Project United
Enriching the learning experience through experiential learning

workshops. We gamify the process of identifying and choosing

activities.
Paddy Waste
Paddy Waste to Income
Helping Indian rice farmers reduce waste burning and boost income.
This project gathers resources and expertise to demonstrate to
small rice farmers in India that they can stop burning their waste
paddy stubble. They can significantly reduce pollution and gain
additional revenue streams. We have successfully completed
pilots in Punjab and Goa.
Project Tikinaagan
The Enactus teams at Fleming College Trent University are a diverse team of creative student volunteers driven to empower our community through social entrepreneurship and collaboration. Enactus is a community of entrepreneurial leaders who see business as a way to address social issues. With this in mind, we wish to use our platform to assist First Nation Communities. The Collaboration Project wishes to assist First Nation Communities in achieving their goals by offering training, resources, and support to our Host First Nation Communities based on their needs. We do so without agenda, research solutions based on their needs, look for collaboration opportunities that use gathered resources and technology, with full transparency, always including First Nation Communities in the conversation, and no execution without First Nation Communities’ approval.
