System Change: Meet the facilitators!

We are proud to introduce the two facilitators to you:

Giulia Sergi is the co-leader of Ashoka Europe Fellowship and the System Change module. She is also the Fellowship Director at Ashoka Italy, supporting Fellows in their system changing efforts since many years. Being personally engaged in fighting against organized crime, Giulia isn’t only an expert, but also an inspiring example of making change happen in many different areas of life.

 

Florian Rutsch is a co-leader of the Ashoka Europe Fellowship and of its system change, new leadership, and wellbeing modules as well as the ecosystem initiatives on funding and supporting systems change. He also co-facilitates the development of the newly established Elders Council and Catalyst 2030 initiatives. Having co-founded a global campaign inspiring young people to discover their own power for change, Florian seems to be igniting system changing potential within others, wherever he goes.

System Change Guide for Funders: What Social Entrepreneurs Say Works Best

This new guide "Seven Steps for Funding System Change" by Ashoka UK captures the perspective of social entrepreneurs to offer donors and investors a comprehensive roadmap for navigating the world of system change. It helps funders to maximize their impact by closely aligning with the needs of systemic leaders.

It's our contribution to support an ecosystem for system change and we would like you to be part of it! We have more to come very soon (please see our Ecosystem efforts for more information) and reach out to Florian Rutsch if you have questions or want to contribute!   Stay in touch and download the guide here!
