Synopsis: This incisive book explores entrepreneurial activity and its close relationship with the surrounding context. Through the study of tailored educational approaches, it emphasises programs, interventions and awareness initiatives as a means to stimulate entrepreneurship and highlight both the commonalities underlying entrepreneurial activity in general, and the unique characteristics of each specific context.Expert contributors, representing a diverse array of perspectives, emphasise the significance of context in entrepreneurship awareness, promotion, and education. Chapters reflect on the significant effort scholars and educators have put into adapting entrepreneurship programs for different domains, considering cultural, geographical, and socio-economic factors. Chapters also survey the innovative approaches in entrepreneurship education, and identify and analyse various educational practices.Both progressive and thought-provoking, this book will be an indispensable read for researchers, academics and students of entrepreneurial studies, education, and business management. Teachers of entrepreneurship and management studies will equally benefit from the representation of both learners’ and teachers’ perspectives.
