Like every year, Sankalp Forum created a platform to recognize social entrepreneurs through the Sankalp Global Awards 2022. Sankalp Awards is one of the Global South’s most prestigious social enterprise awards. Over the years, Sankalp has recognized more than 2,400 social enterprises and channeled more than 300 million dollars to high-impact businesses. The Awards are designed to support young social enterprises and recognize their impact, successfully steering change.
We honored the most promising social enterprises across sectors. This year, we had an overwhelming number of entries with nearly 300 applications from 43 countries globally. Each enterprise went through rigorous assessment and finally, 13 of the best enterprises had the opportunity to pitch to our esteemed Grand Jury from Asia, America, and Africa.
