New ways of growing the future
This project will promote agricultural growth and employment within the agricultural sector of Tunisia.
There is a clear gap between the knowledge and skills agricultural TVET graduates have, and the (practical) knowledge and skills jobs in the agricultural sector require.
By strengthening the capacities and knowledge of the TVET teachers, both in content (protected cultivation, hydroponics, climate smart and saline agriculture and entrepreneurial skills) and on knowledge transfer, the quality and employability of our graduates will be improved.
The training program incorporates climate smart, saline, innovative and novel forms of screenhouse and greenhouse cultivation, the use of hydroponics, interactive training and development of soft-skills. Entrepreneurial knowledge will be gained in order to promote students to develop their own businesses, which in the future will facilitate jobs for other graduates.
