Empow4kids

Being entrepreneurial is a valuable skill for EU citizens, both for their personal and professional development. Entrepreneurship education plays a key role for Europe’s competiveness and for the continuous growth of Europe’s economy. Promoting entrepreneurship in education as a key competence encourages EU citizens to be enterprising and to formulate innovative solutions to societal problems and to design products of added socio-economic value.

The EMPOW4KIDS project aims to promote in entry-level secondary school students (in the age span between 11 and 13) an entrepreneurial mindset and behaviour and a proactive and non-conformist spirit promoting actions for their pursuit in the first person, with a particular focus on the school, but adopting a proactive approach that leads students to take action personally in the pre-adolescents’ daily life.

In the period from March 2022 to June 2024 The EMPOW4KIDS Toolkit (consisting of both contents and tools to be used in classes) will be jointly created by the partnership and then tested with a first sample of students in each country and finally the collected and thus processed inputs / findings will be addressed to better shape the common final Guidelines intended as the practical tool to promote sustainability and institutionalisation of the tested Toolkit.
