In celebration of Women’s History Month, we are spotlighting the stories of three women entrepreneurs at the helm of enterprises in the NESsT portfolio in Central & Eastern Europe and South America.
NESsT, a global impact organization dedicated to supporting high-potential social entrepreneurs that create meaningful employment and income opportunities in their communities, is proud to announce the appointment of Dana Gilland to the NESsT Board of Directors.
We spoke to our portfolio managers and entrepreneurs in the region to uncover the lessons learned and insights gained from three years of close-up acceleration and collaboration in the region catalyzing wide-ranging, innovative business models and supporting the financial independence and stability of people from diverse backgrounds.
NESsT koncentruje się na poprawie autonomii ekonomicznej, ponieważ poprawia ona autonomię społeczności. Jakkolwiek "różnorodność i integracja siły roboczej" jest wykorzystywana do rozwiązania tego problemu, nie rozwiąże go. Musimy dążyć do równości i sprawiedliwości w zatrudnieniu.
Poznajcie Victora. Victor jest miedziorytnikiem w rumuńskiej wiosce Brateiu. Kiedyś w jego wiosce było 200 romskich miedziorytników. Teraz zostało ich tylko sześciu. Mówi, że jest dumny z tego, że może nadal praktykować rzemiosło swoich przodków i w ten sposób zarabiać na życie.

W lutym minęły dwa lata od inwazji Rosji na Ukrainę w 2022 roku.
As of February 2024, an estimated 3.7 million people are still displaced within Ukraine’s borders, and 6.5 million refugees are in countries such as Poland and Romania. The reality is, although it has been two years since the crisis began, millions of refugees in the region still need support to find dignified work that allows them to feed their families.
