Co-sponsored by Columbia World Projects and the Tamer Center for Social Enterprise at Columbia Business School.
Please join Professor Damon Phillips for this special evening with the inaugural cohort of Obama Foundation Scholars Program, a new collaboration between the University and the nonprofit foundation created by former president Barack Obama '83CC. This event is an opportunity to hear from four civic leaders who will share their insights on social entrepreneurship and the impact they are making around the world. The Scholars will complete a one-year residency on campus at Columbia World Projects.
A networking reception will follow the discussion. This event is open to everyone across Columbia University and beyond, interested in social entrepreneurship and international development.
We look forward to hearing from the Obama Foundation Scholars:
