摘要：Social entrepreneurship is seen as an activity of organizations which are aware of the social problems around and have the intention to solve these, including an innovativeperspective. As such, social entrepreneurs are mentioned as individuals who contribute to the society’s benefit by creating social change in their community rather than working for their own profit. Poverty emerging as one of the most accelerating significant social problems with globalization is among the working domains of many social entrepreneurs who pursue their activities in order to solve this problem. Their working activities fill the needs gap in situations where governments and private sectors have inefficient or inattentive services. Social entrepreneurs’ perspective towards poverty is considered as important since they have a social mission in the solution, since they are innovative and since they provide sustainability by utilizing from different resources. This study will explore the social entrepreneurs’ different strategic activities with innovative perspectives on combating with poverty. Having this aim, the selected fellow profiles of Ashoka, the significant fund provider organization to social entrepreneurs, will be analyzed, in terms of how poverty is perceived among social entrepreneurs and what innovative strategies are implemented as a solution.
