More and more social entrepreneurs are pursuing government partnership as a pathway to scaled impact and transformational social change. As they do so, they will inevitably encounter the realities of political transition: what happens when the political leadership that has championed the partnership is no longer at the helm or the system of government changes entirely? From the local to national level, political transition poses a risk as well as an opportunity that organizations need to take into account. This session will share lessons, insights, and tactics on political transition from Skoll Awardees, including Last Mile Health, CAMFED and Medic Mobile. Come hear from them and share lessons and questions of your own in this interactive session.
