Dear Academicians,
The 7.7 and 7.6 earthquakes in Kahramanmaraş, which stunned our nation, unfortunately caused great loss of life and property damage in 11 provinces. As academicians, we believe that we can find solutions to many of our social problems with a common mind so that our wounds can be healed quickly.
As Social Business Global, we carry out joint studies with universities, chambers of commerce, municipalities, high schools, non-governmental organizations and many institutions and organizations that may be related to the subject in the titles of social responsibility and social entrepreneurship.

We think that the number and diversity of scientific studies and academic publications in these fields should be increased in order to better understand and apply the concepts of social entrepreneurship, social enterprise and sustainability. In this context, we have always attached importance to sharing the works of you, valuable academicians, with non-governmental organizations, companies and individuals in the field, and we will continue to share them from now on. We need your support so that we can achieve more with the awareness of the power we can create together.

The need to establish a network has emerged in order to gather academicians from different countries, different universities and different disciplines who do or want to do academic studies on social entrepreneurship, social entrepreneurship and sustainability at one point, in order to help them feed off each other and work together, and the disasters we have experienced accelerated this process.

While creating a communication network with the academicians in the Social Business Global Academic Committee, we aim to contribute to academic studies by sharing our datasets and what we learned from 480 social entrepreneurship and project stories from 52 different countries that we obtained in international workshops.

As Social Business Global, we are aware of the great importance of universities, academics and students in tackling social problems. We would like to thank our academicians who are interested in the field for their efforts and academic studies, and we would like to say that we will be pleased to cooperate with you and your participation in our academic committee.

Academic Committee Leader
prof. Dr. Mehmet YAZICI
