Over the past 35 years, Ashoka International has created a vibrant network of more than 3,500 Ashoka Fellows who are currently implementing system-changing solutions to human and environmental problems in 93 countries across the globe. It has built an extensive knowledge base and is an international leader in the field of social entrepreneurship.

All that Ashoka is now bringing to Israel, with the goal of impelling Israel's social entrepreneurship talent and its active social arena significantly forward.

In the spirit of Ashoka International, Ashoka Israel means to foster collaborations with field leaders throughout Israel, the Jewish world and well beyond it. It will identify promising local visionaries and provide them with the tools, opportunities, and financial assistance they need – thus generating a force that can give titanic impetus to social initiatives in Israel – and worldwide.
