The types of social issues they address are diverse, but the core unifying feature of these organisations is the desire to create positive social impact. The following short videos provide some insight into some of the important issues addressed by social entrepreneurs in their community.\n<\/p>\n<p>The first video is of Bec Scott, who is the CEO and Co-founder of one of SEDA&#8217;s favourite social enterprises &#8211; STREAT. This video provides a great snapshot of the motivations driving the formation of STREAT and the way in which this enterprise addresses the issue of youth homelessness. What shines through brightly in this video is Bec&#8217;s passion for making a difference in her local community. As you listen to her story, have a think about which issues in your local community could be addressed through social entrepreneurship.

Laura&#8217;s motivation to establish this social enterprise is very personal and arose from the challenges faced her younger brother Shane, who had profound Cerebral Palsy, when trying to find work. Shane was bubbly, intelligent and had a passion for IT and computer work. At the time, no programs existed to help people like Shane build vocational skills, and be trained within a real business. Laura&#8217;s story illustrates how a personal experience inspired the formation of her social enterprise. After watching this video, reflect upon your own personal experiences &#8211; is there a challenge you have personally faced that represents an opportunity for social entrepreneurship? For example, have you found it difficult to gain employment experience, access to life&#8217;s necessities such as food and housing, or even access knowledge or support services that you need to live the life you want?
