Young People's Business
Date du début: 1 déc. 2013,

Youth unemployment is an acute problem both in developed and developing countries and constitutes the predominant reason for social exclusion. Thus, all societies are challenged to better exploit the huge potential offered by the younger generations in order to attain sustainable and inclusive growth and. Inclusion of young people with fewer opportunities is the key theme of the project, since activities target explicitly disadvantaged youngsters who are threatened or affected by dismal employment prospects, risk of social exclusion, high vulnerability and low income levels. Direct target group are 296 young people (between 20 and 28) and youth workers in EU, Latin America, Africa and Asia. The 12-months project "Young People’s Business" will be implemented by 4 partners from EU (DE, IT, PL, PT)and 4 from Third Countries (AR, BR, KE, PH) aiming to set up in the future social enterprises and support services for youth in their local contexts.After a 6-days Int’l Business Incubator Training, participating youth and youth workers will jointly develop business plans in the areas of green, social or creative business. This process will be carried on the basis of bilateral partnership. There will also be on-site mission to BR, AR, BR and PH by youth and youth workers from the respective twinning partner. Extensive use of new media (web conferencing, social media, blogs etc.) and the development of a web-based Social Entrepreneurship Resource with sections for professionals and a special portal for youth will ensure effective communication, a high level of collaborative working and widest dissemination of good practice and innovation.Institutional development and NGO capacity building will help to increase opportunities for young people and especially for acquiring skills to fully participate in all spheres of society and economy on an equal basis and thus to improve their employability and development prospects.
