This Change Maker Ambassador Programme addresses the challenge of strengthening creative social entrepreneurship in Latvia. Although many cultural and creative initiatives contribute significantly to social inclusion, community cohesion and cultural diversity, their social impact is often not recognised or communicated through a social entrepreneurship perspective. Working with external stakeholders, participants will explore opportunities to bridge cultural and social entrepreneurship ecosystems, identify barriers to sustainability and co-create interventions that support impactful and resilient creative initiatives.
