The transition towards a circular economy presents significant challenges and opportunities for the social economy sector.
Our French partner – AgroParisTech – redacted this paper to contribute to the International Social Innovation Research Conference in Bern. The article “Bridging the skills gap to empower the social economy and to boost circular economy ” has been developed on the Education and skills development topic.
It explores the competencies, skills, and training required to facilitate this green transition, drawing on findings from the baSE project – a comprehensive European initiative under the Erasmus+ Program aimed at advancing skills and training in the social economy for green transition. The findings contribute to the development of strategic educational frameworks that align with circular economy objectives, highlighting the pivotal role of the social economy in becoming a sustainable and resilient socioeconomic system.
