Course Description

Overview

Explore innovative approaches to poverty alleviation through Jacqueline Novogratz's TED talk on "patient capital." Discover how this pioneering concept differs from traditional charity, offering sustainable solutions for the world's poorest populations. Through a series of personal anecdotes, learn about the potential of supporting "bottom of the pyramid" businesses to create lasting impact. Gain insights into how this approach can generate sustainable jobs, goods, services, and restore dignity to impoverished communities in ways that commercial markets alone cannot achieve. This 20-minute presentation challenges conventional thinking on poverty reduction and presents a compelling case for long-term, sustainable investment strategies in developing economies.
