This problem is even more alarming within young population and is present almost all around the world. We are solving it with promotion of entrepreneurship among youth.Second problem deals with environment issues. The Earth is getting more and more polluted and is never to much of effort to protect our environment to have opportunities to grow and raise our families in healthy environment. This problem we are solving with applying green technologies and environmental friendly business ideas and social responsibility. If we combine both problems together we get “green jobs”. We are going to implement series of activities, where we will train young people how to be creative, especially in very fast growing economic field, GREEN ENTREPRISES, which uses environmental friendly techniques for successful business.During 21 months we will have first preparatory meeting in Portugal follows by Training Course in Argentina, Youth exchange in Indonesia, conferences in Nepal and Ghana and it ends with evaluation meeting in Slovenia.On those larger event we will train youth workers to deal and to moderate local activities and workshops.
