UC Irvine's Center for Unconventional Security Affairs (CUSA) presents
"How to Change the World" with David Bornstein the author of How to
Change the World: Social Entrepreneurs and the Power of New Ideas,
Bornstein tells the stories of people around the globe who are solving
many of the world's most intractable problems. Full of hope and energy,
exciting solutions and compelling characters, he shows how a growing
wave of "social entrepreneurs" - individuals with initiative,
creativity, savvy and determination - are reshaping the world for the
better. These individuals are successfully demonstrating that one person
with a powerful idea and a passionate drive to succeed can bring
positive changes to the lives of thousands or even millions. The New
York Times comments How to Change the World is, "must reading for anyone
who cares about building a more equitable, and therefore, more stable
world." The center's 2007 Human Security Award will be presented to him
at the event.
