Background

The project "Spark of Green Entrepreneurship" was a 20-month partnership aimed at fostering green entrepreneurship education, including the concept of photovoltaics and eco-innovations in business. Urgent m easures were required to protect our planet and maximize the utilization of renewable energy sources. To achieve this goal, it was essential to enhance workers' entrepreneurial skills and, consequently, their ability to assist young people. Thus, the project partners collaboratively prepared a program to encourage youth workers in their countries to promote mutual learning with a strong emphasis on investing in renewable energy sources. This investment not only helps protect the environment but also contributes to the development of civilization and the increase in resource efficiency. The added value of the project was its contribution to the implementation of the objectives of the European Commission statement "A Clean Planet for all…".
