PROJECT TITTLE: ALTRUISTIC ENTREPRENEUR, CE Sustainable model to support social entrepreneurship

ACRONYM: CE-RESPONSIBLE

Project “ALTRUISTIC ENTREPRENEUR aims to improve skills and entrepreneurial competences for advancing economic and social innovation in Central Europe. It is primarily motivated by the lack of long-term support for social entrepreneurs.

Innovativeness of proposed approach is based on mobilization of successful entrepreneurs’ willingness to support social innovation and social entrepreneurship. Those socially responsible entrepreneurs in CE who would like to offer their resources to social entrepreneurs and are genuinely altruistic, we named - ALTRU-PRENEURS. In cooperation with social entrepreneurs, they would create a self-sustainable framework for reaching their goals.

The project will allow a transnational mutual learning process of partners with different experiences, but similar challenges. During this project the partners will:

1. Develop and implement three strategic documents for improving skills and competences

  • CE roadmap for upscaling support to social entrepreneurship sector
  • CE sustainable framework model supporting specifics of social entrepreneurship 
  • Policy recommendations.

2. Develop and implement four tools for improving skills and competences

  • CE support and networking platform with related tools
  • Altru-preneurs’ international association
  • Coaching toolbox for social entrepreneurs
  • Coaching toolbox for altru-preneurs (mentors).

3. Implement seven pilot actions for testing developed bottom-up support tools.
