All You Need is Hope: Transforming a School and Helping a Village | Eric Livny | TEDxTbilisi

Are large government or donor-driven development programs the best way to change the world? Economist and educator Eric Livny tells the story of how one simple intervention changed the future of a community, and explains how great results can be achieved by individuals armed with vision and a big heart.

Eric is an economist who has worked for 20 years at the interface of economics education, research and policy. He is the founding director of the International School of Economics at Tbilisi State University (ISET) and the affiliated ISET Policy Institute (ISET-PI), the first university-based economic policy think tank in the South Caucasus. Eric helped design and managed the implementation of numerous research projects focusing on a broad range of issues.
