Objective
Despite European equal opportunities legislation there are still blocks to women successfully entering employment. Lack of access to training opportunities has been identified as a major barrier. The aim of this project is to ensure effective and consistent implementation of equal opportunities legislation through the development of an innovative equal opportunities training scheme for women. Its goal is to open up new areas of work and to reintegrate women returners and unemployed women into the work force by offering accessible, innovative training. This accessibility will be developed by building links and networks between a range of different partners - universities, trade unions, industry, businesses and women's voluntary organisations.
A range of transnational partners from Ireland, Finland, France and Germany will work together to design, deliver and pilot the training programme. In conjunction with the transfer of the product and information to the participants of the programme, the partnership will develop a range of strategies to disseminate the project results.
Impact
The project's products will provide organisations in the EU with access to information and expertise which will result in a more strategic and pro-active approach to equal opportunities.
