ended

The project EYES is a 24-months project involving 6 countries from EU and southern Meda, based upon a series of considerations related to the challenges that youth and society in general had to face during the crisis created by the outbreak of the COVID 19 pandemic and in the perspective of working together for the reconstruction and a new start. Our project aims at exploiting the potential of Social Entrepreneurship and its appeal towards new generations, including a youth work approach, to provide an answer for youth own career and the possibility to answer societal challenges at the same time. With EYES we want to equip NGO and youth workers with tools to promote and educate youth in Social Entrepreneurship and sustainable growth. The consortium will combine entrepreneurial practices, Youth work approach and the methodology of Non-formal education to provide a set of competences useful to build their own social entrepreneurship project. We will analyse the concept of social entrepreneurship and especially three aspects: - Skills needed to create an entrepreneurial venture with a social impact, based on ENTRECOMP model - Models for entrepreneurial ideas, especially the CANVAS model applied to social enterprise - Different aspects of social impact connected with Sustainable Development Goals Our specific objectives are: - To map needs, ideas, tools and good practices related with social entrepreneurship from Mediterranean and EU countries - To develop new educational models to provide necessary skills and knowledge to young people to develop social enterprises and to youth activists and youth workers to act as multipliers - To support the creation of local and online cross-sectorial networks working for the creation of new entrepreneurial ventures for creation of new entrepreneurial ventures for creation of social impact - To reinforce Euromed cooperation to provide answers to common youth challenges such as unemployment, migration and post-covid reconstruction.
