The EUCLID Network’s annual conference, ‘Chartering Into The Future’ (Strasbourg, 15 January 2014), and the European Commission’s conference, ‘Social Entrepreneurs: Have Your Say!’ (Strasbourg, 16- 17 January 2014) will provide opportunities for participants to contribute to policy issues in relation to social entrepreneurship in the region, as well as build contacts with actors in the EU and beyond. TACSO is collaborating with the EUCLID Network to maximize participation of actors in the social entrepreneurship field from the Western Balkans and Turkey.
Support to participation in these conferences will act as a follow-up to the International Social Entrepreneurship conference organized by TACSO in Istanbul in 2011 in collaboration with the British Council Turkey and TUSEV. That conference played a pivotal role in stimulating discussions, involvement and partnership in the field of social entrepreneurship in the region.
Social entrepreneurs, CSOs working with social entrepreneurship who are based in the IPA countries can apply. Participants are expected to have experience in the field and act as resource people throughout the workshop by sharing and discussing good practices and lessons learned.
Individuals should have at least five (5) years’ experience working as social entrepreneurs or with social entrepreneurship. Applicants need to be fluent in English to the extent that they can actively participate in the conference.
