Course objectives
You will develop your critical thinking skills. You will be able to illustrate what Social Entrepreneurship is about because you will actively search for and share good practices in the field of social entrepreneurship. You will know more about Social Entrepreneurship Education (SEE) and Sustainable Development Goals (SDG's) by reading, sharing and discussing literature with group members and by visiting a primary school that conducts social entrepreneurship education. Together with peers from your home country, you will study SEE-practices in your own country, and you will exchange findings in the international group. You will get acquainted with good practices in the field of SEE. In a small international group, you will design and carry out an SEE-activity for primary school children in Brno. You will be able to function as an ambassador for SEE.
Learning outcomes
lt is considered more and more important to address sustainable development challenges in education for learners of all ages. One way of doing this is with Social Entrepreneurship Education (SEE), education that focuses on empowering learners of all ages to create valuable contributions to sustainable development issues through social entrepreneurship. Children learn to become social entrepreneurs with real world issues about sustainable development. For example, plastic soup and global warming, but also issues like the quality of life in a neighbourhood, prejudice, discrimination and poverty. All these aspects are reflected in the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) formulated by the United Nations. Children who are equipped to become social entrepreneurs, learn how they - as young as they are- can take initiative and create value, and thus make a change for the better!
