Creative Potential

This project focuses on developing the competences needed to become a social entrepreneur 
and to share the tools for creating, implementing and running innovative social enterprise 
projects while also providing experiential methods to promote and facilitate 
Youth Empowerment, Active Citizenship, Engagement, Entrepreneurship and Healthy Living. The world is becoming more challenging every day, especially for young people. There are 
record levels of youth unemployment and many young people feel a sense of anxiety or 
hopelessness about their future. It is important to implement effective and transferable 
methods which encourage positive attitudes, mental and physical health, and which support 
young people in accessing their creativity and vitality. By helping young people to identify and develop their skills, qualities and entrepreneurial ideas we can create a more positive 
future for them as individuals and for the communities they live and work in. Objectives: - Introduce Social Entrepreneurship and its 
role in personal empowerment, social change 
and creating resilient communities.
 - Provide a learning journey and practical tools for taking creative, innovative social enterprise business ideas into practical action and delivery.
 - Support participants to identify and strengthen the qualities needed to be a social entrepreneur e.g. creativity, innovation, passion, motivation, leadership, interpersonal skills, project management, communication, a strong sense of citizenship and problem solving abilities.
 - Offer a framework and set of resources which provide ongoing support to participants in developing, or helping others to develop, social enterprises and social entrepreneurship.

- Nurture the innate sense of initiative and entrepreneurship that relates to all aspects of a healthy life including Employability.
