Mapping Your Impact: the Social Entrepreneurship Journey
re:Learn is a joint project between Trico Charitable Foundation, Social Asset Measurement (SAM) with the assistance of the Canadian Youth Business Foundation (CYBF).  The goal is to create a legacy of information about the social entrepreneurship journey that will drive the future success of the social economy, grounded in knowledge.

For Phase One, SAM worked with Trico Foundation to assess the areas of impact of their work, and CYBF undertook a literature review to understand current measurement and data management projects.  What will be displayed at this interactive booth are the indicators leading to those areas of impact.

For future phases to be successful, we are asking you, the social entrepreneur, do these indicators resonate with you?  Do you find them valuable?  Are there other indicators we should be considering?

Map your impact and help create the future for understanding the social entrepreneurship journey!

Mapping Your Impact: the Social Entrepreneurship Journey
re:Learn is a joint project between Trico Charitable Foundation, Social Asset Measurement (SAM) with the assistance of the Canadian Youth Business Foundation (CYBF).  The goal is to create a legacy of information about the social entrepreneurship journey that will drive the future success of the social economy, grounded in knowledge.

For Phase One, SAM worked with Trico Foundation to assess the areas of impact of their work, and CYBF undertook a literature review to understand current measurement and data management projects.  What will be displayed at this interactive booth are the indicators leading to those areas of impact.

For future phases to be successful, we are asking you, the social entrepreneur, do these indicators resonate with you?  Do you find them valuable?  Are there other indicators we should be considering?

Map your impact and help create the future for understanding the social entrepreneurship journey!

Finance Solutions Lab B) Environmental, Sustainable Food, Youth Education: Multi-sector Approaches to Complex System Change

The Finance Solutions Labs are bringing together an array of leaders in social innovation and fellow SEWF attendees to provide support to six organizations as they bring their system-changing initiative to fruition.

Not only do fellow SEWF attendees get a chance to help in the solutions, they will be able to learn from the process and apply those insights to their own work.

This Finance Solution Lab will tackle Environmental, Sustainable Food and Youth Education issues.

Feature Organizations: 

  • Alberta Ecotrust, Alberta – represented by Natalie Odd

Alberta Ecotrust plans to build an "eco hub" to address the lack of connectivity and collaboration among Alberta-based ENGOs. The eco hub would provide work, event and storage space for ENGOs that would provide financial stability and, importantly, the opportunity to meet with and discuss environment issues and strategies with ENGO colleagues from other organizations.

  • Localize Services Ltd., Alberta – represented by Meghan Dear

Localize is addressing the systemic needs that grocers and local food businesses have to have in order to allow local products succeed in mainstream grocery stores. Localize's core service is a shelf-labeling program which identifies local and regional food products to customers.

  • Galiano Conservancy Association, British Columbia - represented by Lia Chalifour

Galiano Conversancy Association is striving to increase opportunities for youth to lead by example through the creation of a hands on learning centre. The Galiano Restorative Learning Centre will connect urban youth with nature, and provide them an opportunity to grow and discover their place in the world.

Note: This session runs from 10:15am - 3:00pm  but breaks for lunch 12:30pm - 2:00pm.
