The iED participates in the Bravo Sustainability Awards 2022 with the HELIOS initiative for the “Improvement of the social inclusion of young people who do not participate in education, employment, and training (NEETs).” This initiative is a project funded by the European program ENI CBC MED and has the following objectives:
- The promotion of social inclusion, the fight against poverty, and the prioritization of the vocational rehabilitation of young people not participating in education, employment, and training (NEETS) and women;
- To tackle social exclusion and poverty among vulnerable groups by identifying the sector with the most significant potential for development;
- To provide skills to young people who are not involved in education, employment, and training to meet the needs of the above sectors.
With the development of HELIOS’ good practice, the Institute for Entrepreneurship Development apart from its recognition as a Sustainability Ambassador further claims the award for the best practice in the category “Bravo Society.” The winners will be declared by public vote, and for this reason, we ask for your support.
