Dojmovi sudionika projekta “Little act, true change”

  • “It was my first project, and it went great. I learned a lot of new things about social entrepreneurship, what it is made of, and how one could start one. I also learned how to come up with new ideas, think thoroughly, and work efficiently as a team. Furthermore, it helped me a lot with my confidence, speaking, and presenting in front of others. I gained a lot in just a few days.”, Bibiána K.

 

  • “I participated in this project only in Georgia. It was a very memorable experience. I recall a few tasks focused on job interviews and maintaining eye contact, as well as meetings with social entrepreneurs. Additionally, the food was great. I remember Nana, a very kind and smart girl.”, Nestani T.

 

  • “At first, I thought I would feel lost because the project’s theme was unfamiliar to me, and I didn’t have much knowledge in that area. However, the project was so well executed that it made everyone relate and see opportunities for entrepreneurship in their own lives. The most valuable part for me was when they taught us how to create a project and a social enterprise, as that aligns with my future goals in my country. Moreover, they helped us realize how easy it is to come up with good ideas and transform bad ones into promising ones. Now, I have already documented a part of my future project and gained the knowledge to establish or improve social enterprises in my city.”, Sofia T.

 

  • “Both the projects in Croatia and Georgia were amazing! They provided an excellent opportunity to immerse myself in the local culture and connect with like-minded individuals from around the world. Participating in this youth exchange was truly a memorable experience. The projects were well-organized and struck a perfect balance between work, learning, cultural integration, and fun. The visits to local social enterprises were particularly outstanding. We had the privilege of interacting directly with local social entrepreneurs, an opportunity that would have been otherwise inaccessible. I am grateful to Erasmus+ and all the organizers involved. I highly recommend anyone seeking personal growth and expanded horizons apply for these projects in the future. Cheers!”, Raja B.

 

  • “The project has provided me with valuable insight into the world of entrepreneurship. I learned about the practical aspects of starting a business, such as planning, utilizing the Business Model Canvas and Ikigai frameworks, pitching, conducting interviews, and transforming ordinary ideas into profitable entrepreneurial ventures. This knowledge has been instrumental in acquainting me with the process of business creation. Additionally, the project in Croatia and Georgia equipped me with competencies in entrepreneurship, digital skills, multilingualism, social awareness, and cultural awareness. I firmly believe that these competencies will have a positive impact on both my professional and personal growth. Ultimately, the knowledge and experience gained from these projects will enable me to contribute towards raising awareness among youth in my home country and beyond.”, Nika K.
