From communities recovering from conflict and economic disruption to those preserving traditional cultures while engaging in modern enterprise, The common thread creating intersections is the community, broadly conceived as a dynamic network of individuals, families, and organizations united by shared values, goals, or challenges, where collaboration, agency, and mutual support empower members to address common needs and create opportunities for business venturing and self-employment. In enterprising communities, this network fosters innovation, knowledge-sharing, and growth through entrepreneurial leadership and strategic partnerships, strengthening both the community and its impact on broader economic and social systems.
