About the project
Social Entrepreneurship Network is part of a Erasmus Plus project to contribute to youth unemployment reduction through the sustainable development of the work integration social enterprises (WISE) sector in Eastern Partnership countries. Through non-formal education, we hope to transfer knowledge of social business planning from capable social entrepreneurs to disadvantaged youth, within and beyond WISE. We also hope to develop a network of social enterprises and their supporting organisations, such as donors and training providers, for sharing educational resources and virtual cooperation tools. The project aims to build, develop, and improve the capacities of youth organisations and social enterprises so they are better able to improve the school-to-work system in their countries.
