Upcoming Opportunity #1 – European Forum Alpbach

16 April 2010 | Category: Community discussions |

Every year since 1945, the “European Forum Alpbach” has been held in the Tyrolian mountain village of Alpbach. For almost three weeks Alpbach becomes the village of thinkers or, as Otto Molden, the founder of the Forum, called it, the “other magic mountain”. Speakers and participants from all parts of the world, from science, economics and politics, experienced experts and students, come together in Alpbach to discuss the current issues and to formulate interdisciplinary solutions.

Seminar, initiated and designed by emersense

In the beginning of every Forum several seminars are being held for students on various topics. Emersense in cooperation with IG Alpbach Wien initiated and designed one of this year’s seminars:

‘Social Entrepreneurship’

The seminar will explore the concept, idea and phenomenon of social entrepreneurship with particular focus on its form and relevance in the Central European context and on gaining insights into the personal lifecycle and development path of social entrepreneurs. The seminar will conclude on a personal level with space for own ideas for social initiatives.

Looking back at Solution 2010

8 March 2010 | Category: Community discussions |

Solution 2010 took place from 25-28 February and celebrated its 5th anniversary. Over 80 young professionals from around the world came together in Vienna to engage in a learning experience, designed to help them crystallize their intention to work for a better world. A multitude of diverse settings were used in order to create spaces to reflect, engage, have fun, prototype, learn and connect: a vision atelier, community dance, a self-guided creative session, coffee talks and workshops with over 20 guests and many more… A big ”thank you” to all the participants, guests and learning team members for making Solution 2010 happen 🙂 (read more about Solution here)
