Digital Social Enterprise & E-Commerce for Sustainability

Building export-ready digital revenue models for civil society organizations

Many civil society organizations produce powerful ideas, culture, narratives, and public value — yet remain structurally dependent on short-term donor funding. This program supports organizations to design, launch, and govern mission-aligned digital social enterprises using global e-commerce infrastructure as a long-term sustainability strategy.

The focus is not on "selling merchandise," but on building ethical, export-ready digital platforms that convert advocacy, culture, and institutional identity into durable, unrestricted income — while preserving organizational values and credibility.

The program is designed for nonprofits, think tanks, advocacy groups, and cultural institutions seeking to diversify revenue streams, strengthen digital capacity, and reduce over-reliance on grants.
