A HUGE shout-out to two Seeples COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY - SIPA Admissions Blog Heres a HUGE shout-out to two recent grads who were named to the Forbes Social Entrepreneurs 30 Under 30 List. Tsechu Dolma MPA 15, and Sabrina-Natasha Habib MPA-DP 16. From Forbes.com: Dolma is a native Tibetan, and founded the Mountain Resiliency Project to address the poverty and food insecurity prevalent in mountain communities. They are working to create stronger communities from within to combat the already apparent impacts of climate change. Habib cofounded Kidogo. Kidogo is working to improve access to high-quality, affordable, early childhood care and education in East Africas urban slums. They use a hub and spoke model in which best-practice early childhood centers (the hubs) provide childcare and preschool services. The hubs also serve as models for the spokes, which are childcare micro-businesses run by local women as part of a social-franchising program. Congratulations to these two amazing women!
