Difference:Enabled also caters to the autistic individual, to help them gain the skillsand confidence needed to enter a workplace and to integrate fully. Helping themfind a suitable job or work experience is also what the project delivers to theautistic individual.

进展（EnablingProgress）
我们项目的成果是七名参与者得到了工作安排，大部分参与者都得到了有价值的技能。
The results ofthe project are 7 individuals securing a work placement, and many othersgaining valuable skills.
我们的目标是拓宽Difference Enabled的商业部分，继而使我们（在项目过程中）能定期得到来自我们客户的生意或者一项生意是用来支持自闭症患者得到一个长期担任的角色或者一份有薪资的工作安排。

今天上两篇！就是有案例！就是任性！

生命之树（TREES FOR LIFE）
一句话项目（THE PROJECT）
指引受众运用商业以保护环境
Empowering learners to operate businesses thatconserve the environment.

发现机会（Seeing Possibilities）
基于这种情况，纳塔尔大学创行团队成立了了生命之树项目。他们找到一名赞助者向荒野保护基金会购买700株种苗，同时与一些小学保持联系，以三人为一组分配树苗，让他们通过日记的形式跟踪他们培养种苗的过程。这也是与一所能够开展培训与编写指南（手册）的学校协力完成的。
It was from these circumstances that the Trees for Life Project was bornby the UKZN Enactus team. They found a sponsor who purchased 700 seedlings fromthe Wildlands Conservation Trust and engaged Primary Schools where oneindigenous tree was allocated to groups of 3 learners who had to nurture andtrack the progress of their seedling through a journal. This was done inconjunction with the school where training and manuals (handbooks) weredeveloped.
采取行动（Taking Action）
项目组成功与3个省级部门合作以推出这个项目。同时，他们也聘用了一个环保专家Wally Menne，运用他的专长来确定适于生长在这片区域的相关本土树种。
The UKZN Team successfully partnered with 3 provincial departments to rollout this programme, and also engaged an expert environmentalist, Wally Menne,who has offered his expertise to identify relevant indigenous tree speciessuitable for the area.
通过提供给社区一个可行的方案，项目组解决了威胁到德班南社区的健康和环境的污染问题。这个活动同时也为培养参与者思想中的环保意识起了一定的促进作用。
In providing a solution for the community, the UKZN team tackled thepollution problem that threatened the health and environment of the Durbansouth community. This exercise also had the added benefit of fostering anenvironmentally conscious mind-set in the participating learners.

实现进步（Enabling Progress）
生命之树活动通过购买700株树苗一次性为荒野基金会解决了库存过剩的问题，同时在社会中，他们动员了3000名在校小学生成为保护环境行为的积极参与者。从而，这个项目要求该社区学着掌管自己的事物，负起索赔等各项责任以及与业界合作解决环境问题，同时，还需要他们帮助穷困百姓，对社区而言，这是个很大的挑战。
In one fell swoop, the Trees for Life Project addressed the issue ofoverstock for Wildlands through the purchasing of 700 trees and socially, theymobilized over 3000 primary school learners to become active participants inconserving their environment. The nature of this project challenging thecommunity to take charge, claim responsibility and collaborate with industry tosolve the environmental problems whilst assisting in the care of the needy.

今天的第二篇来喽！来点高科技的，证明我们并不是专门帮受众捡破烂的

农作物干燥机项目（Crop-drier Project）
斯威士兰大学
Universityof Swaziland

发现机遇、问题和改变的可能（Seeing Possibilities）
斯威士兰进口的电力80%来自南非，20%来自莫桑比克。电力是一种昂贵和稀缺的资源。另一个令人困扰的问题是粮食不安全，非洲尤其如此。慢性疾病的控制需要消耗健康食品，但健康食品仍是稀缺资源。
Swazilandimports 80% of its electricity from South Africa & 20% from Mozambique. Electricity is an expensive & scarceresource. Another perturbing issue is that of food insecurity, more so inAfrica. The escalation of chronic illnesses requiresconsumption of healthy foods but yet “healthy foods” scarce resource.

【每日项目海外篇】
天堂的蔬果（PARADISE FRUITS AND VEGETABLES）
一句话项目
The project
将过剩蔬果变成健康的食品
Turning leftover produce into a healthy foodchoice.

面临的挑战
The Challenge
南非的干旱和社会经济情况导致粮食产量下降，然而食品价格大幅攀升。比勒陀利亚大学的学生面临的挑战是：设计一个可以持续的解决 他们所选择的社区中的 超过2200人的 粮食安全问题。
Drought and socio-economic circumstances in South Africa have resulted ina decline in the food production but a significant rise in food prices. Thechallenge for the students of the University of Pretoria was to devise asustainable solution to the food insecurity affecting their chosen community ofover 2,200 people.

发现可能
Seeing Possibilities
为了解决这个紧迫的“食品不安全”问题，比勒陀利亚大学Enactus团队制定了一个计划：将剩下的蔬果再加工并进行包装，作为一种生产 经济可行并且有营养的食物 的手段。
To address this pressing issue of food insecurity, the University ofPretoria Enactus team devised an initiative that reprocesses and packagesleftover produce as a means to provide economically feasible and nutritiousfood.

采取行动
Taking Action
当项目组发现了一个本地的食品市场，通常每月会处理两吨剩余的蔬果，比勒陀利亚大学的学生采取行动！
这些学生到了市场，收集剩余的蔬果，并对这些蔬果进行再加工。项目组制定了一个“将这些蔬果脱水并包装”的计划。然后项目组还与当地学校签订了一份试用的合同，允许学生用销售学习用品的收入来购买这健康的食物。该项目组还说服学校用这些收入（销售学习用品的收入）来建一个可以给学生提供蔬菜、也能销售蔬菜从而获利的“现场菜园”。
When the team discovered a local food-market typically disposed of twotons of their surplus produce per month, the University of Pretoria studentstook action!
The students approached the market about donating surplus fruit toreprocess. The team developed a plan to dehydrate and packaged this food. Theteam then entered into a pilot contract with a local school to allow studentsto purchase this healthy food option with the sales used for school supplies.The team also persuaded the school to use these profits to develop an on-sitevegetable garden to have produce for the students and to sell at a profit.

实现进步
Enabling Progress
“天堂的蔬果”项目已经影响了超过2200人。此外，这间学校已经完全掌管了自己的“用蔬果盈利”的商业模式，而且这种模式现在被使用在其他较贫困的学校。
The “Paradise Fruits and Vegetables” project has impacted more than 2,200people. In addition, the school is now fully managing its own profitablevegetable business and this model is now being used at other disadvantagedschools.
