The criterion isn’t just a project blueprint; it's also the single standard by which judges globally evaluate Enactus teams at national and global competitions. Understanding the Enactus Framework, therefore, is essential for Enactus teams. It's a strategic tool that helps teams develop impactful projects and contribute meaningfully to a brighter future for all.

Finding the right community partners is crucial to the success of any Enactus project. By building relationships with local organisations, businesses, and key stakeholders, you gain valuable insights, resources, and support to amplify your impact. Community partners can provide access to target beneficiaries, help you understand the local landscape, and offer expertise that strengthens your project. By working closely with partners who share your vision, you can create long-lasting, sustainable solutions that are deeply embedded within the community. The stronger your partnerships, the greater your chances of success in driving meaningful change.

Enactus projects address social and environmental challenges through a business-driven approach. The Social Business Model Canvas is a valuable visual tool that aids in designing effective social business models.
