Achievements (EN):

The project was designed to address the common challenges of formal education on elementary and secondary level regarding their non-correspondence with labor market demands and high level of youth unemployment in Botevgrad and Vranje municipalities. The project encompassed large number of elementary and secondary schools students that were involved in entrepreneurial learning, but also it encompassed teachers from these schools and university students that were trained to become teachers of entrepreneurial learning. Furthermore, educational programmes for entrepreneurial learning were incorporated into the official curricula of included schools. Through all this, all levels of education system in Botevgrad and Vranje were enriched in terms of BONDing standard educational practice with business oriented entrepreneurship approach that should lead towards more effective responding to the labor market needs and market demands in general and accordingly decrease the unemployment. These results will go far beyond each individual project partner since the project addressed the needs of the whole municipalities and region in general, having in mind the regional character of educational institutions, especially partner university schools. As a positive side effect, large number of Bulgarian and Serbian students and teachers had the possibility to learn/work together and expectedly BOND with each other which was valuable from social and personal development perspectives.
