The objectives we want to achieve by implementing the project are to promote rural tourism entrepreneurship by providing young people and facilitators with a set of extra skills and knowledge. Firstly, through the knowledge of tourism and rural tourism resources, we were able to increase their curiosity about this field. In a second step, we provided pilot training on rural tourism entrepreneurship and then, through modules and programs, we produced intellectual outputs for young people and trainers who are interested in this field. The consortium has achieved the project's objective by creating tools to improve the rural tourism entrepreneurship skills of trainers and young people. Using outputs and activities of project (the Report on the Database and Mapping of Potential Young Entrepreneurs and Tourism Resources in Rural Areas, Needs Analysis Report for Rural Tourism Entrepreneurship Training, YES for Rural Tourism” Pilot training activity, LTT and the Acceleration Program for Anti-fragile Young Entrepreneurs in Rural Area Tourism), we have reached to the project aims (Creating Networks and Links for Entrepreneurial Tourism Projects, Strengthening the Role of Anti-Fragile Young Entrepreneurs, Fostering Entrepreneur)
We applied for this project because of the pressing issue of youth unemployment across Europe, which remains a critical concern. We saw an opportunity to contribute to addressing this challenge by focusing on rural tourism entrepreneurship. Young entrepreneurs who take the initiative in this field can have a significant impact locally and internationally, especially given the increased demand for rural tourism post-Covid-19. First of all, we created the Needs Analysis Report For Rural Tourism Entrepreneurship Training to determine the training needs and the Report of Database and Mapping of Potential Young Entrepreneurs and Tourism Resources in Cordoba, Eskişehir and Treviso in Rural Area in order to promote sustainable tourism activities in rural areas. The project aims to encourage and support entrepreneurship in rural tourism through training and programs tailored to the specific needs of young people interested in this sector. By developing the 'Antifragile Young Entrepreneurs for Rural Tourism Training Module', we sought to equip aspiring entrepreneurs with not only the essential skills of tourism entrepreneurship but also introduce them to the concept of antifragility.
