The course provides systematic information and guidance on the main steps of starting an entrepreneurial endeavor in the four selected sectors (social, green, digital, and cultural). You can expect to learn the basics of entrepreneurship and its four different sub-categories. 2020 marked the beginning of unprecedented health, economic, social, and cultural crises caused by the spread of COVID-19 throughout Europe and the whole world.

The situation that has arisen placed new challenges in the socio-economic and cultural sectors. The economic recession has put unemployment rates high. The consequences of the lockdowns across Europe have created gaps in the education and training of young people and placed significant obstacles to their entry into the labor market. However, the creative minds of young people and entrepreneurs have found ways to cope with the current situation and create positive value out of it.

The project Young Entrepreneurship in Time of Crisis (YETC) aims to facilitate youth activism and foster an entrepreneurial mindset through networking, sharing best practices, and developing innovative NILF tools. The project results will help young people overcome the uncertainty caused by the unstable socio-economic situation across Europe and create a positive value by filling the gaps and promoting new entrepreneurial endeavors. The YETC project addresses the needs of young people and youth workers in finding the realization of their ideas and initiatives through entrepreneurship and active participation.

Through a series of comprehensive chapters, participants will gain an understanding of digital entrepreneurship, develop key competencies and skills, explore the digital market, learn how to turn their dreams into actionable plans, create effective business strategies, launch their ventures, and discover channels for continuous improvement.

Do the course on  your own or make it more fun and link up with a buddy and go through this learning process together.

This MOOC explores the complex topic of colonization, decolonization and how colonial mindset (referred in the course as coloniality) still influences society and international volunteering specifically. 

Through this MOOC we want to create a space for (potential) volunteers to get familiar with these concepts and reflect on their motivation and/or experiences as international volunteers. The aim is to initiate the deconstruction of the colonial mindset which is still present in many IVS  contexts. The MOOC wants to encourage volunteers to examine their motivations to do international volunteering and look critically at the International Voluntary Service projects that organisations offer. 

This online course is meant to be complementary to other pre-departure courses that IVS organisations organise or as an introductory course for people interested in international volunteering especially in a global context. You can do this course on your own but it's also fun to do it together with someone else. Complementing this online course with some in-person conversations can be really enriching.
