About this project

This project addresses entrepreneurship as a tool towards integration. The target group is Third Country National and local young people interested in entrepreneurship. 
 
The objectives of the project are:


  • To compile research on the needs of young entrepreneurs and on the resources available in each participating country
  • To promote youth entrepreneurship as a means of employment and financial independence 
  • To promote the social inclusion of TCN youth in five different countries
 
The project will involve research, training and mentorship.  The research component will provide a snapshot of the opportunities for entrepreneurship for both groups in the five participating countries. National reports will be drawn up for each country and a comparative report will analyse developments and opportunities at the European level as well as providing a comparative analysis of the participating countries. 
 
The training component will cater for both TCNs and local youth and will be developed on the basis of the research findings and delivered across the participating countries as well as online. The training will cover a range of topics including the modalities and frameworks for setting up a business, accessing finance and management. The mentorship components of the project will involve pairing the participants with with a relevant mentor (established entrepreneur in the field of their choice). 
 
Our project is unique in that it encourages TCN youths and local youths in five different countries to explore the opportunity of entrepreneurship together. Besides promoting entrepreneurship as a means of financial independence for young people it will also support the integration and social inclusion of TCNs in the participating countries.
