The CulTourE4Youth Project aims to develop a regional paradigm as capacity building initiator in order to:
- increase the knowledge and entrepreneurial culture of young people, to be able to meet market demands and identify business opportunities;
- promote sustainable coastal tourism practices to develop new products, services and processes for sustainable cultural tourism;
- motivate employers, educational institutions, policy makers and civil society, and facilitate synergies among them, to support youth entrepreneurship with concrete actions.
The activity engages with young people (18-30y.o.), government agencies, business operators and training institutions in coastal communities in the geographical area of Türkiye, Azerbaijan, Georgia, Moldova and Ukraine, by means of analysis and consultation activities.
