Contextualizing Changemaking: Case Study on Ashoka Fellows in Asia
Abstract
Decades of international development have taught us the importance of contextualization in sustainable social change. Learning from failed adoption and scaling of one- size-fits-all services, we now know the complexity of localization: while the principle seems obvious, much of the context is deeply embedded in social norms that determine the best strategy to create social change. This insight is core to Ashoka’s founding principle that the most impactful solutions come from the context in which the problems exist.
