[The 17th Youth Workshop]
The Impact of Social Entrepreneurship
for Sustainable Development
UNITAR
CIFAL Jeju/Jeju International Training Center has been organizing the youth
workshop on Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) since 2013 to empower young
people to be an active agent for SDGs achievement by 2030. The workshop offers
a unique learning opportunity for both Korean and international students in the
Republic of Korea to apply the concepts of SDGs into practices and strengthen
their capacities to be a global leader through various workshop modules
including lectures, group work, discussion, presentation and field trip. The
theme of the 17th Youth Workshop is Social Entrepreneurship for sustainable
development, which is being underscored in response to the on-going global
health crisis. Social Entrepreneurship, a fast-emerging discipline that creates
social impact, has played a vital role to economic growth and inclusion in
creating jobs, providing innovative services and products, and promoting
sustainable future. The
World Youth Report by Department of Economic and Social Affairs, United Nations
(UN DESA) also reaffirmed youth social entrepreneurship as one of the essential
requirements to help accelerate the implementation of the SDGs. Through
non-profit and for profit enterprises, social entrepreneurs promote a broad
range of solutions focused on sustainable development. The impact of Social
Entrepreneurship is far-reaching from the use of ethical practices such as
conscious consumerism, impact investing, and corporate social responsibility
programs to systemic solutions to social and environmental problems. Through
this workshop, participants will enhance their understanding of Social
Entrepreneurship in the context of SDGs and pursue their leading roles to
achieve 2030 Development Goals.
