"Unfortunately, this was not my house, so I didn’t have a computer with me. In my presentation there are not many words on it because people wouldn’t be able to read it through my phone. I used the presentation as a guideline so I wouldn’t forget anything important to say, but basically my dissemination was me talking, presenting the business plans we did and the PowerPoints and showing photos from the whole project.

In the beginning, I explained Erasmus+ projects because my friends didn’t know about this opportunity. I went into details about the difference between youth exchanges, training courses, ESC and what is Youthpass. The information I shared were based on the posters we made in Predeal.

Then, I briefly presented the activities we did in the first days so we could know one another better and become a team. Specifically, I talked about the games we played, mission impossible, city rally, the session about “fears and expectations” where we could be open about our fears and about the countries presentations with some interesting information from each country.

After talking about our day trip to Bran and Brasov, I started presenting the main goal of this project. I mentioned how we decided the business ideas and how we organized the next days of work. I showed photos of the steps we had to followed in order to organize our businesses and I presented some interesting information, like the SWOT analysis that most of them didn’t know about. Afterwards, I showed all the final presentations of each team and I analyzed each business idea.

Lastly, I talked about the intercultural nights and what I learned from them. I talked about the different foods each country brought, the activities and games we played and the highlight of each night that I liked most, like in the Italian-Turkish night my favorite thing was the dances. I finished my dissemination with all the thoughts and feeling I had from this Erasmus, the people I met, the experiences I gained and how they made me change as a person."

"In the city’s centre of Thessaloniki, to my friend’s house, we decided to have an intercultural food night with my friends and to present them not only what we did in this program but also what is Erasmus+ and how it works. We were 10 people from different countries and the most interesting thing was that even if almost all of them were in Thessaloniki for their scholarship Erasmus program, they had no idea about youth exchanges, training courses and ESC so they got really impressed about it.

The event happened 29/3 by me (Eleni-Spyridoula Sergini) and lasted 50-55’ because people had many questions about it."

It was made a non formal activity called Agree, Disagree or 50/50, the sentences were related to Erasmus+ and the key competences in general, in order to incentive the participants for in a future taking part in a project. 

I also shared how it was specifically our project in Predeal, with the pics, videos and of course the results."

Dissemination: Romania (AHA Center)

On May 24th, the AHA Center buzzed with excitement as young entrepreneurs and aspiring business owners gathered for our dissemination event, marking a significant milestone in our youth exchange project, "My Hobby, My Business!"

The "My Hobby, My Business!" project was conceived with a clear and compelling mission: to empower young people to transform their passions and hobbies into viable businesses. In today's dynamic and ever-evolving economic landscape, entrepreneurship is a vital skill that can drive personal and community growth. This project provided participants with the knowledge, tools and confidence to embark on their entrepreneurial journeys.

The event was a vibrant showcase of enthusiasm and curiosity. Attendees delved into the project's objectives and outcomes, eager to understand how they could apply these learnings to their own ventures. The highlight of the day was the interactive Q&A session, where participants posed numerous questions about the Erasmus+ program and its role in supporting young entrepreneurs.

Erasmus+ is a European Union initiative designed to support education, training, youth, and sport in Europe. It offers opportunities for individuals and organizations to develop their skills, gain international experience and foster cross-cultural understanding. For young entrepreneurs, Erasmus+ provides valuable resources, networking opportunities and financial support to help turn their innovative ideas into reality.

During the event, we shared comprehensive information about the Erasmus+ program and its benefits. We highlighted success stories and case studies of young entrepreneurs who had successfully leveraged Erasmus+ funding and resources to launch their businesses. This inspired and motivated our participants, showing them the tangible impact of the program on young people's lives.

As we move forward, we remain committed to supporting young entrepreneurs in pursuing their passions and achieving their business goals. The "My Hobby, My Business!" project will continue to provide resources and opportunities for young people to thrive in the world of entrepreneurship.

Thank you once again to all our participants, partners and supporters. Together, we are creating a future where hobbies can indeed become thriving businesses.

Stay tuned for more updates and opportunities from the "My Hobby, My Business!" project and the Erasmus+ program. Let’s continue to inspire and empower the next generation of entrepreneurs! 🤩
