Intro to Entrepreneurial Project Skills
This week will offer an introduction to project planning, budget creation, marketing strategy and execution and fundraising. In order to be able to work with initiative in the world these basic skills can be very useful. They are also skills that can be applied in many areas of life. What is the creative capacity behind these skills and how can we foster this? How can we use these tools as a means to enabling initiative to flourish and as helpful guides along the way? Participants will build on the vision obtained during the previous MESA week to plan and execute outreach and design for the Light Festival they will host in December. This will enable an opportunity to immediately practise project skills as well as serving as a useful ‘prototype’ project, providing learnings that can be applied to further projects within YIP and beyond.
