Vision

In the developing world, social entrepreneurs and local communities are leading initiatives to meet their needs and improve their living standards. Their best practice examples and social technologies contribute to implement sustainability at local level. Sustainable Pangea is tool to help strengthening and replicating such social innovation initiatives. It serves local communities, social entrepreneurs, public bodies and civil society organisations.

Objectives

– Give visibility to social entrepreneurs and local communities leading sustainable initiatives in Latin America, facilitating cooperation amongst them

– Establish a dynamic platform for reproducing best practices and transferring social technologies

– Raise awareness of the importance of sustainability and promote it globally

Long-term goals

– Strengthen international cooperation links and create a support structure to promote local initiatives

– Create an insightful and quality-controlled pool of social ideas, technologies and projects, acting as a bridge between social entrepreneurs and potential investors or donors

– Involve Universities, research centres, NGOs and public organisations (national and supranational) to promote best practices and sustainability
