“SELF: Solo-entrepreneurship in Post‑pandemic Europe” was presented at Opportunity Morning 2025, a lively street event held in the Mangas Verdes neighbourhood of Málaga that celebrates innovation, youth engagement, and access to opportunities. The event transformed the neighbourhood into an open‑air platform where local organisations, companies, educational institutions and associations presented their services, projects, and resources directly to young people and community members.

SELF, an Erasmus+‑funded initiative focused on advancing solo‑entrepreneurial skills among higher education students and young adults across Europe, was featured by IWS as one of the projects presented at Opportunity Morning 2025, with presentations and engagement activities highlighting its objectives and resources. The project introduces an innovative learning framework designed to cultivate initiative, creativity, and practical competences for solo entrepreneurship, equipping learners to navigate the changing world of work and pursue self‑employment confidently.

At the event, SELF representatives showcased the project’s results, including collected best practices and case studies, and open training modules, all freely available on the project’s Open Educational Resources (OER) platform. The platform provides a comprehensive digital space hosting 7 training modules and supporting materials that help learners build key entrepreneurial skills, such as creativity, problem solving, and project planning. These resources are available in five languages and include interactive components, certificates of competence, and accessibility features to ensure inclusivity for diverse learners.

SELF engaged directly with youth participants, educators, and local stakeholders, offering insights into solo‑entrepreneurship and highlighting how empowering young people with entrepreneurial mindsets can expand their professional horizons. The project’s presence at Opportunity Morning reinforced its mission to bridge education and real‑world application, supporting young people in exploring self‑employment pathways and contributing to sustainable local and European economies.
