Programa Empleaverde +
Training for the ecological transition
Fundación Biodiversidad promotes the ecological transition through employment and green entrepreneurship through the Programa Empleaverde+. Aimed at unemployed people, workers and entrepreneurs, it contributes to progress towards a climate-neutral and regenerative economy, positive for nature, efficient in the use of resources and circular, to generate new employment opportunities and green businesses.
The ecological transition requires us to adopt new ways of producing and consuming.
This will lead to the creation of new jobs and the adaptation of others.
It requires new skills
The new Programa Empleaverde+ responds to these needs through training.
Objectives:
To advance towards a climate-neutral and regenerative, nature-positive, resource-efficient and circular economy to generate new employment opportunities and green businesses.
How do we achieve it?
Through call of proposals for subsidies to finance and launch training projects and the Red Emprendeverde project.
Focus on training
The promotion of employment and training is one of the best tools for reducing inequalities and promoting the social integration of young people, women and people at risk of social and territorial exclusion, among others, including disadvantaged regions, or territories of demographic challenge.
It supports training projects for a green transition within the framework of a lifelong learning culture.
The Programa Empleaverde+, co-financed by the ESF+, will manage €44.1 million euros.
Empleaverde+ is plus because:
It supports transformative projects with learning-by-doing methodologies as well as other training projects for the ecological transition.
