This year, as part of the Social Enterprise World Forum, the Challenges Group and the Scottish Fair Trade Forum are partnering on a Community Hub for Scotland. The idea is to bring together a local audience in Scotland, with a few from slightly further afield, to engage with a topic in the main event being held in Canada. When you sign up to the Eventbrite below, your details will also be passed to the SEWF21 team, who will allocate you a complimentary ticket to the entire SEWF event.

Increasing international trade based on social enterprise principles of ‘profit with purpose’ could be the key to realising Scotland’s goal to be a globally competitive, entrepreneurial, inclusive and sustainable economy that makes a positive contribution internationally.
