Inter-regional SWOT
Since 2010 eight organisations from various regions within the EU have worked in the YES project to identify ways of integrating the teaching of entrepreneurship skills into the education system.
Following a programme of intensive initiatives at regional and national level that has included mapping, surveys and questionnaires, and through a process of inter-regional debate, analysis and due deliberation of the information collected, every YES partner has used the material as the basis for a regional SWOT analysis, showing the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats in their regions.
In this section you can find the inter-regional SWOT. By clicking in each different cell (S, W, O, T) for each region (Estonia, Finland, Ireland, Poland, Slovakia, Spain and Sweden), you will obtain detailed information
