Mission Statement
EmpreSomos by Global AEBD (web portal: empresomos.org) is a 501(c)3 Nonprofit Social Enterprise with an international focus. It is at the forefront of continuous online entrepreneurial learning and training and ecosystem support in Central America. Propelled by the wisdom and expertise of a distinguished international cadre of scholars, professionals, and visionaries, we aim to transform the entrepreneurial landscape and significantly reduce unemployment, underemployment, illicit money-making, and forced migration. Our Mission: Empower people, particularly the underprivileged, to continuously learn, grow, and network to expand their opportunities to create and innovate independently or within conventional and social enterprises. Our vision is to transform the countries of Central America (in particular Guatemala, Honduras, El Salvador and Nicaragua) into a vibrant hub of entrepreneurship, brimming with creativity and innovation in every field and social sector.
Description
At the core of our mission is a powerful commitment to tackling four critical challenges that profoundly impact Central American communities: unemployment, underemployment, forced migration, and illicit economic activities. These are barriers that stifle sustainable development and the chance for everyone to thrive.
