Youth and Social Entrepreneurship
YES HUB study based on youtheclub.eu learning platform
Introduction
Nowadays, social entrepreneurship has been acknowledged as an effective means to the end of creating new jobs, improving the standard of living, and encouraging citizens’ participation in the decision-making process at all levels. It can also contribute to the integration of marginal and precarious strata of the population, the creation of wealth, and re-investment or making new investments in various countries across the globe.
In order to enhance social entrepreneurship in targeted countries, it would be absolutely necessary to supply the young people who dream of becoming social entrepreneurs with appropriate competencies, contacts, and the will to launch social entrepreneurs commensurate to their own profile & the needs of their milieu.
Research Objective
