Project Description

DG-VET project partners recognise the important contribution of the Digital and Green economy (DaGE) sectors to creating job opportunities for young people living in rural areas. According to the OECD's report ""Employment implications of Green Growth: Linking jobs, growth and green policies": - Green policies can achieve job creation in a number of ‘green’ economic sectors and through a transition of the economy towards more labour-intensive services sectors, while job destruction especially occurs in ‘brown’ sectors whose activities get replaced by green sectors. - Existing labour market policy tools are largely sufficient, but can be applied more effectively. Education and training systems that prepare workers for future labour demand needs are especially important to smooth the transition. - The digital economy has the potential to enhance productivity, income and social well-being. It is creating job opportunities in new markets and increasing employment in some existing occupations. "

Project Impact

- Increased capacity of VET teachers/trainers to develop and assess the knowledge, skills, and attitudes of citizens and in particular young NEET people from rural areas on the emerging sectors of Digital and Green economy; - Increased self-awareness and critical thinking relating to self-reflection and ownership of personal and professional development; - Understanding of the problem-solving process which can be applied to better connect VET with the actual market needs; - Attainment across education modules; - Attainment of European key competences.
