More than ever before, the world faces several social and environmental challenges — often complex, multilayered, and with great impact on local and global communities and regions.
Social entrepreneurship welcomes changemakers to be strategic and creative in tackling some of these challenges.
In partnership with Libro Credit Union, the Entrepreneurship Practice and Innovation Centre (EPICentre) is launching the Social Enterprise 101 Coaching service to support students and community members working to start a social enterprise. The program will provide participants with coaching, resources, tools, and networks to help them build a thriving venture.
EPICentre also partners with Made it Happen podcast to feature local social enterprises. This collaboration will include a three-part series beginning on Nov. 15. The first installment features Half Step Away, which takes a personalized approach to music training to support the creative growth and emotional well-being of people of all abilities.
