Best practices in teaching entrepreneurship and creating entrepreneurial ecosystems in Europe

Abstract

The publication Best Practices in Teaching Entrepreneurship and Creating Entrepreneurial Ecosystems in Europe is the result of the project initiated by Fundacja Światowego Tygodnia Przedsiębiorczości (Global Entrepreneurship Week Foundation) and performed in cooperation with Fundacja Inkubator Technologiczny (Technological Incubator Foundation), the University of Malta’s Edward de Bono Institute for the Design and Development of Thinking and British organisation Peace Child International. The preparation of this publication was financed by the European Commission under the Erasmus+ project. It should be noted, however, that the publication reflects the view of the authors only and that the European Commission and the National Agency (Foundation for the Development of the Education System) are not responsible for any use of the provided information in any manner. This publication is a response to the problem of the low level of entrepreneurship among young Europeans, leading to inadequate adaptation of the capabilities to the needs of the contemporary labour market, making ill-considered choices as regards educational and career paths, having to undertake jobs below their qualifications and ambitions and finally – a high level of unemployment.
