Blessed Unrest: How the Largest Movement in the World Came Into Being and Why No One Saw it Coming

A presentation on video by PAUL HAWKEN, followed by an open discussion moderated by the Director of the Centre for Social Innovation, TONYA SURMAN.

Is there a convergence of the environmental and social justice movements?

Paul Hawken, author of Growing a Business, The Ecology of Commerce and Blessed Unrest was a keynote speaker at this year's annual conference of the Business Alliance for Local Living Economies (BALLE) in Berkeley CA.

We are delighted to present the video of his talk in association with the Institute Without Boundaries (IWB). This event also celebrates the launch of the Institute?s 07/08 progam.
