Stimulating Green EMployment: across border educational and technological innovation hot – Spots

 

Σύντομη περιγραφή

The cross border area is plagued by unemployment and a deep, long-term economic crisis and despite producing educated scientists, the absence of job/career opportunities forces them to migrate away from the region. GEMS’s holistic approach of the four basic pillars, i.e., Education-Creativity-Action-Sustainability means that the project will have a major socio-economic impact in the cross border region, as in addition to its environmental advantage, human resources training, the project’s strategic target, will provide a significant contribution to economic development. More than 100 participants in both countries will be trained in cutting-edge technologies, providing them with the necessary ‘green’ high-skills and innovative vision. Thus, by giving graduates the necessary know-how, GEMS will turn them into competitive candidates in the job market, but also opens up their way of thinking to create job opportunities for self-employment. During their joint training, participants of both regions will have the chance to exchange experiences, knowledge, concerns for the similarities and the differences of the two nations, while the project itself is designed to elicit practical and sustainable proposals that could be adopted by local businesses and policy/decision makers at the local/regional and/or national level. There is a great need, and also a great challenge, to optimize graduates’ skills in a level that they can be ready to influence policy makers in crucial issues concerning sustainability and circular economy advantages. The development of Technological and Innovation Hot-Spots is of prime importance as it will contribute to the creation of new jobs (by providing at least 7 individuals in each region with indirect financial support for their start-up innovative business), and thus, stem the flow of migration.
