Social Entrepreneurship Summer Camp Successfully Concluded

Organized in collaboration with İstasyonTEDU and the TED University International Programs Office, the Social Entrepreneurship Summer Camp took place between July 7–13, 2025, as part of the Blended Intensive Program component of the SocialEASE Erasmus+ International Internship Consortium Project. Hosted by the social enterprise Gümüşlük Academy, the camp brought together 23 students from six different European countries.

Prior to the program, participants attended an online preparatory session introducing the fundamentals of social entrepreneurship. During the five full days of the camp, participants took part in workshops designed to help them identify social and environmental issues, develop innovative solutions, frame these solutions, develop a business model, and  tell their story to communicate their impact.

Combining learning, creativity, and intercultural interaction, the camp was not only an educational process for the participants but also a concrete reflection of TED University’s global vision and inclusive internationalization approach. The Program ended with an online evaluation session held one week after the camp.

First held in 2025, the Social Entrepreneurship Summer Camp is planned to take place every year until the completion of the SocialEASE Project.
