The “Creative Potential" training course gathers together 29 young people, youth workers, volunteers, trainers and youth field professionals from 8 different countries.The project focuses on developing the competences needed to become a social entrepreneur and to share the tools for creating, implementing and running innovative social enterprise projects while also providing experiential methods to promote and facilitate Youth Empowerment, Active Citizenship, Engagement, Entrepreneurship and Healthy Living.The world is becoming more challenging every day, especially for young people. There are record levels of youth unemployment and many young people feel a sense of anxiety or hopelessness about their future. It is important to implement effective and transferable methods which encourage positive attitudes, mental and physical health, and which support young people in accessing their creativity and vitality. By helping young people to identify and develop their skills, qualities and entrepreneurial ideas we can create a more positive future for them as individuals and for the communities they live and work in. Social entrepreneurship and enterprises offer a route to inner resilience & initiative that can transform people and communities and drive profound and lasting change.While there is the focus on career, employability and the job market, we are clear that this course will work on multiple levels. The competences developed will support youth workers to work with a range of needs and abilities and provide tools which to help young people in a range of ways including: (1) starting a social enterprise, community project or other group/organisation; (2) engaging and thriving in their own lives and communities; (3) taking initiative, developing creativity and entrepreneurism - whatever their circumstances and abilities.
