WHAT IS RAISE?
RAISE (Raising the Advantages of Youth through Innovation and Social Entrepreneurship) is a project implemented by Beyond Barriers Association in collaboration with partners from WB and EU, with the financial support of Erasmus+ Youth in Action Programme, under KA2 -Capacity Building of Youth Workers. RAISE was composed of 3 activities, one Training for Trainers, one Youth Exchange and one Seminar, all of them aiming to provide a space for young people and youth workers to learn and develop together, to experience entrepreneurship education in an intercultural, international context, and to focus on exchange of good practice and identifying solutions to common challenges. SEE a Game Manual and Living Lab methodology are the core new elements that were introduced to the project and that shall allow young trainers to make use of them in their work in entrepreneurship education. The main aim of the project was to improve the employability and competences of young people in partner organization through youth work and non-formal educational methods. The following were the project objectives:
o Developing youth workers' social entrepreneurship skills, including exchanging experience of young people's entrepreneurship initiatives implemented for the benefit of their communities and their peers, using the `See a Game' handbook and the Living Lab methodology ? the ToT course will focus on how to use the manual, what competencies are used etc.
o Developing youth workers' innovation skills ? the project will be based on innovative and creative non-formal activities, including games and social theatre
o Fostering a sense of responsibility and initiative in young people through social entrepreneurship and innovation ? we will discuss active citizenship principles and practice and how social entrepreneurship can help young people to address local and European problems
o Building a network of organisations and projects developing innovation and social entrepreneurship using `See a Game', Living Labs concept and opportunities presented by the Erasmus+ Programme ? we will present Erasmus+ Youth, assist participants in developing projects and also help in networking.
