    Dear ENTREP members,

    We invite you consider a unique conference focused on innovative approaches to Poverty Alleviation and the incorporation of learning from such approaches in business curriculums.  The conference will take place at the INCAE (www.incae.edu) campus in Nicaragua from July 28 to 30, 2014.  One key feature of the conference is a day in the field meeting with and learning from practitioners and innovators addressing poverty.  The conference is being organized under the auspices of the United Nations Principles for Responsible Management Education initiative (www.unprme.org) and INCAE, one of Latin America's top business schools that greatly emphasizes all aspects of sustainability.  More information on the conference can be found here http://www.unprme.org/events/index.php?eventid=247 and the call for papers can be found here http://www.unprme.org/news/index.php?newsid=281

    At this moment in time, almost everything being done in the name of sustainability entails attempts to reduce unsustainability.  But reducing unsustainability, although critical, does not and will not create sustainability
