D. A. Tsenov Academy of Economics starts working on a new project under the Erasmus+ programme for capacity building in the field of higher education. The topic of the project is “European Partnership for Social Inclusion and Creation of Skills for Women Entrepreneurship E-learning”. Project No. 2018-1-BG01-KA203-048016 will be implemented in the period from  September 1, 2018 to August 31, 2020. The total budget of the project is estimated to be 202 292.00 EUR. The kick-off meeting of the project will be held on January 23, 2019 in Sofia, Bulgaria.

The project focuses on the social inclusion of women wishing to develop their own business in the area of trade and logistics through integration into entrepreneurship in the underdeveloped regions of Bulgaria (the North Central and North Western region), Italy and Great Britain through training, acquiring practical skills and competencies in order to generate financial, cultural, and social value. One of the aims of the project is to design and build an innovative platform for exchanging experience and good practices to support the development of women entrepreneurship skills, which will ease the access to an engagement with digital technologies in formal and non-formal education of disadvantaged learners. It is expected that the development of woman entrepreneurship skills will ensure employment and economic growth in the regions of the partner organisations.
