Disrupt, a platform for systematic entrepreneurial change.

Disrupt is a social movement that will create a permanent cultural shift in change-making and entrepreneurship. The movement will consist of three different phases which are the creation and distribution of the entrepreneurial ideology, the formation of change-making committees and the creation of the online idea-sharing platform.
First, the ideology is a collection of principles that has been proven to create entrepreneurs, leaders and social change-makers. It is extracted from careful research with educators and parents. Therefore, it is non-prescriptive. Using the ideology, the key stakeholder groups can create their own approaches and eco-systems to foster young change-makers.
Second, change-making committees will be established in elementary and secondary schools. Each committee will be consisted of 2 adults, 2 educators and 6 students. The committee will be responsible to create change-making programs and strategies for their school.
Lastly, when the committees have been established, a conversation of change-making would have been started. Leveraging this buzz, an online platform for parents, educators and students with the tools and resources will allow them to connect and share about principles for grooming entrepreneurial kids.
The project will make a difference because the result of this movement is permanent. Unlike other social organizations, Disrupt aims at parents who are the key decision makers for entrepreneurial education during early childhood. The idea will be successful because:
1)The information is non-prescriptive.
2)An immersive environment is created by engaging students, parents and educators.
3)What we are building doesn’t exist.
There are a few key stakeholders who will be involved in this project. They are educators, parents and students. Educators, parents and guardians will be involved through partnerships with schools, the ministry of education and school boards. Strategic partnerships with existing NGO concerning entrepreneurship and creative education such as Junior Achievement, The Montessori Group and others will also involve youths, parents and educators.
There is a need to promote entrepreneurship in the First Nations community. The First Nations of Quebec and Labrador Economic Development Commission (FNQLEDC), the First Nations of Quebec Business Network (FNQBN) and Aboriginal entrepreneurship stakeholders and various owners of Aboriginal business (start-ups or in expansion) companies all recognize the need to put the young aboriginal entrepreneurial spirit into good use.

In addition, existing statistics prove that my project will make a difference. The model of using entrepreneurship to promote economic prosperity and personal development has been done before in different ways. In a Boston Consulting Group research, Junior Achievement, an organization that promotes entrepreneurship in elementary and secondary schools through after-school programs, proved that participants of Junior Achievement had on average, 50% higher income than average people and is 3x more likely to hold a senior management position.

The result is almost guaranteed.
