FEENICS – Furthering youth Empowerment through ENhancing Intrapreneurial Commitment and Skills, is a 2-year Erasmus+ KA2 Youth project, which aims at providing an integrated support, tailored to the needs and specificities of young people in the age group 20-29, who either already possess working experience (currently employed or not), or have never been employed (job-seekers and discouraged individuals), through development and validation of innovative integrated training tools and material. The objective of the envisaged project activities will be to support sustainable investment in young people’s training, by means of pilot workshops and preparation of youth trainers and peer support providers, in order to increase motivation and self-awareness, create incentives for acquiring new intrapreneurship-related skills and promote efficient and sustainable integration of young people into employment and society. FEENICS’ innovativeness is linked both to the development of intrapreneurial skills within the business entities and to creating possibilities for encouraging and supporting young people’s social intrapreneurial behaviour. The innovativeness of the project might be further sought in its multidimensional and cross-disciplinary approach to supporting young adults across Europe in their striving for employment and social inclusion through encouraging intrapreneurial behaviour amongst them. FEENICS can further claim innovativeness in being an original EU-wide effort to come up with a transnational initiative, focused on enhancing the intrapreneurial spirit and hence employability of young people in different countries, located in different parts of Europe, finding themselves in very diverse national and cultural contexts. Furthermore, the project proposal is practically complementary to all the entrepreneurship-related initiatives and projects, implemented by the members of the consortium, as with FEENICS, the consortium is aiming to build up on these past activities by innovatively shifting the focus and field of application of the supportive actions from the open market context to the intra-corporate environment. The FEENICS consortium comprises 6 partner organisations from 6 countries (Iceland, Bulgaria, Croatia, Estonia, Greece and Portugal), gathered around the idea, that developing intrapreneurial mindset among young people can play a key role for their employment and social integration. The partnership achieves a good balance and mutual complementarity in terms of experiences/competences possessed and allocation of tasks and responsibilities. The project’s intellectual outputs (IOs) envisage firstly a Survey and Gap Analysis (IO1), to be conducted by means of in-depth investigation and surveys/interviews with young people and actual/prospective employers of such individuals. High quality, practically-oriented training workshops, preceded by preparation of trainers will then be delivered, using curriculum and training content elaborated, based on the Gap Analysis’ results (IO2). In order to enhance the sustainability and efficiency of the training activities envisaged within the project, a youth trainers’/peer support providers’ collaborative network will be established and an innovative e-Learning Platform created (IO3), containing all the developed learning resources and making training content and experience accessible to other countries and stakeholders for adaptation and further implementation. Finally, a Youth Empowerment Kit will be developed (IO4), containing, among other things, inspiring case studies and conclusions/recommendations to policymakers on measures to increase employment prospects for young people through intrapreneurship support. FEENICS is expected to directly benefit, at the different stages of its implementation min. 120 young people aged 20-29, to take part in the pilot training workshops (min. 20 per country), min. 120 young people and employers (min. 20 per country) to participate in the envisaged discussion seminars. In addition, the partners expect to directly involve no less than 170 relevant stakeholders (indirect beneficiaries) in the project’s multiplier events (6 National Info Days and a Final Conference). The FEENICS project will have an overall impact on participating organisations, policymakers, social partners, single employers and, finally, young people, as its major objective is to narrow the existing knowledge gap, provide awareness on key concepts and opportunities and equip young people with the needed tools to support their efforts for mitigating their own state of “vulnerability” in the labour market and improving the degree of their social inclusion. Thus, the project’s end goal is to put in place a sustainable process of empowerment, self-awareness and self-initiative within the project’s target group, which will continue to evolve after project’s completion.
