Future Learn - Social Enterprise: Turning Ideas Into Action, Middlesex University Business School

Future Learn - Social Enterprise: Turning Ideas Into Action, Middlesex University Business School

Last year I enrolled on the Future Learn Social Enterprise 'Business Doing Good' course with the Middlesex University Business School and the Jindal Centre for Social Innovation and Entrepreneurship.

 

I  thoroughly enjoyed the course and my participation with all the other candidates.

I also enrolled on the second course Social Enterprise: Turning Ideas into Action.

Lesson 3.11, all participants were asked to submit a video about their social enterprise and enter the International Social Innovation Challenge 2016.

I won my social pitch and would like to congratulate Palma Milicevic and Emma Butler who were awarded consultancy and support.

Thank you to all the candidates who entered and voted for me.

Many thanks to Dr Sara Calvo, Jeremy Wade and all the other mentors.

Best wishes to everyone with their social enterprises.

World Fair Trade Day 2017 - Dubai, United Arab Emirates

This years World Fair Trade Organization campaign was 'Agent For Change', Human Chains for Fair Trade and the Planet.

I am very grateful to the beautiful ladies at the Dubai Business Women Council who very kindly modelled the Agent for Change posters for me.

I also managed to go to Jumeirah beach and conduct an impromptu beach photo shoot near the iconic Burj Al Arab.

Best wishes to all fairtrade producers, artists, supporters, volunteers and friends around the world for being the voice and change for social, environmental and trade justice.

RESPECT, STAY STRONG, PEACE AND BLESSINGS!

Why?
