Description: This project represents the continuation of a previously successfully completed phase one. In phase two, a total of 266 were supplied with equipment and/or material for starting own business activities, again in the average value of 800 EUR. This time, more attention was given also to the training component, enabling the interested beneficiaries to acquire knowledge on basic business management, especially focusing on the preparation and implementation of a business plan. Another step in this direction was the distribution of handbooks covering the most important legal aspects of registration and functioning of small business. Additionally, six more beneficiaries from Ruma and Stara Pazova were included as a result of the donation of The Royal Norwegian Embassy in Belgrade.
