From Stories to Systems: My Journey as a Social Entrepreneur

Join Ei Pwint Rhi Zan, co-founder of The Third Story Project, as she shares her journey of building a social enterprise that has created over 110 children’s books and distributed more than one million copies across Myanmar. This session explores how storytelling can heal children in crisis, the challenges of sustaining impact during conflict and displacement, and the balance between mission and financial sustainability. Participants will gain insights into using narratives for systems change and be invited to collaborate, support, and adapt these lessons in their own contexts.
