Our Fellows have models that are globally unique and high impact: they are working on areas ranging from empowering older people and the disabled, treating malnutrition in Africa, providing global free education, to building mass movements of food growers and young coders.
Ashoka Ireland has elected 13 of Ireland's leading social entrepreneurs as Ashoka Fellows. Our Fellows have models that are globally unique and high impact: they are working on areas ranging from empowering older people and the disabled, treating malnutrition in Africa, providing global free education, to building mass movements of food growers and young coders. Beginning with a small base of Irish Fellows, Ashoka Ireland also looked to import the most innovative ideas and institutions from other Ashoka Fellows around the world. In 2009, the Localizer programme was launched to support incoming social entrepreneurs with market research, networking and fundraising meetings, office services, consulting services, access to Ashoka friends and advisory councils.
