By participating in the Entrepreneurs Now program, you will gain first-hand exposure to local NGOs and SMEs within an emerging economy.
This program emphasises meaningful learning through real-world experience, international exposure, and cultural immersion during a six-week project abroad. The impact of the program lies primarily in your personal and professional growth, as well as the value you create through your work, your ideas, and the cross-cultural perspectives you bring into the organisations and communities you engage with.
