TREE: Formazione e Risorse per Abilitare un’Era Verde
A Erasmus+ project for a sustainable future
2023-1-IT01-KA210 WEEK-000155836
Introduction
Welcome to the first edition of the Tree project newsletter (Training and Resources to Enable a Green Era), An initiative financed by the Erasmus+ KA210-VET program. Tree was born from the growing need to train professionals able to face the challenges of the ecological transition, providing them with adequate skills to operate in a labor market increasingly oriented to sustainability.
Il progetto è realizzato grazie alla collaborazione di tre paesi europei: Italia, Greece and Spain. Tree aims to develop innovative methodologies and tools to support professionals and training institutions in creating educational paths aligned with the new needs of the world of work.
The objectives and priority of the project
The transition to a more sustainable and respectful economy of the environment is one of the fundamental priorities of the European Union. Il Green Deal Europeo stabilisce obiettivi ambiziosi, including climatic neutrality by 2050, the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions and the adoption of more sustainable production models. However, so that these objectives become reality, It is necessary that the world of work and training quickly adapt to the new challenges, developing adequate skills for the ecological transition.
The Tree project wants to fill the gap between the current skills and those requested by the green labor market, offering innovative tools to train a new generation of professionals with a strong environmental awareness. This change is crucial not only for those looking for work, but also for those who are already busy and need to update themselves to remain competitive in the world of work.
The main objectives of the Tree project include:
- Sviluppare un programma di formazione innovativo focalizzato sulle competenze verdi, which will help trainees of education and professional training (IFP), workers and unemployed to acquire new skills for the sustainable labor market.
- Creare un kit di strumenti interattivi basati su scenari situazionali, who will simulate real cases to provide a practical and concrete experience, helping participants to understand and apply the concepts of sustainability in their daily and work activities.
- Identificare e diffondere buone pratiche attraverso una ricerca approfondita nei paesi partner, which will analyze how green skills are integrated into existing training programs and which strategies are more effective for learning and job placement.
- Promuovere la consapevolezza ambientale e incoraggiare un cambiamento comportamentale tra studenti, workers and companies, facilitating the adoption of more sustainable practices both on an individual and organizational level.
Il progetto TREE si inserisce perfettamente nella priorità “Ambiente e lotta ai cambiamenti climatici” di Erasmus+, helping to create a more flexible and future -oriented professional education and professional training system. The acquisition of green skills will no longer be an option, but an essential element for any professional career, regardless of the sector of belonging.
Tree aims to make the skills for sustainability accessible to everyone, so that the ecological transition is a concrete opportunity for economic and social growth, and not an obstacle to professional development.
Expected activities and results
To achieve its ambitious objectives, Tree is structured in a series of key activities that develop during the entire project:
- Workshop e ricerche nei tre paesi partner per analizzare lo stato attuale delle competenze verdi nei centri di formazione professionale e individuare le migliori pratiche già in uso.
- Sviluppo e implementazione di un programma formativo specifico per la transizione ecologica, with innovative didactic content and interactive digital materials.
- Organizzazione di eventi moltiplicatori in Italia, Greece and Spain to spread the results and encourage collaboration between Stakeholders, Companies and educational institutions.
- Creazione di un “Good practices manual”, which will collect effective strategies to integrate green skills in professional training and in the world of work.
The goal is not only to provide tools and knowledge, but also stimulate a sustainable mentality, essential to face global environmental challenges.
Who are the partners of the project?
Tree is created thanks to the collaboration of three European organizations with experience in the sector of training and sustainable development:
ADIM Srl (Italia) - Project coordinator, Responsible for the overall management, of the dissemination of the results and the creation of the training program.
Zeus Ike advice (Greece) - specialized in innovative training methodologies and in the design of situational scenarios for interactive learning.
Newproject International Agency (Spain) - Responsible for the research and collection of good practices, With particular attention to the involvement of institutions and local companies.
This partnership allows tree to combine different skills and approaches, creating an effective and replicable training model in other European contexts.
Impact and beneficiaries
Tree will have a significant impact on several target groups:
- Tirocinanti dell’IFP e persone in cerca di lavoro, ai quali verranno fornite le competenze necessarie per inserirsi nel mercato dei “lavori verdi”.
- Lavoratori con competenze obsolete, who will be able to update and adapt to the new needs of the sustainable economy.
- Centri di formazione professionale e aziende, who will have access to innovative tools for the training and selection of staff in Green perspective.
The initiative aims to create a waterfall effect, With the spread of the skills acquired in different areas of society and the world of work, thus contributing to the ecological transition on large scale.
Next steps
In the coming months, The Tree project will see the implementation of the following activities:
- Organizzazione di workshop locali per raccogliere dati e analizzare le esigenze formative nel settore delle competenze verdi.
- Sviluppo e sperimentazione del programma di formazione, with the direct involvement of trainees and professionals.
- Eventi moltiplicatori nei tre paesi partner, which will allow to share acquired knowledge and encourage transnational collaborations.
