In this context promotion of younth entrepreneurship has become a priority on the EU policy agenda. Moreover, the general perception at European level is that entrepreneurship education is not a tool to solve the youth unemployment crisis, but to create opportunities for young people to transform their ideas in successful business, to support job creation and development of human capital. In this context the partner organizations get unite in order to address 2 directions: first to develop the professional skills and competencies of 21 youth workers on the topic of youth entrepreneurship education through the organization of a training course and on second to develop entrepreneurial skills of 35 young people through multicultural hands-on experiences in planning and running a business.
