Description
We believe profits and sustainability aren’t mutually exclusive.
This course will help you understand how to solve an issue in your local society using sustainability goals as drivers for business.
Throughout the course, we will help you understand the history of social entrepreneurship and how it came to be. After understanding the evolution, we connect sustainability goals to the discipline to show that starting a business can be for a good purpose and good for the environment.
In each section, we will connect the two chosen SDGs to help understand the impact you can how and the measures you can use to see if your impact has been reached.
We’ll help you understand the connection between entrepreneurship and sustainability and how to think like an entrepreneur. Giving you all the knowledge you will need to identify your own problem and brainstorm solutions to solve them. Teaching you everything you need, from seeing a local issue to tethering funding from investors. We’ll also be guiding you through challenges and opportunities that may arise towards solving global issues.
We are looking forward to seeing what issue you will solve, and how you will solve it.
join us on the journey towards a sustainable world
