Mapping the Social Investing Space: Failure and Criticism
Join a candid discussion from the frontlines of managing social change as Kate Cochran, and Premal Shah, President of Kiva, speak with Jonathan C. Lewis, Founder of MicroCredit Enterprises and the Opportunity Collaboration, on how social enterprises have weathered the “negative publicity” storms originating from SKS, Unitus, Kiva, Compartamos and Shorebank. How does negative blowback affect the social investment climate? What are learned lessons, what can we do differently and what does it mean for the future of social capital?
