School Social Business Latam (draft)
A bit of history, here in Chile, "The Center for Latin American
TechnologicalInnovation and Development (CIDTEL), was created under the need
for allcountries need to add value to develop the areas of research,
development andinnovation, and to become a developed country.Under that order,
CIDTEL began to look for a place to settle and partners tosupport
him. The first option was in the city of Rengo, Chile, where he was
acollege campus and abandoned by all means get on loan attempted toestablish a
point of reference in Latin America, inviting all national actors
andInternational who wanted to participate. He added that supported
institutionslike the University of Hawaii, Israel Institute of Technology,
McGill University inCanada and the Yunus Centre in Bangladesh (with Prof. Yunus
I have a list of 1997), and the latter offered the first program launch Social
Business MBA inthe world. In turn, Professor Yunus in his letter of support indicates
that wehave all the support of the Center and its part in the launch of the
first MBA inSocial Business and also mentioned in his letter that he hoped
we could alsocreate a social fund for Chile for scholarships for students.
For a long time,trying with all authorities in the region, academic, public and
private andacross the country in taking forward this project but it was
impossible. Then wetried in the Maule Region, in Cauquenes and Parral,
unsuccessfully, so I finallyopted to offer the project in other countries.
The first country to host thisproject was Bolivia that in a very short time
made the impossible possible todevelop this initiative shortly. Aquinas University
(UDABOL) and politicalauthorities saw it was the project that they needed in
Bolivia in the creation of a Social Business School (ENS),www.ensglobal.orgwhich help to eradicate thepoverty that President Evo Morales has as
its goal for the year 2025.La ENSand all attempts made in Chile was the only
way that we could achieve thisgoal was to offer in the statutes and in the
educational part that was withinCIDTEL allowing UDABOL handle a Yunus
Social Business School (ENS), whichcould offer certificate, diploma and MBA in
Social Business with the support of Yunus Center and especially the
UDABOL and with the support of governmentauthorities . Therefore, an agreement
was signed with CIDTEL, with the help of the university, and created.
From that fact the ENS-UDABOL offeringcertificates, diploma and MBA. Soon,
we were invited to Constitution, MauleRegion in Chile, by Carlos Reveco
Mendoza, president of the Board of Advancement of Maule Constitution,
where the Mayor of the cityenthusiastically takes the idea of enhancing
the commune with the ENS and Tourism Academy (FoE) to offer certificates

certificates and diplomas and we signed anagreement to develop the ENS-CFTM. He
signed a new agreement with theMunicipality of Constitution, and CFTM
