The Concept

About

Enactus IADT

The Institute of Art and Design Technology Dun Laoghaire (IADT) is one of the newest members to the competition only joining this year. We as a team and a college are very excited to take part and do our bit to contribute to society.

As it’s our first year our opening projects will take some time to get off the ground while we find our feet within Enactus however we are very pleased with them.

Our first project is trying to bring 3D printing to third world countries with the aim of eliminating the need to walk for days to gather parts and equipment for everyday life.

Our second project is about helping young people and teenagers with their online presence and being aware of what they post. The main focus and attention is aimed towards keeping their online presence appropriate for entering the workforce as the internet has become such a large part of our personal and professional lives.

Our team members are eager to get involved and very enthusiastic about or projects. We a lot of faith in them and hope they are as successful as we think they will be. All of us here on Team IADT are thrilled to be joining Enactus and keen to do our best to contribute.

TECTUM

Fight homelessness

Helping homeless

We want to help homeless people by giving them an opportunity to start a new life on solid basis. There is a lack of recruits in the French Army, and Army provide salary, food, bed and education. Also, it permits to learn a new job (cooker, mechanism, plumber...) because joining the army DOES NOT MEAN FIGHT !!

How do we proceed?

Thanks to our volunteer team, we are able to offer to homeless an innovative service: Detecting the homeless skills, giving formations and finally, providing a job (with food and accommodation)

About Us

History

YUP was started in October 2017 by 3rd Year Business Entrepreneurship students at the Institute of Art, Design+ Technology Dun laoghaire. These three students are the trustees of this social enterprise. Marie Karugendo, Rhodline O. Manu and James Doyle.

Reasons of starting this enterprise

This idea begun as a requirement of Social enterprise module. Students had to work in groups and come up with a certain type of social enterprise as a business proposal.

Having Marie in the group who is a single mother with four teenage children and, works closely with some vulnerable families in her community, she identified the gap of empowering the young people with skills at a very early stage to boost their confidence, self-esteem and bring awareness of Social and Environmental values. Anti-social behaviour is on the rise in most parts of our country especially here in Dublin. We are experiencing gangs of very young people from vulnerable communities who are involved in street crimes. We need to act now when they are young before they are affected by the negative aspects of society. Prevention is better than cure.

How do we do it?

The programme is designed to work with IADT Dun Laoghaire, in a relaxed friendly profession setting of expertise, by setting up market stalls giving the young people a chance to create their own merchandise and sell to the public.
