Boosting youth entrepreneurship in rural areas through coworking and startup incubators in the era of circular economy

About the project

GO-CIRCULAR project proposal means to be a follow-up of Youth Re-Working Rural project, aiming at fostering youth entrepreneurship and local development in rural areas through co-working and spaces reconversion. GO-CIRCULAR innovates and complement Youth Re-Working Rural, levering of products and results achieved and enlarging its area of action. 

Project’s main objective is to promote employment and entrepreneurship in European rural areas by empowering young people with the capabilities to create co-working & start-up incubators exploiting potentialities offered by circular economy, with concrete examples in three specific areas: furniture, agri-business & building/housing, as these economic sectors represent strategic fields for European smart economic and social development.

Project’s specific objectives are:

> to promote employment and entrepreneurship in European rural areas by increasing young people capabilities to reconvert empty spaces to host co-working & start-up incubators, exploiting potentialities offered by circular economy; 

> to promote youth skills and competencies for the development of co-working spaces & start-up incubators focused on three specific areas: furniture, agri-business & building/housing; 

> to equip young people with relevant circular economy skills, that are at a crossroads between citizenship competencies and entrepreneurial competences; 

> to foster youth capabilities to operate at transnational level for developing joint concrete circular coworking projects.
