There are many ordinary people doing extraordinary work to create social, environmental and economic value; often we do not even know about their great achievements. Last year, the Surya Nepal Asha Social Entrepreneurship Award (SNASEA) recognized five such winners for their achievements and encouraged others to follow these examples of individuals creating social, environmental and economic impac
t. The Award they received has made a huge difference to their lives and has paved the way for them to scale and attain greater heights. This year again, we announce the call for nominations/ proposal for, the first ever award to recognize the Nepalese social entrepreneurs who create value for PEOPLE, PLANET and PROFIT. We will bring those hidden heroes out to the public, award the best ventures and give all of our applicants the opportunity to join our network and promote their products or services. The vision of the award is not only to celebrate the hidden heroes for their great initiatives but also to showcase their ventures and the impact they have made. The Award will not just be a ceremony but a learning experience aimed at encouraging people to become ‘job creators’ instead of ‘job seekers’. The deadline is 10 September 2012 and individuals can apply or nominate deserving social entrepreneur/s.
