Project G.R.E.E.N: The Circular Economy for NEET Youth (greenprojectec.com) for the implementation and testing of the project's tools.
In this capacity, the local mission's integration advisors have been trained in the key concepts of the circular economy, have participated in the train-the-trainer programme held in Greece with our partner Solidarity Tracks, in order to create awareness and training tools for young NEETS (Not in Education, Employment, or Training) and to discover the job and business creation opportunities offered by circular economy sectors. The tools from the GREEN e-toolkitGREEN RESOURCES – GREEN PROJECT (greenprojectec.com) have been tested by professional advisors brought together in a workshop and have been piloted with young people registered with the local mission, who were able to discover the principles of the circular economy, the professional opportunities opening up to them, and share their opinions on the ecological transition and the environmental challenges of our region.
«...We believe it is important for young people to be aware of the circular economy and its key sectors, as they are providers of jobs and business creation for our region. «.
