REDpreneur

Be a Changemaker, Become a REDpreneur

What is REDpreneur?

REDpreneur is the global initiative of the Austrian Red Cross (AutRC) that strengthens the resilience of Red Cross and Red Crescent (RCRC) National Societies (NSs), local enterprises and vulnerable communities. This is done by providing business skills and enterprise development support for more impact, innovation and sustainable service delivery. We provide trainings, mentoring and networking in hybrid formats. Moreover, we empower staff and volunteers from RCRC NSs, local civil society organizations (CSOs) and entrepreneurs to address the five Global Challenges outlined in the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies’ (IFRC) Strategy 2030. These are:

1. Climate and environmental crisis, 2. Evolving crisis and disasters, 3. Growing gaps in health and well-being, 4. Migration and identity, 5. Values, power and inclusion.
