Entrepreneurship in the territories: is it the right time?
WHO ARE WE LOOKING FOR?
We are looking for a Social Entrepreneurship Volunteer with some international work experience to join a team of designers, researchers and changemakers worldwide. Ideally, you are comfortable working on innovation and entrepreneurial projects, and most importantly, bringing innovation methodologies, ideas and ways of working to a broader team. The current fifteen-person team at the iDE Innovation Lab have been working together for many years, so this is a rare opportunity to join a well-established team working on a broad range of projects with a social innovation focus in Asia, Africa and Latin America.
WHO WILL YOU BE WORKING FOR?
You will be working with the in-house social innovation lab of iDE called Innovation Lab located in Asia and Africa, with a mission to practise, coach, and promote design and innovation processes as a co-creative, power-shifting problem-solving approach to address complex systemic challenges by understanding user needs, motivations, and behaviours and developing new interventions to power entrepreneurs.
The iDE Innovation Lab also functions as a strategy and innovation consultancy in focus areas of water, sanitation & hygiene, climate change (clean energy, conservation), agriculture, and maternal health & nutrition. Over the years, we have worked with a portfolio of international development organisations such as Care International, Hellen Keller, USAID, UNICEF, World Bank Group, Plant and Food Research, Save the Children, and SNV.
iDE is a global non-profit organisation spanning offices in 14 countries, employing over 1,000 people directly, and indirectly enabling income and opportunities for our rural audience of focus through market-based approaches across different sectors. Find out more about iDE here!
