The Entrepreneurship Grants aim to provide support to youth actors that work on strengthening the economic opportunities for young people!
The Entrepreneurship Grants provide grants opportunities for 31,500 EURO to which individual youth-led organisations can apply.
What do we mean with supporting economic opportunities of young people?
The entrepreneurship grants focus on youth-led actions that address a three-fold selection of key challenges young people face around the world in their economic participation and taking control of their own future:
- Access to skills development opportunities that are according to the needs of young people and local economic realities and support the start-up of new youth-led enterprises.
- The responsible growth of youth-led (social) enterprises that consider social and environmental boundaries.
- Advocating for an enabling environment for young entrepreneurs to start and grow their business.
During this third and last grant round, the focus will be on the third topic: Advocating for an enabling environment for young entrepreneurs to start and grow their business.
We ask interested youth-led organisations to submit their ideas to tackle the barriers that young entrepreneurs face and show how their advocacy ideas can address these barriers and ensure an enabling environment for young entrepreneurs.
What can you expect when you receive a grant?
- Your organisation will receive financial support to implement your project with young people in your own community and beyond.
- Your organisation will become part of a platform for you to share your solution with peers, decision-makers and other stakeholders across Africa and Europe.
- You will benefit from mentorship and other forms of capacity development support according to the needs of your organisation.
