[Social Change Central @SocialChangeAus]

On the third Thursday in November each year, the world comes together to celebrate #SocialEnterpriseDay, a global event that shines a spotlight on the incredible work of social entrepreneurs and their supporters. At Social Change Central, we’re using this day as an opportunity to acknowledge some of the individuals who are driving innovation, promoting social impact, and helping build an increasingly robust social enterprise ecosystem right here in Australia.

Today, we want to introduce you to some special people who have made a remarkable contribution to the Australian social enterprise scene. Some of them are social entrepreneurs themselves, while others lead crucial capacity-building organisations, deliver vital educational and enterprise development programs, or provide funding directly to social enterprises or initiatives that strengthen the overall ecosystem. And some do a mix of everything!

As we celebrate Social Enterprise Day, let’s remember that every one of us can contribute to this incredible movement in our own unique way. Whether you’re a social entrepreneur, a supporter, or simply someone who believes in the power of business to effect positive change, we invite you to join us in Australia’s growing social enterprise movement.
Happy Social Enterprise Day!

A small disclaimer: We reached out to numerous deserving individuals for this blog post, but only those who responded are featured. The list is by no means exhaustive – we know that there are COUNTLESS individuals out there creating impact through the vehicle of social enterprise. This post simply celebrates and acknowledges a handful of those who do important, impactful work but are rarely recognised for it.
