Youth Environmental and Social Enterprises

Youth Environmental and Social Enterprises YESE is collection of commercially viable business enterprises that address environmental and social issues while engaging the youth.

We believe, “doing good for your community and nature can make good business”

Vision:
YESE seeks a future where youth enterprises foster a prosperous, sustainable and equitable society. Vision Statement:

Our vision underscores three important principles of the YESE initiative:

• Economic prosperity: Our enterprises are youth-focused and youth-driven to create lasting prosperity for young peopl

e and the communities where they live.

• Environmental sustainability: Our enterprises are run in ways that are within the limits of the environment and sustainable harnessing of natural resources. We ensure that economic prosperity meets the development needs of our current generation without compromising those of the future generation.

• Social equity: Our enterprises take into context local social considerations. This value ensures that our enterprises work to as practically as possible ensure that alongside financial and environmental sustainability we seek to address social considerations in an equitable manner, between individuals, gender, communities and between nations. Mission:

To contribute towards its vision, YESE operates and supports partners to successfully run “youth-focused enterprises that are commercially viable and sustainably deliver transformative benefits to people and nature”.

Prince of Girona Foundation (FPdGi) - AWARD

The nomination period for entries to the 2019 Awards is now open. For the first time, and coinciding with the Princess of Girona Foundation's tenth anniversary, this will include a new International Award which recognises the personal and professional careers of young people in any part of the world who stand out for their work, their merits and their exemplarity. The impact must always be considered in its broadest dimension, in that their contributions extend and/or are known on an international level. This global award highlights the capacity for achievement and self-improvement of young people from all over the world in the development of projects or businesses --especially when they have involved difficulty or risk-- demonstrating that they have the power to influence, in a creative way, positive changes in society and that they are inspiring role models for other young people. Unlike the other categories of the FPdGi Awards, the International Award is selected from nominations.

The FPdGi is launching the Princess of Girona Foundation Awards with the aim of promoting and fostering initiative and effort, scientific research and artistic creativity, solidarity and the development of talent in young entrepreneurs and innovators who are driven to build a more just world in a globalised setting, and who have the capacity to take risks and the necessary motivation to bring about changes in society.

- Princess of Girona Foundation Social Award (individual): Designed to recognise young social entrepreneurs with projects that foster the integration of marginalised groups or those at risk of exclusion.

- Princess of Girona Foundation Scientific Research Award (individual): Designed to recognise young scientists (including human and social scientists) with outstanding projects or research experiences in their discipline that are enterprising, innovative and show strong potential for future development.

- Princess of Girona Foundation Arts and Literature Award (individual): Designed to recognise talented young people involved in promising work in any discipline of the arts and literature, and which serves as an example and inspiration for other young people.

- Princess of Girona Foundation Business Award (individual): Designed to recognise young people who show entrepreneurial initiative in the ex*****on of an original and viable business project.

- Princess of Girona Foundation International Award (individual): Unlike the other categories of the FPdGi Awards, the International Award is selected from nominations.

SECRET SAUCE #2: EXCELLING AT MATH TAKES PERSISTENCE!

Parents and teachers need to encourage young learners to understand that excelling at primary mathematics requires persistence. This is a very important value and state of mind to cultivate. Some math problems will require the learner several days to solve. Don’t simply give them the answer; rather encourage them to keep trying – teach them not to give up if at the 1st, 2nd or 20th down to nth attempt they don’t get the answer right. Encourage them to keep trying and with each successful attempt they will move closer to the solution and at each problem solved, they will grow in confidence.
