Notre Histoire
SEED a été fondé lors du Sommet mondial sur le développement durable de 2002 à Johannesbourg par le PNUE, le PNUD et l'UICN, en tant que partenariat mondial pour l'action sur le développement durable et l'économie verte. SEED est basé sur l'idée que la promotion de l'entrepreneuriat social et environnemental est essentielle pour un développement respectueux de l'environnement et socialement inclusif, ainsi que pour la réduction de la pauvreté.
Dans le cadre de nos programmes de soutien aux entreprises, nous travaillons directement avec des entreprises en expansion et des entrepreneur-ses en herbe afin d'élaborer des stratégies, d'optimiser et de récompenser les réalisations en matière d'entrepreneuriat éco-inclusif. Toutes nos entreprises participantes bénéficient d'un ensemble complet de mesures d'aide SEED, comprenant un soutien personnalisé pour le développement des affaires et des capacités, la mise en réseau et le profilage au niveau national et international.
En complément de nos programmes de soutien direct aux entreprises, nous offrons des programmes visant à créer un écosystème de soutiens et de défenseurs nécessaires au succès des entreprises en croissance. Nos activités de développement de l'écosystème renforcent un réseau mondial de prestataires de services d’appui aux entreprises locales et offrent des plateformes de coordination entre les principaux acteurs locaux, nationaux et internationaux. En encourageant l'engagement de multiples parties prenantes par le biais de ses programmes, SEED génère des instruments de politique, de financement et de collaboration qui multiplient les impacts sociaux, environnementaux et économiques de l'entrepreneuriat. Nous partageons les preuves de la valeur de l'entrepreneuriat éco-inclusif pour le développement durable avec les principales parties prenantes par le biais de publications et d'événements nationaux et internationaux.
Nos pays
Nous nous concentrons davantage sur le renforcement des capacités régionales en créant des centres collaboratifs qui consolident les partenariats et intensifient la présence et les activités locales des programmes SEED dans des régions importantes du monde entier. Nos SEED Hubs sont des étapes importantes dans la fourniture de soutien personnalisé aux entreprises et dans la promotion de l'entrepreneuriat éco-inclusif pour le développement durable.
