The Brett Centre for Entrepreneurship (BCfE), has launched a policy paper entitled ‘Youth Entrepreneurship Policy: Contemporary Challenges and Ways Forward’, written by University of Liverpool’s Management School academics Professor Robert Blackburn and Dr Jordan Gamble in collaboration with the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD).
This report sets out a new agenda for youth entrepreneurship policy and is intended to be a starting point for debate and discussion on youth entrepreneurship, particularly the power of young people, their diversity, ambitions, and challenges as they move into adulthood. This improved understanding should then affect innovations in the aims, design, content, and delivery of entrepreneurship policy measures for young people to enable them to meet contemporary challenges. The report draws on evidence presented during a series of workshops in Liverpool, London, and Paris.
Should you have any ideas and feedback to help in the next steps to raise knowledge levels and influence policy design and delivery for young people, the Brett Centre for Entrepreneurship would like to hear from you.
