Building Entrepreneurial Mindset in Youth for a Sustainable Society (BE YOU) is a Strategic Partnership in the youth field. The project brings together 5 partners from France and Italy and a wide network of associated partners (in Italy France and Spain) to raise awareness young people's awareness of climate change issues and empower them to become factors of change in their local communities. To this end, the project plans to develop, pilot and disseminate three innovative workshops for young people:1. Ecological Renaissance: organised as a role play (including political actors, local community members, etc.) the workshop will offer a positive story of what communities could look like after a successful implementation of sustainability policies (which includes carbon neutrality in 2050, social justice, etc.). 2. 2 Tonnes: based on a carbon accounting tool that will allow players to visualize their own carbon footprint and simulate improvements, the workshop owes its name to the fact that each citizen must retain their carbon balance under 2 tonnes of CO2 equivalent per year in order to achieve global carbon neutrality by 2050, limit global warming to +1.5°C thus preventing a climate disaster. 3. Social Entrepreneurship: a workshop that connects sustainable development and economic activity; it will consist of multiple sessions devoted to initiation into social entrepreneurship, analysing existing solutions to societal problem, developing new business that bring value to local communities, meeting local social enterprises for inspiration (meetings, visits, podcasts), and getting informed about possible follow-up activities.The workshops are based on a comprehensive pedagogical methodology for the main target group of the project - young people with fewer opportunities, mainly socio-economic obstacles, who are often left out of the conversation on sustainability. To ensure effective learning and behavioural change, the methodology is underpinned by the four pillars of learning (reasoning, imagination, emotion and structure), effective language, storytelling, gamification and participatory education. A Training for youth workers will be designed and piloted to build the capacities of youth workers and teachers to reap the full potential of these new youth workshops.Over a period of 25 months and numerous Multiplier Events, he project aims to reach 210 young people and 150 youth workers and teachers.
