CHALLENGE – HealthCare & FoodTech
The project
Idaho Basque Challenge arises from a co-creation between the Basque Country and Idaho with the aim of being an intercultural community of impact entrepreneurs that encourages the development of socio-business initiatives that promote inclusive development and contribute to reducing social inequality or the impact on the environment through the diaspora. The creation of positive impact in our communities is what unites us and the shared purpose of reducing inequality gaps is what activates us as social entrepreneurs under the slogan “diaspora4connection”. This programme was held digitally during 2021 by COVID-19.
Objectives
Generate new relationships and bridges with the Basque diaspora in Idaho through social entrepreneurship and impact.
