Rural Youth Future
The Rural Youth Future project aims at improving employment opportunities for young people in rural areas and supporting sustainable rural development.
Operated by: KMOP Policy Center
CHALLENGE
While social enterprises do exist in various forms across the Western Balkans, their growth potential is hindered by several obstacles, impeding their ability to effectively tackle social issues and provide viable employment opportunities for young people.
According to the Regional Study on Social Entrepreneurship in the Western Balkans conducted by the Regional Incubator for Social Entrepreneurs in 2020, a crucial challenge that should be addressed is the limited awareness and understanding of this entrepreneurial model among youth, stakeholders, and the general public. This lack of awareness inhibits the growth of the sector and prevents it from fully harnessing its potential for social impact.
