Abstract

Unemployment, especially among young population, represents one of key economic problems. All important institutions have to be included in overcoming these problems, with the aim of stimulating young people to be involved in entrepreneurial processes. In this paper, global and European trends and trends in the Western Balkans are shown, related to unemployment of young population (aged 15-24). The central part is dedicated to the analysis of possibilities for improving entrepreneurial behaviour of young people in the Central Banat District, on the basis of trends, statistical indicators and the results of conducted research on attitudes of young people towards entrepreneurship and starting their own business. The research sample conducted in 2016 consisted of 350 respondents. The young are often unmotivated to get involved in entrepreneurial processes – they wish to start their own business, but most frequently claim to be distracted by: lack of funds, lack of experience in running a company, lack of knowledge, as well as lack of the right idea. Factors, which distract respondents from starting their own business, represent the result of non-existing adequate environment for supporting young entrepreneurship.
