African Social Enterprise Summit | 6th edition
Resourcing Impact: Exploring opportunities, gaps, and strategies for sustaining impact initiatives in Africa
African social enterprises and NGOs play a crucial role in addressing various socio-economic and environmental challenges across the continent. While this is widely acknowledged, understanding how they navigate their resource-constrained settings to address sustainable development challenges remains limited.
These impact-focused organisations often face constraints related to resources, hindering their ability to achieve sustainable impact at scale.
By understanding, attracting, and effectively managing resources, social enterprises can unlock new opportunities for growth, innovation, and positive change, thereby playing a pivotal role in catalysing the sustainable development of Africa.
The Sustaining Impact Summit (SIS) is an annual event aimed at promoting the sustenance of impact and impact-focused organisations in Africa. Conceived and directed by CUSP researcher Dr Adeyemi Adelekan, SIS brings together social enterprises and NGOs, alongside industry experts, policymakers, and representatives from local and international development organisations to explore how impact-focused organisations can sustainably resource their impact-related work, particularly in cases of limited or no external support.
