WHAT IS IT, INACTUS?
Enactus is a global community of
students who use entrepreneurship to do their part in the face of societal challenges.
We believe that social entrepreneurship makes it possible to improve society and change things.
​
At Enactus Sherbrooke, we develop projects that help communities in Quebec and elsewhere on the social, environmental and economic levels. We encourage our members to dare to imagine a better world, and to take action to achieve it. We measure our performance in terms of social impact, not capital. We bring together on the campus of the Université de Sherbrooke people from all disciplines, but who share common values of mutual aid.
We are one of1800 universitiesacross the planet who take part in this great movement.

OUR VISION.
University campuses are incubators of good ideas and meeting places where people from all disciplines come together to rethink our present and our future.
​
We believe that learning does not only happen on the school benches, and that we must leave the classroom to experience in all its depth and beauty what our transition to higher education has in store for us.
​
The social and environmental issues we are currently facing concern us all, and it is together that we will succeed in overcoming them. There is no better time than during your studies to open up a dialogue and provide yourself with the necessary space for reflection in order to find concrete solutions.

WHAT WE DO.
Our university campuses have been host to ambitious and socially beneficial student initiatives many times, and will continue to be so in the future.
Our role is to enable the people who carry out these projects to reach their full potential, to promote their success, and to maximize their impact.
