In a country like India, where challenges such as poverty, illiteracy, and inequality still persist, the idea of social entrepreneurship is more relevant than ever. But what drives someone to tackle these monumental problems head-on? This book is a journey into the heart of social entrepreneurship, exploring the motivations and intentions that spark individuals to become agents of change.The book sets the stage for the inspiring stories of those who dare to make a difference, uncovers the personal and psychological factors behind entrepreneurial intent, and creates a conceptual model that connects these motivations with the real-world challenges of social entrepreneurs. It then uses data and analysis to explore what really drives social entrepreneurs and what factors can either propel or hold them back. Finally, it explores the practical implications of these findings—how can educators, policymakers, and future entrepreneurs use this knowledge to make a lasting impact? Whether you're an aspiring changemaker, a policymaker, or someone curious about how entrepreneurship can change lives, this book takes you on an engaging journey into the world of social innovation, showing that a better future is possible through the power of intention and action.
