For more than 10 years, the "Trust for Social Achievement" Foundation and its partners have been working on a unique model for acquiring material assets that help start or expand small businesses.
The model was created by the Plovdiv-based Land – Source of Income" Foundation and effectively increases income generation and promotes entrepreneurship through agricultural and non-agricultural initiatives.
Entrepreneurship is particularly important for vulnerable communities, as our research shows that around 9% of people from the Roma community living in neighborhoods with a predominantly Roma population express interest in self-employment, while this percentage rises to 18% in mixed-population neighborhoods.
