SEWF 2023 Community Hubs in Gippsland

15 October 2023

Social Enterprise World Forum (SEWF) 2023
Gippsland Community Hubs
In October 2023, Gippsland Social Enterprise Collective (GSEC) hosted a series of community hubs in Gippsland as part of the world-wide SEWF. 

Ranging from Morwell to Lakes Entrance and Warragul, SENVIC were thrilled to join the worldwide conversation to address social and environmental issues. 

Regenerative Tourism is the idea that tourism should leave a place better than it was before. Showcasing social enterprise, creativity and nature-based tourism, they explore the power of regenerative tourism to support regional communities on the frontline of the climate emergency.

We are thrilled that the World Wildlife Fund will partner with GSEC for a three-day ‘Innovate to Regenerate’ Local Learning Lab in November.

Making new connections on country

Students from Mallacoota P-12 College who were on day five of their Lake Tyers paddle expedition with ‘Up the Creek’ joined in the day, along with Year 9 students from the CATCH program at Lakes Entrance Secondary College.

The program included connecting young people with nature to sow the seed of careers in creative environmental stewardship, navigating with nature, ethical hospitality, creating meaningful livelihoods, discovering the FLOAT vessel, walking and talking.

Join our virtual panel conversation on September 29 at 6pm, part of the Social Enterprise World Forum Community Hub Takeover, where we will feature a short film showcasing social enterprise approaches for regenerative tourism in action, followed by a panel of regenerative tourism experts.
