Social entrepreneurs and social enterprises are transforming lives and delivering positive change across Europe.
As interest in social entrepreneurship has grown, so too has the impetus to create a learning environment where it is encouraged and developed.
The British Council – as the UK's principal cultural relations organisation – aims to promote engagement between the UK and other countries on social enterprise and to share knowledge. We want to help more people throughout Europe to learn about social enterprise and to help develop the competences required for them to succeed as social entrepreneurs.
Our idea is to design and make available a blended learning programme in Social Enterprise. One in which social entrepreneurs and others across Europe can learn through the online delivery of content and instruction with student control over time, place, path or pace. This would be supported through a variety of country- specific 'classroom' and 'experiential' learning methods.
We want to find out what already exists, what demand there is for the product, what form it should take, and how partnerships and/or collaboration might work.
Please take just a few minutes to help us test our ideas and assumptions. To share your views visit the survey.
