ENTREPRENEURSHIP DEVELOPMENT EFFORTSWhen Optimism Makes Sense Philosphy It's a tough time to be an optimist. Unemployment is a scourge, sapping the public's spirit and creating hardship for millions. Optimism is the faith that leads to achievement. Nothing can be done without hope and confidence. For me optimism is two lovers walking into the sunset arm in arm. Or maybe into the sunrise - whatever appeals to you. -Alok

The Programme ConceptBringing Real Life to Learning • "Imagine a place where youth Persons learn math by holding jobs, and owning businesses that sell everything from gifts to stationeries. A place where students study logic and law by taking their peers to court and fining them in the school’s own currency. A place where youths come to understand politics by drawing up their own constitution, drafting laws and deciding which days of the week Olympics caps may be worn to class. Imagine, in short, a school where civics is not just a course but a continuous experience in playing with the building blocks of modern society."
The Programme ConceptBringing Real Life to Learning “We’re lucky because our training lab is different. It will taught you more than just how to read and write and count. It will taught you about the real world. Other youth persons do arithmetic in workbooks, we’ve done it in our own shops, banks and businesses. Other youth persons just read newspapers, we’ve produced them…”
The Programme ConceptIt Takes a Community We know that family and community members want to make a difference in the lives of their youth persons in the communities in which they live and work. Too often they are stymied by a system that isn’t always visitor friendly. Building an entire society inside a training lab or afterschool with a MicroSociety program provides compelling opportunities for parents and partners to get involved naturally.
The Programme ConceptIt Takes a Community Because it’s a real society - in miniature - individual success in that society depends on the knowledge and skills youth Persons develop as they pursue jobs. The intellectual, social, and emotional growth of students managing and staffing their ventures and agencies is advanced when adults consult and advise them. When parents and business partners are involved, the miniature society becomes the vehicle not only for cultivating higher career aspirations and skills for youth people but also for advancing larger community goals.
The Programme ConceptIt Takes a Community When volunteering in a MicroSociety setting, you are not just a role model for one youth Person. Through your involvement, you become the mentor to the facilitating teacher as well as to the students in a particular business venture, non-profit, or government agency. youth Persons not only learn but practice those 21st century skills that are so familiar to adults outside school and so essential to their future success - communication, collaboration, critical thinking, creativity, initiative and innovation. Students, in turn teach those skills to their peers, demonstrating the highest level of learning.
