A podcast conversation on how social entrepreneuring can be “crafted” in response to gender-based violence.

Daniel Hjorth, Ulf G. Lindén Professor and Director of the Centre for Aesthetics and Business Creativity at Lund University, appears on the Entrepreneurship & Regional Development Podcast following his co-authored paper with Mollie Painter (Hjorth, D., & Painter, M. (2026). Crafting social entrepreneuring: intra-sectional possibilities in responding to GBV.)

In the conversation, Hjorth reflects on how social entrepreneuring can be understood as "crafted" practice: one that emerges through relationships, tensions, and lived realities. The article explores responses to gender-based violence (GBV) and highlights how change often happens through subtle, collaborative interventions rather than large-scale disruptive innovation.

The discussion also connects the research to broader questions central to Lund University’s work in aesthetics, creativity, and organization: how social change is shaped by everyday practices, and how entrepreneurship can be understood as an ethical, relational, and creative activity.
