PERUMIN Inspira is a contest promoted by a three-way alliance among the Peruvian Institute of Mining Engineers (IIMP), CIP – One CGIAR and Kunan. Its objective is to acknowledge and support the most outstanding social startups meant to operate in towns located above 500, 2,000 and 3,000 m.a.s.l. addressing challenges closely related to six of the SDGs of the United Nations, namely: end of poverty; zero hunger; health and welfare; clean water and sanitation; decent work and economic growth; and climate action. PERUMIN Inspira aims to showcase these efforts and build bridges among mining companies and social entrepreneurs, thereby becoming a platform to articulate and leverage these initiatives, as well as generate sustainable development.
In May 2023, the fourth edition of this contest will be launched. The evaluation criteria are the relevance of the issue addressed in relation to the aforementioned SDGs, the sustainability of the startup, the impact, the innovation of the proposal, replicability, and team members. This effort would not be possible without our allies, among which are KAMAN business incubator of Universidad Católica de San Pablo, Poderosa, Orica and ADN Partners, who make it possible to recognize the winning startups with different prizes.
