Social entrepreneurship is an important and effective way of enhancing social participation, inclusion and integration of socially marginalized young people in our communities. Social entrepreneurship provides the incentive for young people to become empowered and strive to look for innovative solutions to some of the challenges they face in their communities. Becoming innovative and developing entrepreneurial skills inspires and exhilarates disadvantaged young people to become more active, empowered, creative solution seekers and problem solvers. On the other hand, lack of entrepreneurial skills and social innovations has led to further marginalization and social exclusion of young people with minority backgrounds in many communities in Europe. This has led to various social ills including high unemployment, criminality and insecurity. The untapped entrepreneurial potential in some communities and among some young people is a great waste that should not be further tolerated. To unleash entrepreneurial potential of these marginalized youth is critical to remove the existing obstacles in their lives and to add variety to the culture of entrepreneurship in Europe. It is palpable that the entrepreneurial potential of all young people in Europe utilized to the greatest extent. In this regard, Migrafrica is organizing a one week training seminar in Bonn, Germany that will develop the skills and build the capacities of African Diaspora youth in Europe to enhance their social entrepreneurial potential and promote their social participation. The training course focuses on the current youth problem by characterizing the weak growth and development of entrepreneurial skills among immigrant youth and encourage and empowers these young people to entrepreneur, innovate and take more responsibility to design and implement sustainable social projects for disadvantaged young people in their communities. The broader objectives of the training course are; • To learn more about the relationship between entrepreneurship and individual stability and sustainable development; • To increase knowledge about social responsibility, integration, equal opportunities, social entrepreneurship in Europe Youth cooperation context; • To empower young people and build their capacities in undertaking successful social projects and exchange ideas regarding projects management ; • To increase their knowledge about inter-cultural understanding and communication. • To build capacities of participants to make them capable of working out their own idea for a small-scale Europe youth cooperation projects; The project's aim include; - Enhance the interest of participants in development and cooperation work and in social projects in their communities and to stimulate young people to become active and participative citizens as well as social entrepreneurs. - Introduce the context of the social entrepreneurship within youth emancipation and youth participation. The workshop will invite 24 young people between the age of 20 and 30 with immigrant background from Germany, Portugal, Cyprus, Sweden, Finland and Ireland to train themselves and learn up-to-date innovative tools and skills for social entrepreneurship. The project includes two activities. The preparatory meeting and a one week training workshop.
