    "Nowadays unemployment is one of the biggest and most challenging issues European community is facing. According to World Bank Group information, the youth unemployment rate is double (or even more than double in some countries) than the general unemployment in EU-28. As one of the solutions, the partner institutions see empowering women in entrepreneurship as one of the possible and most effective ways to solve the problem, since in the strategic perspective, it can increase the general rate of employment, create new working places, increase the level of social inclusion of women and their participation in the life of local communities, and improve general economic situation. In order to achieve this, there were selected partner organizations that have similar objectives and are focused on problems of unemployment and social inclusion of women in the life of society. ""The Gender of Entrepreneurship - Empowering Women for A Better Future"" was a multiple-action project coordinated by an NGO Creative Minds (Yerevan, Armenia). The project included 8 partner organizations from the Programme and Eastern Partnership Countries, such as Armenia, Georgia, Ukraine, Moldova, Slovenia, Croatia, Poland, and Czech Republic. The project consisted of several stages: preparation, training course, local activities, seminar, follow-up activities and dissemination activities.The training course took place in Yerevan, Armenia in January, 2018. During this activity, representatives of partner organizations have shared the current issues connected to unemployment in their countries and local communities they are working with, and learnt about creative and innovative entrepreneurship as a possible way to improve the situation on a labour market with a specific focus on a gender gap in self-employment caused by lack of opportunities for women, social environment and cultural perspective. After the training course, participants together with partner institutions organized local activities in their communities. After that, the 7-day seminar took place in Ptuj, Slovenia in May, 2019. As the follow-up activity, there was organised an one-day event in Yerevan. During this event there was made presentation of the project results, materials created by participants, achievements, as well as the Handbook for Trainers and Youth Workers.Strategically, there will be one common impact and big change that will start on a local level and keep growing. Since we expect the participants of the project to empower and inspire women for the entrepreneurial initiatives, we expect that step by step the number of female entrepreneurs will increase that will also influence the employment statistics, situation on a labour market and general economic situation in Europe and in the region, particularly."
