Entrepreneurial resilience refers to the capacity to face, overcome and project oneself after suffering life events with a negative impact. Emerging adulthood and the characteristics of university life facilitate the occurrence of stressful situations that can affect well-being. The aim of this phenomenological research is to explore the strategic components of entrepreneurial resilience and how young university students have shaped their entrepreneurial resilience after experiencing negative life events. The present research is a multiple case study that was developed through a mixed methodology. The methodological sequence was quantitative and qualitative, with priority given to the qualitative phase of the research. Ten university students with high levels of resilience were interviewed. The data were analysed using thematic analysis. The results indicate that resilience is built through intrapersonal and exopersonal processes. These processes make up a set of strategic dimensions related to entrepreneurial behaviour that are used for the construction of personal projects.

Many non-governmental organisations (NGOs) provide programs expressly geared to assist disabled individuals in starting and running enterprises (Ab Wahid et al, 2023), such as SAY LEAD in this study. Mentorship, business skill training, marketing, and financial management are all possible options.…”

This multi method study seeks to identify and rank strategies for entrepreneurs with disabilities (EWDs) to expand their businesses. Sixteen EWDs were interviewed, and the themes identified became feeder for the first round Delphi method which involved 26 non-EWDs experts. A total of 51 keywords which were then consolidated into eight strategies. In the second round of the Delphi method, the eight strategies ranked by 22 experts based on order of importance from highest (most important strategy) to lowest (least important strategy) are as follows: 1. Business fundamental, 2. Ecosystem, 3. Collaboration, 4. NGO and government agencies, 5. Digital transformation, 6. New business venture, 7. Education and training, and 8. Personality development. The researchers recommended an integrated approach for key stakeholders, as well as policymakers, to develop an inclusive and caring eco-system, while developing structured intervention programs to monitor and mentor promising EWDs so that they can realise their full potential. In addition, policies on disabled persons in Malaysian need to be reformed to be comparable to those in advanced economies. Further action research and tracer studies could be conducted to better understand the phenomenon. Finally, comparative research on EWD programs and policies with other neighboring countries, as well as more complex and advanced qualitative analyses involving moderators and mediators are recommended accordingly.

This paper aims to explore the best teaching and learning strategies for promoting students' social entrepreneurial minds. At the initial stage, the scoping review draws from 198 secondary data from various works in the social entrepreneurship education context, including studies on education programs, curricular development, knowledge-acquiring mechanisms, and social entrepreneurial exploration processes. It also examines instructional methods and strategies that foster the development of potential social entrepreneur mindsets. Finally, 26 included papers present a Top-Down and Bottom-Up Approach, Experiential Learning, Action Learning, Community-Based Project, and Problem-Based Learning (PBL) as effective social entrepreneurship teaching and learning approaches to promote social entrepreneurial mindsets. The review concludes that a combination of all of the aforementioned teaching and learning strategies is among the top teaching approaches for effective social entrepreneurship education. The paper proposes that dynamic social entrepreneurship curricula and learning models that emphasize hands-on experience and experience-based learning can be effective strategies for promoting students' social entrepreneurial minds.
