Season: Training on starting a sustainable small business
Discover all you can do with a tiny social business while living in a picturesque village, surrounded by like-minded changemakers from Poland, Italy, and Spain.

WHO CAN PARTICIPATE:
We especially value the participation of young people living in rural areas or those interested in relocating to a rural area for the development of a personal or business project. However, this shouldn’t be a barrier to apply even if you live in the heart of Warsaw, Rome, or Madrid.
Upon selection, you’ll receive an extensive info-pack with practical information (what to bring, how to organize travel and share rides with other participants, small tasks to prepare before coming to Sende, etc.)
Right now we are organizing a similar event and you can check it on our instagram stories.
