Josefin Uhnbom, Social entrepreneur, founder of Food for Thought
Co-founding a company for education in Guatemala opened Josefin's eyes to how innovation and entrepreneurship can contribute to a positive development of society. In her former role as a board member of Social Entrepreneurship Forum she continued to explore this interest, while collecting knowledge and influences from many different sectors of society. Josefin has worked for Brottsförebyggande rådet, 4C Strategies and Red Cross Refugee Centre and also with ventures within the labour market and education at Folkuniversitet in Stockholm. Food for Thought is the result of Josefin's belief in social entrepreneurship, combined with her engagement in issues relating to exclusion, inclusion and empowerment. And a great passion for food of course.
In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
