SEED Awards 2010: Now Open
The SEED initiative is calling for applications from small-scale and locally driven enterprises around the globe for the 2010 SEED Award for Entrepreneurship in Sustainable Development.
The Award scheme addresses social and environmental entrepreneurs with the potential to contribute to poverty eradication and environmental sustainability advancing a green economy in their countries. Up to 35 winners will be selected to benefit from a customized support package including skills development, business support services, access to networks and high level profiling. Though entrepreneurs from around the globe are invited to apply, those from South Africa, Burkina Faso, Egypt, Ghana, Kenya, Rwanda and Senegal are especially encouraged to submit proposals.
The SEED initiative is hosted by the UN Environment Programme and counts amongst its partners the UN Development Programme, the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) as well as a number of governments including those of Germany, USA, South Africa, and India just to name a few.
For those interested in being considered for the 2010 Awards, please refer to the SEED website for more information and to apply online.
