The project aims at contribution to the social and economic development by creating a Center for entrepreneurship training and motivation for women over 54 years of age (further called "sheltered members") who are at risk of losing their jobs OR were released from work soon OR are permanently unemployed.
The center (Bio Nest) will provide entrepreneurship and/or employment training, adaptation, social and cultural contacts for the sheltered members. At the Bio Nest educational sessions, discussions, creative workshops, consultations in entrepreneurship will take place. Unemployed women over 54 years of age with low chances for new employment right before retirement (as a target group) will come to the center.
A social enterprise will be launched in the frame of the Bio Nest – for bio businesses in agriculture, fishery, food preparation, healthy living and sports etc. Its mission will be to provide funds for the entrepreneurship training and motivation for the sheltered members in the Bio Nest. This will ensure the financial sustainability of the project. In the same time the sheltered members will use the social enterprise to gain knowledge and practical skills in entrepreneurial management.
