Social Entrepreneurship

Social Entrepreneurship

In social entrepreneurship projects, youth develop innovative, solution-oriented, and financially sustainable models for enterprises to benefit their community. Through these projects, youth address challenges in their communities and learn new skills in leadership and team building to implement their ideas. Many projects in the civic education and environment thematic units also lead to final products that encourage social entrepreneurship.

My City and Me

The purpose of the My City and Me Project is to research the advantages and disadvantages of living in a particular city, to participate in and learn more about local governments, and examine what these government agencies are doing for youth in their area. In this project, youth create new social projects together with local governments to improve activities for youth in their area.
