Reaching the SDGs and transforming towards a Social Economy: In-depth insights, lessons learned and barriers for Social Entrepreneurship across Europe
20+ national Social Enterprise networks and research institutions officially launched the inaugural European Social Enterprise Monitor (ESEM) survey this year. The survey is based on national monitors successfully performed by Social Enterprise UK, Social Enterprise NL and Social Enterprise Network Germany SEND e.V. the past 14 years.
In this session at ImpactFest we will:
1. Share and discuss with you in-depth insights, lessons learned and barriers for Social Entrepreneurship gained from the bottom-up data collected for national Social Entrepreneurship Monitors the past years;
2. Share how this in-depth data on social enterprise and start-ups has led and will continue to lead to important changes in policymaking, investment decision-making, increased visibility and understanding of the social enterprise model and its contribution to social innovation and the UN SDGs.

About me
I have been passionate about seeing a more equal world from the age of 8. I'm the founder of Sawa World. Sawa World uses a locally-led and innovative approach to end global poverty. We provide access to local solutions to employment that are found by youth living in poverty. The youth have used low-cost and local materials to start small-scale eco-businesses that quickly generate income and transform lives.
These easy-to-learn business skills, can be learned in 1-day and provide instant self-employment opportunities for other youth, while protection in the environment. Sawa World supports the SDGs Goal 1 and Goal 8.
