Believing he can make a difference Seyoum got funding from the Dutch embassy for his latest idea: a solar powered cooker. Its not finished yet but he was happy to show Africa Journal the work in progress. As it uses the suns energy, he's sure the cooker will convince some Eritreans to stop cutting down trees for firewood. Seyoum Goitum's ultimate dream is to mass-produce his inventions one day, so that Eritreans can also have a taste of home made technology.
