Objective
Extremadura and Alentejo have traditionally been considered as depressed areas in the EU. They lack essential goods and services that enable other regions to thrive. Due to the preponderance of agriculture and the scarcity of industry, economic development is slow. The geographic situation of the region means that natural gas pipelines are routed across the area. Gas pipeline installation and distribution to towns, private homes, industries, hospitals and universities etc. provides an opportunity to develop skilled labour and technologies.
Bremen, the partner region, disposes of advanced technology and is a pioneer in Europe in the field of research and training in this area. Extremadura and Alentejo have high levels of unemployment but there is no vocational training centre with expertise in this field. The partners to this pilot project will therefore design and develop new training in gas installation.
Impact
The project will ensure that the employment opportunities resulting from future developments in the field of gas accrue to local workers from Extremadura and Alentejo rather than to workers from other areas.
