SES2023 Hybrid Conference

It is our ambition to organize SES2023 safely and responsibly, in light of the current situation worldwide related to the COVID 19 pandemic.

​

We have learnt over the past years, that hosting a hybrid conference brings many possibilities and opportunities for those that can not physically attend our event. The hybrid conference format is particularly important for our mission to promote social entrepreneurship as a tool for positive social and environmental impact. By making our event accessible to individuals and communities that may face geographical or financial barriers to attending in person, we hope to empower a wider range of change-makers to drive sustainable change in their local contexts.

​

SES2023 is planned to be held as a hybrid conference. This means both, onsite in Cartagena and online. We hope for favourable conditions to have the opportunity to meet in person and to host virtually those participants who are unable to travel. We will closely monitor the situation in Cartagena and communicate in due time, should our plans of hosting an onsite conference change.
