What is the Changemaker Institute? The Changemaker Institute is a student-led venture accelerator, meaning that it supports students with ideas for social change that can evolve into sustainable ventures and potential careers. The Institute serves Tulane graduate AND undergraduate students both who have an idea for a new social venture and who want to join a venture’s leadership team. The Institute pairs students with expert mentors and exposes them to new workshop facilitators each week; a process through which students develop, test, and launch their ideas through experiential learning. Student ventures can expand an existing project or program or create a new organization, they can develop into non-profits or for-profits; the Institute supports any idea with a strong social mission that can scale and be sustainable.

Check out recent Changemaker Institute alumni, Anoop Jain, speaking at TEDxTU about how his venture, Humanure Power, which recently won the Global Citizenship Prize of $100,000 in funding to expand its work in India. For more information, please contact: Rebecca Otten
