History in the making – the first Social Enterprise World Forum (SEWF) to be held in an emerging economic country.

SEWF 2019 will be held in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, from 23rd – 25th October.

Ethiopia’s position as one of the fastest growing economies in the world, as the ‘cradle of civilisation’ and with an estimated 55,000 young, enthusiastic social entrepreneurs ready to celebrate what they are doing with their global counterparts, makes it a fascinating SEWF host country.

A series of study tours before and after the main event will be available to delegates to experience first-hand the social enterprises that are making a difference in today’s Ethiopia.

The Social Enterprise World Forum is an international event for social enterprises from all over the world to come together, share wisdom, build networks and discuss how to create a more sustainable future. The event attracts social enterprise practitioners, social entrepreneurs, policy makers, community leaders, investors, activists, academics and more from all across the globe.
