Do School Education for Impact Fellowship Program

The DO School is an educational institution with a campus in Hamburg, Germany and New York City, United States.

The School provides one-year educational training programs for young social entrepreneurs from around the world. It holds programs centred on a wide variety of themes including environmental sustainability and peace-building.

The DO School was founded by Florian Hoffmann, who is also the co-founder of the Dekeyser & Friends Foundation. The DO School grew out of a previous fellowship program, the D&F Academy.

Do school offers a fantastic fellowship for talented social entrepreneurs to solve the PACKAGING CHALLENGE set by H&M to create an innovative packaging system for one of their product lines.
