What was the goal of the project?
In today’s fast-changing world, young people need creativity, adaptability, and initiative to solve real-life problems, create their own opportunities, and build a sustainable future for themselves and their communities, which is why Back to Business—an Erasmus+ youth exchange project—aims to equip participants with the mindset and skills of a modern entrepreneur through interactive learning, collaboration, and hands-on activities focused on social entrepreneurship, developing both strategic competencies like financial literacy, strategic planning, and project design, alongside essential soft skills such as creative thinking, communication, teamwork, and adaptability to launch social enterprises that make a positive local impact.
