Summary
The project aims to build the capacity of the partner organizations to empower marginalised young women
through entrepreneurship and raise their awareness upon their role in sustainable development and
economic growth.
The objectives of “Equal Start” project are:
1. To develop a Guide for educators in entrepreneurship education that is targeted to reach marginalized
young women
2. To give 20 youth workers from the partner organizations tools for empowering marginalized young
women through entrepreneurship and support their business creation.
3. To promote entrepreneurship and a sense of responsibility among 50 marginalized young women in the
local communities of the partner organizations.
4. To strengthen the cooperation between organizations of Europe and South Asia, and their capacity to
promote women empowerment through entrepreneurship.
The partners will develop a Guide for educators in entrepreneurial education containing (1) non-formal
methods to trigger an entrepreneurial spirit among marginalized young women; (2) information/tools/
methods to support marginalized young women in the creation of small businesses; (3) information upon
the role of marginalised young women in achieving global growth; (4) a further reading list.
Training Course in India
A 12-day training course will be organized in India aiming to train 20 youth workers from the participating
countries in providing entrepreneurial education to marginalised young women. The training course will
raise awareness among the participants and present why is important to do entrepreneurial education with
marginalised young women, give tools to instil a sense of entrepreneurial sense among marginalised young
women and as well as practical experience on developing a business starting from ideas, developing a
business plan, pitching the business idea and secure financing.
The training will be based on the methods and information developed during research phase of this project
and it will imply group work, practical exercises, learn by doing, plenary presentations, as well as
debriefings. The training course will give the partners the possibility to test the Guide developed during
research and apply the methods for the first time.
As a result of the training, organizations will gain youth workers who have competences to do
entrepreneurial education with marginalized young women in their local communities and further support
their business development.
