Students from under-represented groups have traditionally experienced barriers in accessing enterprise opportunities, support and funding (Osho, https://www.enterprise.ac.uk/widening-participation-and-ented/). These students can, at times, find it hard to identify with the language of enterprise or the journeys of entrepreneurs: this can lead to a lack of engagement in entrepreneurial education.
This sought to identify and address barriers to engagement from students from underrepresented groups. Through co-creating activities with students from University of the Arts London (UAL) and London South Bank University (LSBU), we developed a toolkit that reframes social enterprise education, with a focus on exploring the links between personal values, motivations, social enterprise and community impact.
