At the 2019 Skoll World Forum, we hosted a series of live conversations—led by award-winning journalist Emily Kasriel—with social entrepreneurs, innovators, and thought leaders on Facebook Live, off the main stage. We heard about a broad range of timely and important topics, ranging from the role of storytelling in social change, to conscious capital and building for climate-resilience.
