YESpecialists: boosting entrepreneurship education for youth employment in the mountains

Many rural and mountainous areas face the outmigration of young people, who leave to seek employment in urban areas. In order to face the employment challenge and to improve the image of mountain work, the YESpecialists project focuses on youth entrepreneurship by creating adequate entrepreneurial ecosystems and changing mindsets about mountain employment.

YESpecialists will help develop an entrepreneurial spirit among mountain youth and encourage them to envisage an entrepreneurial future. Discover how in our good practice.

YESpecialists was presented at the XII European Mountain Convention on Smart Mountains. You can find this project and other good practices in the eventโ€™s brochure of initiatives, available in English, French and Italian.
