In The World We Want, Peter Karoff presents a collective vision of
an ideal world. By sharing his experiences and through
conversations with more than forty social entrepreneurs, activists,
nonprofit leaders, and philanthropists who are changing notions of
'the human condition' in Africa, Asia, Eastern Europe, Latin
America, and North America, he describes how new partnerships and
approaches are reducing suffering and gaining greater equity for
people everywhere. These visionaries are engaged in a struggle of
sorts, and that conscious engagement-'the shoulder to the wheel'-is
a fundamental part of the world they want. The book weaves together
multi-sector, multidiscipline strategies, but-in large part-it is
about the power of human connection, reinforced by personal stories
of motivation and the human capacity for caring. Without ignoring
the institutional and cultural obstacles, and the courage needed to
face down the dark side of human behavior, Karoff shows how citizen
engagement and open source solutions could tip the scale toward a
better world.
