Social Edge is a program of the Skoll Foundation that was inspired by Jeff Skoll’s commitment to connecting people with shared passions. The site launched in June 2003 with the mission to:
1. Connect social entrepreneurs, their partners and allies to discuss cutting-edge issues shaping the field
2. Foster frank dialogue, mutual respect and a sense of community among all in the sector
3. Promote learning from the best, promising and disastrous practices
Social Edge has become a site where social entrepreneurs, nonprofit professionals, philanthropists and other practitioners of the social sector connect to network, learn, inspire and share resources. The site strikes a balance between the visionary and the practical, with its spirited discussions and online workshops and features. Social Edge remains committed to fostering frank dialogue, building mutual respect and creating a sense of community among those in the social sector.
