Zoe has been teaching about interconnected global issues for more than 20 years.

“Zoe Weil’s amazing book is a recipe for saving the soul of America, and beyond. Most Good, Least Harm is a Must Read Now for everyone who wants to do something to make our country and the world a better place for the next generation, as well for all of us who have not been as effective as we could be in improving the human condition. It is a recipe for creating a nation of responsive social heroes, who collectively can achieve the positive changes we all desire.”
~ Dr. Philip G. Zimbardo, Stanford professor and author of The Lucifer Effect
“I’ve enjoyed your entire approach. Sometimes I come to these things and it’s so guilt-ridden. It’s like if you leave this talk without guilt, you’ve missed something, and YOU didn’t do that at all. What you’re emphasizing is exactly your seven [keys to MOGO]: joy, what’s your value system, pick an option and fix it. So, thank you.”
~ Liz Winet, Southbend, Indiana, from College of the Atlantic (COA) talk in Bar Harbor, Maine on July 31, 2009
