Abstract

This research paper explores the crucial role of sustainable entrepreneurship in enhancing public health and social development. Sustainable entrepreneurship, by definition, focuses on creating businesses that are environmentally, socially, and economically responsible. This approach not only generates profits but also addresses pressing societal challenges such as poverty, inequality, and environmental degradation. This paper will delve into the various ways sustainable entrepreneurship contributes to public health, including access to clean water and sanitation, improved nutrition, and the development of affordable healthcare solutions. Furthermore, it will examine the social development impacts, such as job creation, poverty reduction, and community empowerment. Finally, the paper will discuss the challenges and opportunities facing sustainable entrepreneurship and offer recommendations for fostering its growth and impact.
