The EMPOWER project has kicked off

The EMPOWER project partners have finally gotten the chance to meet each other, signifying the starting line of a two-year-long, promising collaboration.

The consortium involves partners from five EU countries (Italy, Greece, Cyprus, Portugal and Bulgaria) and is set out to encourage the development of recently established and existing social enterprises through new learning partnerships between the world of work and the worlds of youth provision.

Four project results will be developed:

• Training Package for Sustainability in Social Enterprises
• Social Enterprises Simulation Game
• MOOCs for fostering social entrepreneurship
• Policy Paper: Building a sustainable social enterprise sector
