SIF’s sixth Young Social Entrepreneurs (YSE) Programme will kick-start with a workshop in Singapore from 18 to 21 March. Participants this year include nationals of China, The Netherlands, India, Indonesia, Canada, Malaysia, Mongolia, Singapore, Thailand and Vietnam. Their social enterprise ideas and models are focused in addressing wide-ranging issues in education, arts and culture, economic development, healthcare and environment.
The four-day workshop will take the young changemakers through business clinics to pick up useful social entrepreneurship tools and knowledge from various industry leaders, dialogue with practitioners and policy-maker, learn from and exchange ideas with their peers. They will refine their business proposals before presenting them to a panel of judges on the last day of the workshop.
We invite you to join us and meet with the young social entrepreneurs at the following two events as part of the YSE workshop:
