*Research Group – The 1st part (2pm – 3pm) will be a presentation on Erasmus Funding. The 2 nd part (3pm – 4.30pm) will be a workshop on formulating and submitting COST action funding proposals. COST Action networks are intended to act as incubators for EU project (consortia) with respect to a given domain. Registered attendees will be given the opportunity to suggest a topic for the Cost Action which will be communicated a prior to the session.

**Refugee Tourism Entrepreneurship Workshop – The workshop aims to provide Businet members, Training Organisations and NGO's with the materials and skills needed to support entrepreneurs who have escaped war, conflict and situations with little or no human rights. The workshop originates from the INSPIRE project, which is running from 2023-2025 funded by Erasmus Key Action 2, with 7 partners, who are all from the Businet network.
Our workshop will initially present our literature review findings, followed by the results of interviews and surveys conducted with over 200 people in refugee like situations from Ireland, Belgium, Türkiye, Ukraine, Croatia and across Europe.
In the workshop we will demonstrate our tourism entrepreneurship course to participants and we will seek your feedback and contributions on improving the content. All participants will gain access to reports, a business start-up support database, PPT materials and training course materials which will be useful for anyone teaching topics related to business, the UN SDGs, entrepreneurship, social innovation and tourism.
The workshop will be delivered by the INSPIRE EU Project team. There will be 2 workshop sessions:
13:00 CET - 1 hour - Workshop for Staff to inspire and support Refugees into Entrepreneurship
14.00 CET - 1 hour - Workshop for students (typically those in refugee like or displaced situations) to inspire and support them into Tourism Entrepreneurship
This is a project supported by Erasmus Funding, please circulate the event within your institution and to all students, NGOs and those working with Refugees. Attendees will be eligible for a Digital Badge.

Please note: The International Relation Managers (IRM) will not meet during the Spring Workshops. They will next meet during the 38th Annual Conference in Sofia.
