ONGOING EVENTS AIESEC is the world’s largest youth-run organization, is the international platform for young people to explore and develop their potential to have a positive impact on society. In partnership with business and higher education, AIESEC has over 60 years of experience in developing youth into global-minded leaders. With a focus on building personal networks and exploring the direction and ambition of their future, AIESEC has an innovative approach to engaging and developing young people into the leaders needed today and tomorrow. To achieve its organizational goal, AIESEC often creates a wide range of programs, including social work, seminars, trainings and others. One of the ongoing events to gain benefit to all stakeholders of AIESEC UI is Social Entrepreneurship Project. Social Entrepreneurship is a project to raise society awareness, especially youth in Jakarta, of social business. Social Business is a new model of business that is newly emerged. What makes social business different with other models of business is that the profit from social business is used to fulfill clear social mission and make positive impact to society. What is a social entrepreneur, exactly? Social entrepreneurs drive social innovation and transformation in various fields including education, health, environment and enterprise development. They pursue poverty alleviation goals with entrepreneurial zeal, business methods and the courage to innovate and overcome traditional practices. A social entrepreneur, similar to a business entrepreneur, builds strong and sustainable organizations, which are either set up as not-for-profit or for-profit companies. AIESEC UI realizes how impactful social entrepreneurship can be in Jakarta. However there are still few people who recognize social enterprises in Jakarta despite the impact it can make to society. That is why AIESEC UI determines to introduce this business to society, so youth can be aware of what social entrepreneurship is and furthermore AIESEC hopes they can be inspired by what this business do and do the same thing for their society. This project is also made to engage more youth to AIESEC. Follow: @AIESEC_UI and visit www.aiesecui.org
