Afternoon session
The BIOSkills: the competences that will drive the transition
Time: 13:30 – 16:30 CET
Registration: https://ec.europa.eu/eusurvey/runner/Transition2BIO_Final_Event
The green and digital transitions are opening up new opportunities for people and the EU economy. Having the relevant skills empowers people to successfully navigate labour market changes and to fully engage in society and democracy.
This will ensure that nobody is left behind and the economic recovery as well as the green and digital transitions are socially fair and just. A workforce with the skills that are in demand also contributes to sustainable growth, leads to more innovation and improves companies’ competitiveness.
The Transition2BIO Project in the past 2 years delivered a set of capacity building activities for public authorities, teachers and students with a view to foster the implementation of bioeconomy strategies and the communication of bioeconomy to multiple target audiences.
To do so, a set of materials such as Transitio2BIO Toolkits and training modules have been developed and delivered by the project.
An overview of such materials, together with instructions on how to use them and hand them over to relevant stakeholders will be provided at the beginning of the event.
