Social Enterprise as Peacebuilding
Social Enterprise as Peacebuilding
by Megan-Lee Meredith & Harold Tessendorf
What does it look like to do business in a way that helps mend the world?
In Social Enterprise as Peacebuilding, the authors gather stories, practices, and hard-earned wisdom from organizations working in communities near and far. Their focus is simple, though not easy: how enterprise—when rooted in care for people, place, and purpose—can become a quiet force for peace.
Koinonia Farm is among the communities reflected in these pages. Not as an idea, but as a lived example of what it means to grow food, welcome neighbors, and sustain a shared life through honest work.
This book will speak to those building something—whether a small venture or a larger organization—and to anyone wondering if business can be both practical and hopeful at the same time.
A good read for the journey.
