Adult participation in education and training remains limited and unbalanced, the least qualified public showing the lowest participation rate.

In fact, adults with low qualification or without qualification and the school drop-outs   often face obstacles that block them from gaining access to continuous training and previous training has made the low-skilled adults reluctant to traditional learning methods due to the fact that these are slightly related to their workplace and daily life.

The L-Green Project proposes integrated approaches which refer to sustainable development, with concern for the development of ecological behavior and especially for key competencies for social and professional integration.

 

The target groups of L-Green Project are:

-          the direct target group are trainers and teachers in adult education field;

-          the indirect target group are low-skilled adults, low qualified or without qualification, drop-outs young adults, immigrants;

 

The project aims to improve and to support trainers in their approach to the target group and to facilitate the target groups’ access to new jobs.

The L-Green Project will develop an innovative approach in learning key competences, integrated into a transversal dimension, the environment and sustainable development, which motivates the target group: The project aims at:

o   developing new methodologies and tools to increase key competencies for low-skilled adults through environment
