As we can observe in employment strategies and youth employment contained in the Framework Europe2020. This strategy recognizes the importance of entrepreneurship and self-employment to achieve smart, sustainable and inclusive growth and there are several initiatives to address these issues: Agenda for new skills and jobs, Youth on the Move: education and employment initiatives and the European Platform against Poverty and Social Exclusion. With all these strategies, the European Commission intends to focus its efforts on the creation of enterprises by unemployed people, sustainability and quality of work of self-employed businesses and supporting social entrepreneurs.
In a broad sense, entrepreneurship should be considered as a mindset that supports everyone in day-to-day life at home and in society, and provides a foundation for entrepreneurs establishing a social or commercial activity. Entrepreneurship is a key competence for lifelong learning, as defined in the 2006 European Framework for Key Competences.
Education for entrepreneurship is already high on the agenda in most EU Member States. A wide variety of programs and activities exist across Europe. However, there is a need of promoting these initiatives more systematically. The European Commission is committed to promoting education for entrepreneurship at all levels, from primary school to university and beyond.
From the states members of the European Union has sued a cooperative approach to the tourism industry. This perception has served to move towards an open EU approach to sector. The entry into force of the Lisbon Treaty has laid the foundation of a true European tourism policy. Thus, in accordance with Article 195 of the Founding Treaty of the European Union, the same may hereafter:
1 Promote the competitiveness of companies in this sector and create an environment favorable to their development;
2. Promote cooperation between Member States, including through the exchange of best practices;
3 . And develop an integrated approach to tourism by ensuring consideration of this sector in its other policies.
This framework provides an opportunity for initiatives designed to benefit all the countries of the Union. The first one was forged in the high-level conference on European tourism, held in Madrid on April 14, 2010. Then the Ministers of Tourism of the EU supported the ' Madrid Declaration', which makes a number of recommendations concerning the implementation of a consolidated European tourism policy emphasizes the need to strengthen the sustainable competitiveness of the sector and recognizes the value added of EU action to promote tourism, which positively complements the action of the Member States through an integrated approach to tourism .
Subsequently.
But if we take a look to the data of the failure entrepreneurs businesses the reality is, that more than half of the companies that are created do not exceed the first five years of operation. Specifically, 80% of small businesses fail within the first five years and 90% fail within 10 years. The data also handles alarming figure: 50% of new freelancers who are discharged daily, close within three years.
In this context we have realized that it is essential to provide entrepreneurs not only with the tools and methods to open their own companies but to provide with tools and methods for keeping their business open after the third year.
With this background, the ENTRETOUR project is aimed to get the following objectives:
