Entrepreneurs and Educational Leadership in Bangladesh  \nJill Sperandio  \nLehigh University, College of Education  \nAbstract  \nSocial entrepreneurship, with its focus on innovative leadership, mirrors current interest in leadership for change in the field of education. In countries where national governments lack the resources to meet the educational needs of their populations, social entrepreneurs can develop innovative ways of providing access to education, and innovative methods of delivering education, to disadvantaged social groups. This article uses studies of educational projects in Bangladesh to consider the range of social entrepreneurship and what can be done to encourage and nurture social entrepreneursin the field of education worldwide.  \nIntroduction  \nSocial entrepreneurship has become a universally embraced concept that is increasingly associated with education. National governments, including that of Britain, have called for the support of social entrepreneurs to meet the needs of disadvantaged groups that national budgets or social services have failed to help. Social entrepreneurship is seen by these governments as having the potential to renew interest in community action and non-formal education to solve local problems in increasing complex and rapidly changing societies (Danaher, Moriarity, & Danaher, 2003; Oyanagi, 2003) . In many developing countries (defined for the purposes of this article as those having low levels of economic wealth resulting in limited development of educational services), financially strapped governments are struggling to meet their goals of providing socially disadvantaged groups with access to education through publicly funded education systems. This has led to an increased willingness to let other groups, both for-profit and in the voluntary or non-profit sectors, develop alternative methods of offering education. To these governments, social entrepreneurship offers the potential of increasing the availability of education and of introducing innovations that may be adopted by the national education system to improve its quality and effectiveness.  \nA recent theme in educational research has focused on the ability of educational institutions and systems to adapt to a rapidly changing, technologically complex society. This research has considered issues of effective school leadership, of understanding the process of introducing and sustaining innovation within schools, and of guiding changes necessitated by changing social and cultural environments (Fullan, 1991,2001; Evans, 1996; Gardner, 2004; Senge, et al., 2000) . While the primary goal of this research has been to improve and develop public education, it can potentially inform educational development in the private and voluntary sectors. The research might be guided by experience gained in the voluntary and non-profit sectors, including the work of social entrepreneurs involved in innovative education-based projects.  \n© 2005 Current Issues in Comparative Education, Teachers College, Columbia University, ALL RIGHTS RESERVED 18 December 1, 2005  \nSocial Entrepreneurs and Educational Leadership in Bangladesh  \nThis article will examine the contributions of social entrepreneurs to initiating educational change in Bangladesh and the implications of their work for education worldwide. Studies of four projects undertaken by individuals and non-profit groups to enhance the educational opportunities of low-income children and women in Bangladesh will be described and analyzed for insights about the nature of social entrepreneurship in the field of education, and how it can best be utilized and promoted. The studies will be used to initiate a discussion of the contributions social entrepreneurs can make to the Bangladeshi goals for improving access to education for deprived groups, and to increasing quality of education throughout the national system.
