What is Enactus?





UN Sustainable
Development Goals
In 2015, world leaders agreed to 17 Global Goals for sustainable development. These goals have the power to create a better world by 2030, by ending poverty, fighting inequality and addressing the urgency of climate change. Guided by the goals, it is now up to all of us. At Enactus, we’ve found an approach that works. One that creates sustainable, lasting change. Entrepreneurial action and business innovation that creates social impact.
Together, we can achieve the Global Goals.
