Entrepreneurial approach
The specific characteristic of the entrepreneurial approach behind Karuna Foundation is a strong focus on the ‘exit strategy’ right from the beginning. Moreover, thinking ‘out of the box’ during each step in the process and leading a result-oriented process with the drive and zeal familiar to businessmen.
Moreover, essential before the start of the project, is the mobilization of local resources (from the households, local, district and national authorities) to guarantee ownership and sustainability. And finally the willingness to accept the risks regarding the social investment, as well as the willingness to stop when ownership is not taken up by the target group.
