Promoting social entrepreneurship to transform communities in Togo

Entrepreneurs play a key role in creating economic opportunities and developing solutions to social and environmental challenges.

However, turning an idea into a sustainable initiative requires training, specialised support and access to support networks.

In Togo, strengthening the social entrepreneurship ecosystem presents an opportunity to promote initiatives that contribute to improving health, social inclusion and community well-being, particularly among communities affected by NTDs.

Together with NunyaLab, a leading incubator supporting innovative entrepreneurship in Togo, and SYL CONSULT TOGO, the programme offers an acceleration process for social enterprises and entrepreneurs with social-impact projects.

The initiative combines individualised support, specialised training and technical assistance to strengthen skills in areas such as governance, business management, financial sustainability and social impact measurement. It also incorporates monitoring mechanisms to help consolidate the projects and strengthen their contribution to the communities where they operate.

The programme helps strengthen the social entrepreneurship ecosystem in Togo, creating opportunities for local businesses and initiatives to develop solutions aligned with the challenges facing their own communities.

Through support and capacity-building, participating entrepreneurs gain more tools to consolidate their projects, expand their social impact and promote initiatives that contribute to well-being, inclusion and economic development in their communities.
