The SESI Project is a programme focused on promoting a model of inclusion of disadvantaged young people by tapping into the potential of social entrepreneurship for revitalization and the solution of local challenges. Financed by the Erasmus+ Key Action 2 program, YouthProAktiv, AIDE, Fundacja reGeneracja, Espacio Geranios and Imagine Apps have teamed together to implement this 31-month project.
The Sesi Project focuses on the following specific objectives:
- Establish a strategic and sustainable alliance to understand and promote social entrepreneurship as a facilitator for the inclusion of young people from disadvantaged backgrounds through the collection and exchange of best practices.
- Develop a combined and replicable training programme that can provide knowledge and resources to youth workers on how to teach social entrepreneurship to young people.
- Build capacities for rural and disadvantaged youth to initiate social projects through interaction and collaboration with youth workers and experts, promoting active citizenship, the initiative of young people, and youth entrepreneurship, including social entrepreneurship.
- Disseminate and promote a training model that defines “social entrepreneurship as a driver of social inclusion” and benefits both
youth workers and young people, with the capacity to influence at the level of public policies.
