Objective
As small farms diversify their activity, there will be a need for new knowledge to develop skills and to create attitudes that stimulate rural development. The goals of this project are therefore to improve the quality and innovation capacity of member states' vocational training systems and arrangements by developing modules in training programmes for specialised farm-related economic activities, and to promote equal opportunity as regards access for men and women to vocational training. The primary target group is older rural populations, linked to farms, especially women.
Five modules will be developed on: women confidence-building and skills upgrading, core skills, rural tourism, small scale processing on farms, and caring work on farms for disabled people.
Impact
Organisations, schools and colleges will be able to run similar programmes based on the experiences of this pilot project. A greater number of small-holder farmers will therefore be able to benefit.
