How would you define freedom? | Asma Mansour | TEDxAmsterdamWomen

Asma was born and raised in a traditional Tunisian family where a child has to obey the rules and follow the path of life by parents. She says: “Tunisian society has it’s diseases. It is a country with lots of pressures and no possibility to create or be yourself.” At the age of 15 she began to write about society, her perception of life, the women in her family and their roll in the community.

Asma Mansour is cofounder of the Center for Tunisian Social Entrepreneurship. She’s passionate about grassroots innovation, economic progress, youth and women participation. During her time at university she was involved in the Junior Chamber International (JCI) and AIESEC and ran university-level campaigns. In 2010 she founded the People’s Movement for Human Right’s Learning (PDHRE) and a year later she began focusing on social entrepreneurship and innovation, based on the need for sustainable economic reform. In 2011 Mansour created the Center for Tunisian Social Entrepreneurship to lead Tunisia in a more sustainable, citizen-oriented direction that generate positive social change with youth at the forefront of decision-making and innovation.
