Creativity and entrepreneurship: mechanisms for climbing out of the crisis
Key points:
This opinion considers the added-value of Creativity and Entrepreneurship, as one mechanism to exit the crisis with a focus on investing in human capital by enhancing and fostering the can-do attitude.
It seeks to identify ways to value European citizen’s potential and bring it to action. It uses an all inclusive approach to create opportunities for a greater amount of people independent of age, gender, race, abilities or social conditions.
The opinion addresses:
- how to retain, yet transfer the diversity of Europe to a common identity,
- how to make Europe an ENABLER and empower its citizens,
- how to create a Europe of Pride, Ambition and Values whose citizens are Ambassadors and who celebrate in the successes of their achievements.
