The Problem
In the post-pandemic EU, the number of young people who identify as NEETs has skyrocketed.
Millions of young Europeans have either lost their jobs or are excluded from education & training.
Meanwhile the labor market is undergoing major transformations: Now more than ever green & ecopreneurial skills are highly appreciated
The Idea
When it comes to NEETs, the lack of entrepreneurial skills combined with the lack of motivation have both immediate and longer-term economic and psychological consequences.
The project aspires to tackle modern socio-economic challenges that render life difficult for NEETs by empowering them with the entrepreneurial skills needed for socially and environmentally responsible ventures
The Objective
Eco-NEETs@Work aims at confronting unemployment among young NEETs.
It suggests an inclusive, innovative and sustainable solution that will utilise the benefits of experiential learning in order to enhance the NEETs' entrepreneurial skills and digital competencies.
The project will produce 3 results: Firstly, the Ecopreneurship Training, then e-Tools for young job seekers and finally the Ecopreneuthon Phase.
