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 se concentrează pe îmbunătățirea autonomiei economice, deoarece aceasta îmbunătățește autonomia comunității. Oricât de mult s-ar folosi "diversitatea și incluziunea forței de muncă" pentru a rezolva această problemă, acest lucru nu se va întâmpla. Trebuie să urmărim echitatea și justiția forței de muncă.
Faceți cunoștință cu Victor. Victor este un fierar de cupru din satul românesc Brateiu. Pe vremuri, în satul său erau 200 de crampoși romi. Acum au mai rămas doar șase. Victor spune că este mândru că poate continua să practice meșteșugul strămoșilor săi și să trăiască din asta.

În februarie se împlinesc doi ani de când Rusia a invadat Ucraina în 2022.
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.
