GREENOVET - European VET Platform for Green Innovation

The Project will foster the development of Vocational Education and Training (VET) Excellence in Green Innovation across Europe and through the establishment of Centres of Vocational Excellence (CoVEs) that will enable an innovative, inclusive and sustainable economy. The CoVEs will focus the knowledge, resources and infrastructures of the key stakeholders into the development of innovation and skills ecosystems, contributing to regional development, and promoting environmental, social and economic development in Europe, through green and sustainable innovation processes enabled by VET Excellence. In an early stage, the project includes four regions, in different parts of Europe, with different development and challenges: Styria (Austria) Vaasa (Finland) Skopje (North Macedonia) Leiria (Portugal) GREENOVET brings together regional VET providers at different levels (upper-secondary VET and higher VET), local companies (larger ones and SME), sector and employer representatives, regional governments, as well as regional innovation agencies. However, it also stretches to a national level by involving national ministries and social partners as associated partners, assuring coordination and coherence across governmental levels.
