INVEST Training started

18 aspiring social entrepreneurs among returning OFWs, their families and support institutions who are in the process of incubating community-based enterprises that will help not only themselves but also the marginalized in their respective communities have started their INVEST Training.

At the macro level, social entrepreneurship was introduced as a platform for public-private-people partnership towards sustainable local economic development where forced migration and poverty would have become history, consistent with the Sustainable Development Goals.

At the micro level, social entrepreneurship was tackled as a process of seeking, screening and seizing opportunities to provide sustainable livelihoods and quality services to returning OFWs, their families and other marginalized sectors in local communities.
