Skoll Awards for Social Entrepreneurship
Meet the 2010 Skoll Awardees.
The Skoll Awards for Social Entrepreneurship support social entrepreneurs whose work has the potential for large scale influence on critical challenges of our time: tolerance and human rights, health, economic and social equity, peace and security, institutional responsibility, and environmental sustainability. These issues are at the heart of the Foundation’s vision of empowering people to create a peaceful, prosperous, sustainable world.
The Skoll Awards provide later-stage, or mezzanine funding. In most cases, the grant is provided for core support to help organisations expand their programmes and capacity to deliver long-term, sustainable change.
