Climate change is becoming increasingly harmful, prompting social enterprises to find solutions and create environmental impacts. Digital transformation opens various opportunities for social enterprises to tackle environmental challenges such as access to clean water, electricity, and education. However, it is noted that 71% of social entrepreneurs struggle with financial sustainability. This situation highlights the need for more support and digital-based training for young entrepreneurs, especially those in environmental social enterprise. Digital transformation can promote the growth and financial stability of social enterprises. Effective tools such as gamification methodology can enhance training for youth in this sector, enabling them to use digital tools in tandem with entrepreneurial skills to address societal and environmental problems.
