Abstract

The YEEES Sustainability Camps are an innovative format for sustainability-oriented entrepreneurship education that gives participants from different backgrounds the opportunity to obtain real-life experience by helping solve sustainability issues in an international context. Universities from Germany and the south of Africa worked together in the implementation of four different Camps. The societal problems the world currently faces require change agents from various fields willing to contribute solutions and think entrepreneurially. We believe the Sustainability Camp format is an effective tool for motivating its participants to generate awareness about the problems it is tackling, while also acquiring key competences necessary for developing entrepreneurial solutions. In this chapter, we introduce the Sustainability Camps’ formats and share experiences being made by implementing and further developing it.
