The future in our "hands": Creating European Entrepreneurs

The economic crisis in Europe has revealed the need to deal with entrepreneurship, not only in adults but also in children's education. During the last decades a great number of students graduated from the University. However, a great number of them can not find a job and they are unemployed. As a result, more people tend to deal with new occupations and new ideas about new kinds of businesses. The need for training young people in this respect is obvious since they still can't find proper, well paid jobs. Consequently, students in schools should be subjected to alternative activities in order to equip them with the tools for discovering their talents and the means of putting them to work for their success. The activities proposed in this project will open the minds of young students to the joy of entrepreneurship at a time in their lives when they are full of imagination and open to new possibilities. The project will help participating students to develop a number of skills including literacy, presentation, technology, research skills, numeracy, consumer awareness, storytelling, listening skills, creative thinking, problem solving, team building and collaboration skills. This project requires not only the involvement of students and teachers, but also the involvement of parents and community members in a great number of activities. Activities will take place both in the classroom and out of it (laboratories, workshops, in the streets, markets, gardens, art labs, farms.
