  1. European Action Group (EAG) for Entrepreneurship Education EAG Conference Call October 2011

  2. Agenda • The EAG Project Group Status • A way forward for the EAG • Other related Initiatives and Events 

  3. Past Projects 1) Outreach (Chair: Jan Muehlfeit) Special Interest BLOG http://europeanactiongroup.wordpress.com/ Participation at 25 + events 2) Good Practices (Co-Chairs: Anthony Gribben and Julie Mercer) Template Submissions of a number of good practice 3) Indicators for Entrepreneurship Education (Chair: Anders Hoffman) Socialized the design of a framework EE effectiveness at the national level; regional; institutional.

  4. EAG After WEF The intent is to maintain our connection with each other and leverage our existing networks/initiatives. Option A) Rejuvenate the EAG under new conditions which would support coordination/generate resources for concrete follow-up projects. Option B) Continue as before with regular calls and connectivity (volunteer approach) In both instances, we link to existing initiative

  5. Option A: Renew the EAG under new conditions • Create a new consortium—existing and new participants to be invited • Clear mandate/purpose • Support structure (JA-YE has accepted invitation to ‘host’ in-kind and will work to raise funds for activity) • EAG Website + online networking • Leverage our own networks and events/initiatives • Link with institutions (EU et al) • The consortium would engage in 1 core joint project (to be agreed) and contribute in specified ways. (we think that a follow-up action on impact/indicators would be a good place to start); perhaps, if the first effort is successful, more projects can be undertaken

  6. Option B: Maintain EAG as an online network • Volunteer coordination • Linked-in group • Leverage EAG events and activities Discussion: • Is this volunteer-based approach really sustainable longer term? • Should we agree to wrap up the EAG now?

  7. Discussion: Other Related Initiatives & Events • Sharing of Events • Resources • Other Groups engaged in EE
