Title: Eleventh hour project to make poverty history
Location:
Global
Status:
In Progress
Timeline: Ongoing
Categories: Globalization, Technology
Tags: poverty, indigenouspeoples, fairtrade, online, socialentrepreneurship
Description:
The idea is simple - we want to encourage marginalized communities to improve their livelihoods by providing them access to a worldwide market via the Internet.
We do that by building a web-based platform that connects community-based sellers to a socially-conscious market. These online stores can be set up and managed by the communities themselves, and Elevyn works closely with NGOs and field partners on training, consultancy and advisory.
