LENA CHALLENGE

APPRENTICE SUSTAINABILITY CHALLENGE

In cooperation with Sindbad Social Business, delivered by Thinkubator Sustainable Solutions OG

The sustainability transition only works with the whole workforce. Our challenge gets apprentices excited about sustainable business - hands-on, inside their own occupation.

Tailored to your company: we show where apprentices already create impact in their daily work.

TOGETHER WITH SINDBAD SOCIAL BUSINESS

Sindbad is a social business that supports young people at the end of compulsory schooling in their transition to further education or an apprenticeship. For ten years, it has accompanied more than 600 young people across Austria every year in 1:1 mentoring on career orientation, applications and starting work. In the LeNa Challenge, Sindbad contributes its long experience working with young people and its expertise in social sustainability. Thinkubator complements this with its expertise in the circular economy and ecological sustainability. Together, social and ecological perspectives are combined to create a hands-on learning space for young people.

Portrait of Bernd Hartweger, Sindbad Social Business
Sindbad and Thinkubator share the conviction that we must not settle for the status quo – neither in the circular economy nor in equal opportunities. At the same time, we are convinced that young people are the greatest opportunity for a sustainable future and for future-proof business. That is why, in our apprentice sustainability challenge, we work with apprentices on practical tasks around ecological and social sustainability. With its expertise and strong training skills, Thinkubator is the ideal partner for this.
