130 young people from ten Yorkshire schools came together in October for the NextGenLeaders Welcome Event — and left with the spark to lead real change in their communities. At NextGenLeaders, we believe in turning up — and in passion driving progress.

Becks Wheately, leader of our NextGenLeaders programme, joined researchers, community organisations, and practitioners at the West Yorkshire “JUST in Place” workshop, marking the launch of regional research activity for the Joined-Up Sustainability Transformations (JUST) Centre.

The EGRN is a community of academics sharing research to help our programme and shape future responsible leaders. This year’s conference, hosted by Srinakharinwirot University in Thailand, was held along with this year’s Enactus World Cup.

This year’s Enactus World Cup celebrated the 25th Enactus World Cup and Enactus’ 50tth anniversary! Taking place in Bangkok, this world cup brought together 30 countries along with their top student innovators.

Last Monday marked the start of the Enactus UK & Ireland universities programme. This fantastic launch took place at the Unilever London Headquarters, which brought together 45 students from over 15 universities across the UK & Ireland.

Enactus UK & Ireland was present at the International Entrepreneurship Educators Conference (IEEC), organised by Enterprise Educators UK and hosted by Manchester Metropolitan University.

NextGenLeaders, has been nominated for Community Organisation of the Year by the Leeds Compassionate City Awards! This nomination recognises our programme dedicated to cultivating the generation of responsible leaders.

iTwin4Good Challenge finals showcased the top student innovators as they pitched their iTwin-powered solutions, a fantastic display of the intersection of social entrepreneurship with technology and innovation.
