Graduates Development Program • Home
Since 2013, the Graduates Development Program has offered a group of 15 students from the Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam the possibility to go on a volunteering trip in developing countries to share their knowledge with local entrepreneurs. The aim of this program is to help these entrepreneurs grow their business by improving their business plans and knowledge. Thereby we have contributed to the development of local communities and long-term success of local businesses. During this program, we will work closely with a local partner to ensure continuity and to meet the demands of the local community.
We are busy looking at all the possibilities and are making contact with various potential project partners, both in Europe and in the Netherlands. As no one can predict what COVID-19 will bring us next year, we are working with different scenarios. By doing so, we will hopefully be able to set up a nice project, regardless of the measures taken.
