The first resistance to social change is to say it's not necessary.

The world needs more social innovations.

The biggest challenge is how to affect public attitudes and make people care.

Social change comes through people.

The public is mad, frustrated, but what the public wants is progress.

To be sure, no piece of social machinery, however well constructed, can be effective unless there is back of it a will and a determination to make it work.

Collectively, we activists are essential to advancing U.S. policy to help empower marginalized people to lift themselves and their communities out of poverty for good.

Anticipate charity by preventing poverty.

All over the world, social innovation is tackling some of the most pressing problems facing society today - from fair trade, distance learning, hospices, urban farming and waste reduction to restorative justice and zero-carbon housing. But most of these are growing despite, not because of, help from governments.

We need community action and policies to support healthy communities.
