Description
BizGees stands for the autonomy for every human being. Zufi Deo, one of the founders of BizGees and Arts4Refugees, gives us hope about the changing world and how businesses are already transforming from money-making machines to world changers. He has previously supported 2,000 entrepreneurs in London using the sharing economy approach over 10 years. He currently leads with a team at BizGees and Arts4Refugees to help as many people as possible be self-sufficient and live a prosperous life.  From BizGees: BizGees stands for the autonomy of every human being. We achieve this by helping post conflict communities pick themselves up once the return home. We support local talent where our customers are based build their careers. We lower our carbon footprint in all our activities. 1 in every 110 people in the world are displaced. At 70.8 million people, the scale of refugee movements seems more daunting than ever. This has led to claims of a global refugee crisis… Humanizing the scale of refugee movements is essential. Anything but drowns out the voices telling the stories we need to hear. In each region we work with local delivery partners to ensure high and stable rates of our services.  Their local knowledge. Their understanding of the local culture. Their awareness of the local language gives us a deep and unique insight.  This approach also allows us to ensure the impact levels and success rates are high.
