Dear service-learning colleagues,
The 2008 Global Social Entrepreneurship Competition (GSEC) is seeking college
and graduate students to enter a national business plan competition in which
students from around the world create commercially sustainable businesses
that address problems of poverty in the developing world. Competition
organizers have expanded the competition this year to include global health
plans. Submitted plans will be judged by their impact on quality of life in
developing countries, implementation feasibility, and financial
sustainability. Contestants will need to demonstrate how their plans will
impact population health, as well as how those health care benefits are good
for society. The deadline for preliminary materials is Oct. 31.
