Module 2 – Identifying Social Problems and Opportunities
IN THIS LESSON
Creating meaningful social impact begins with understanding the challenges we want to address. While many social problems are visible in our communities, their underlying causes are often more complex and interconnected than they first appear.
In this lesson, you'll explore how social entrepreneurs identify social challenges, use frameworks such as the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) to understand broader systems, and investigate the root causes behind the issues they hope to solve.
As you watch, consider:
What social or environmental challenge matters most to you, and why?
What might be some of the underlying causes of that challenge beyond its visible symptoms?
