The problem of youth unemployment is particularly high in Broadmeadows, Australia with implications regarding adverse economic, psychological, and physical effects on communities. Our project developed and evaluated potential approaches for a social enterprise partnership between Banksia and PUMA in order to help Banksia provide youth employment opportunities in Broadmeadows. We used an iterative process, refining potential approaches for a social enterprise. Three detailed approaches, a pop-up shop, affiliate marketing partnership, and co-branding partnership, were presented to both organizations.
