EUROPEAN HUB MODEL FOR SOCIALLY RESPONSIBLE YOUNG ENTREPRENEURS

HUB – European HUB Model for Socially Responsible Young Entrepreneurs

​The most important project output aimed at tackling the issue of youth unemployment will be the HUB MODEL KIT, through which partners will on one hand deliver a “ready-to-go” approach that youth organizations can incorporate in their activities (fully or partially), and on the other hand it will educate other entities – such as public institutions and businesses - on the role and potential which youth organizations have in tackling the problem of youth unemployment through effective information and educational activities that develop and support the skills needed to become a successful social entrepreneur.
