The “Limitl’ESS Generation” Bootcamp came to an end on 17 July. It had brought together 45 exceptional young men and women representing the seven social and solidarity economy (ESS in French) clubs of the regions of Kairouan, Sidi Bouzid, Kasserine, Gabes, Kebili, Jendouba and Le Kef.

It was an enriching experience of learning and growth. Throughout the bootcamp, the participants followed a comprehensive programme designed to give them the skills and expertise essential for success as entrepreneurs, and the techniques for networking, presenting projects, and speaking in public in search of funding and partnerships.

The camp also featured workshops and visits on the ground

To strengthen their practical understanding, the participants took part in practical workshops focusing on entrepreneurial skills, the social and solidarity economy, marketing and the impact on society. They also had the opportunity of visiting an institution of the social and solidarity economy and thus gaining first-hand knowledge of specific applications.

These, and the comradeship, were unforgettable experiences.

Outside the classroom, the participants took part in a variety of games, which encouraged comradeship and made for some lasting memories, both of the games themselves and of the visits

One of the aims of the camp was to make young entrepreneurs more autonomous.

 This bootcamp, organised by Jeun’ESS and the Ministry of Youth and Sports, provided these young people with the tools and the knowledge needed to transform their innovative projects into reality. With the Limitl’ESS Generation Bootcamp, the Jeun’ESS project has reaffirmed its unshakeable commitment to making young entrepreneurs autonomous and promoting a flourishing social and solidarity economy.
