The Erasmus+ project YOULEADERS Youth Community Leaders in rural areas of South-Western Europe, in which the DITES Centre participates as a partner, ended with the final conference, ‘Youth and Entrepreneurship’, held in Trapani at Beehive Valore Sud on 24 September.
The project, which started in October 2022, involved more than 90 young people aged 14 to 19 from rural and geographically marginalised areas of Sicily (Italy), Galicia (Spain) and the Region of Leiria (Portugal) in an empowerment process aimed at increasing their entrepreneurial skills and encouraging their spirit of initiative.
The final event, ‘Youth and Entrepreneurship,’ shared the project’s phases and results and was an opportunity for young people and stakeholders involved in the initiative to meet and exchange ideas. The platform for sharing open educational resources used in the empowerment process was also launched during the conference.
The resources available in the consortium’s four languages—English, Italian, Portuguese, and Spanish—are divided into eight modules, which can be downloaded and adapted to specific educational contexts. The themes of the modules are as follows: Theory of Change and Design Thinking, Soft Skills, Social Innovation, Self-Entrepreneurship, Digital Skills, Environmental Education, Sustainable Development Goals, and Gender Equality.
