Education and Capacity Building
SBE partners with universities, high schools and other educational institutions (formal and non formal learning programs) to integrate social business into their teaching, research and practice. We developed a Social Business Learning Program (SBLP) that can be tailored to Universities, NGOs and other organizations to build capacity of current and future social entrepreneurs. The SBLP is offered through a series of interactive workshops, which cover a total of seven modules designed by SBE. During the workshops, SBE often invites speakers such as social entrepreneurs and prominent personalities in the Social Business arena. In addition, SBE facilitates Social Business Competitions in the aforementioned institutions, as well as within corporations and organizations to foster the creation of new social businesses locally. We organize the Social Business Conference and other events on social business.
