Project activities
Project activities are divided into three work packages.
1. Popup School
Popup School is based on peer education / peer teaching. The Popup School is a one day-long event for young people to teach each other and businesses. Young people will be able to present and provide their own expertise, for example through a lecture or workshop. The event is comparable to työnhakutreffit (job search “dating”), where several job-seekers and employers are acquainted during the day. The setting is new, as young people become the professionals and companies compete for their expertise.
2. Creative Labs
Enable and facilitate creative laboratories to prototype young people’s products and services.The creative laboratories will be located at Xamk Kouvola Paja workshop -space and Hub Kouvola in Viiraamo in June 2019.
3. Week as an entrepreneur – program
Coach students and organize “Week as an entrepreneur” -program, where participants will learn about entrepreneurship in companies that are considering selling their business.
