People with Purpose: Engagement and Employers
The Melting Pot
For the third in our series of social impact speaker events, we’ll zoom in on innovations being made by enterprises seeking to enhance employment and skills for those with diverse backgrounds. We’ll explore the joys and pains of growing an organisation which combines bespoke fabrication and training for those with diverse backgrounds; the challenges of tackling the stigma around homelessness; and the importance of pivoting to enhance the employment support that can be offered to people in crisis.
Stay tuned for more information on our speakers, including: Zakia Moulaoui of Invisible Cities, Linsey Melo de Silva of Forge and Equip, and Jane Devine of FourSquare.
