Teaching

What should we be teaching when it comes to poverty and entrepreneurship? Educational efforts can be grouped into two general categories. The first category concerns entrepreneurship and poverty as a topical area within colleges and universities. There are relatively few university courses dedicated exclusively to this topic, and we highlight some of these offerings. The second category involves teaching entrepreneurship principles and concepts to those in poverty. We address this area not here but under Community Engagement Initiatives. For both of these categories, we identify available teaching tools and case studies to support these curricular efforts.
