During my school’s winter break, I had
the honor of interning at the Yunus
Centre for 3 weeks. The experience was
truly eye-opening and I managed to
gain a snippet of knowledge of the
world-changing potential of social
business philosophy.
In fact, a specific aspect of Professor
Yunus’s philosophy that continues to
inspire me is that social businesses
seek to distribute profits among the
workers and empower the poor, which
serves to create endless opportunities
that end up reshaping the lives of the
underprivileged of Bangladesh. As for
the future of social business, one concept
I was intrigued by was the idea of
establishing social business cities.
Thus, the utilization of Social Businesses
could be used as a means to create
local jobs and services, promoting
social cohesion through the formation
of social capital, and reducing the
burden on government taxation
systems. Ultimately, I believe that establishing
social business cities as global
hubs could effectively be how social
business revolutionizes the world in
the future.
To conclude, I would like to thank Professor
Yunus for the immense inspiration
he has been for me. By working for
the Yunus Centre and learning about
how he pioneered social businesses
and development in Bangladesh, I
solidified my love for giving back to my
