The Ashoka Support Network is a global community of committed leaders who share, support, and advocate for Ashoka’s values and vision, while unleashing their own potential as changemakers.
What is the Ashoka Support Network?
Ashoka offers a wealth of resources, but the most valuable are Ashoka Fellows— the world’s leading social entrepreneurs. The Ashoka Support Network, founded in 2004, is a community of +300 members who provide their expertise, financial support, networks, and contacts to accompany these social entrepreneurs across the world. By connecting and interacting with them, ASN members gain inspiration and empowerment to shape a better world.

Impact Report on How Ashoka Fellows Accelerate an Everyone a Changemaker™ World
How are Ashoka Fellows engaging individuals as changemakers? What strategies do they use to build partnerships that inspire both changemakers and solutions? How are they changing systems to create a world in which everyone can contribute, and therefore, thrive?
Every three years, Ashoka conducts a study to understand how its Fellows are driving lasting social change. This study shows how Ashoka Fellows shift mindsets, change policies, and activate others as changemakers. It also presents the 11 strategies Ashoka Fellows use to build a world of changemakers.
Ashoka is a wake-up call. I have learned that there are, actually, many opportunities to step into radical systemic change, to up my game, help shape better global policies and participate in shifting the dynamics of social inequalities, both in the social and in the business sectors.

It is a personal nourishment to have the opportunity of working with such inspiring people as Ashoka social entrepreneurs. They are a source of inspiration for my own life. They help me to improve my personal and professional journey. Ashoka is offering me this new journey.

When you become an ASN member, not only does the money you invest have a huge impact, but you become a part of the Ashoka network and an important piece of the puzzle. Just as much as you give, you get back.
Maite Arango
Former VP of Grupo VIPS and President of Ashoka Spain
I want to support social entrepreneurs and motivate our generation not only to take responsibility in theory, but also to act and work towards a better future.

Perrine de le Court joined Ashoka Belgium as Co-Director in September 2018. Together with Elena Arène she will lead the Belgian Ashoka office by sharing responsibilities among Ashoka Belgium's different programmes. Perrine has professional experience, both in the private sector (5 years at Regus, her last job) and with International Organisations like UNICEF & IMBEWU, where she has worked for over 10 years in Europe and in Africa. After an enriching experience at Regus, she was missing the passion and sense of purpose that working in the social sector gave her. She particularly enjoys coaching, talent development and creating a team spirit as well as building strong partnerships across sectors.
