Do you have new models of social entrepreneurship and innovative solutions that could be especially useful to communities in Colombia? If they fall in the categories of collaborative Education, Health, Finance, Consumption and Production, why not submit your ideas and take up the ‘Ain’t No Need Challenge’?
In Colombia, almost 30 percent of the population, or 12 million people, live below the poverty threshold. Violence, displacement, natural disasters and the strict stratified social systems mark the country as the most unequal in Latin American countries in terms of wealth distribution.
The ‘Ain’t No Need’ Challenge is looking for solutions that take the principles of collaborative consumption to solve some of the social problems and build more connected, resilient, sustainable communities in Colombia. Find out more from the below video. Winners will have a chance to travel to Colombia to present and exchange their ideas to the panels. Upload your ideas by November 23:
