Abstract

Europe has always attracted migrants despite the serious socioeconomic problems, such as unemployment and exclusion, they encounter. Labour market integration has been a policy priority in the EU. The important role of entrepreneurship and entrepreneurship education has been widely acknowledged in that context since the development of entrepreneurial culture and entrepreneurial skills can have multiplier effects for both migrants and hosting economies. Entrepreneurial competences are among the key competences for Lifelong Learning, setting out skills that contribute to the enhancement of employability, personal development, and active citizenship. This paper focuses on European Union recent policies and initiatives related to entrepreneurship education for migrants.
