Inspired by these contemporary issues and the astonishing actions of the youth in the region, the social business organizations working around Nobel Laureate Professor Muhammad Yunus and supported by the YY Foundation launched a program in 2020, “Create a brighter and Greener Future for East Africa Youth”, to tackle youth unemployment in the region through social business in an environmentally responsible way and to support social business from ideation to scale up.
The East Africa Impact Days are a moment in which the community bands together to present the impact of the program, showcase young green entrepreneurs' stories and initiatives that are creating a world of 3 Zeros with social business, and provide insightful and inspiring moments to learn about social business investment, growth, and acceleration.
