Projects
Remodel
REMODEL project aims to increase awareness of the environmental impact of agri-food production.
This includes the use of natural resources such as water, land, and energy, as well as greenhouse gas emissions from production processes and waste.
The project aims to promote the conscious use of waste from the agri-food chain by reusing it to obtain products with higher added value. These products may have applications in the nutraceutical, food, and pharmaceutical fields. For this purpose, a methodology with low environmental impact was adopted, using supercritical CO2 extraction to extract molecules with potential bioactivity. The project also aims to support researchers by providing scientific data on the extracted molecules, facilitating research into new drugs or the development of wellness products.
By facilitating interaction through an interactive web platform, REMODEL encourages knowledge sharing to both experts and non-experts, collaboration and service provision, addressing industrial, environmental, social and economic challenges related to food waste.
My Farm
"My Farm" is a project focused on promoting multifunctional agriculture to address modern challenges like food security and climate change. It aims to redefine farming by integrating social, environmental, and economic functions. Through education and practical initiatives, it equips stakeholders with skills for sustainable and innovative farming practices, aligning with European strategies like the Green Deal and CAP. Ultimately, "My Farm" seeks to create a resilient and diversified agricultural sector that meets the needs of both society and the environment
Food Chase
The Food Chase project aims to address the significant challenge of food waste throughout the supply chain by fostering collaboration among international and multi-stakeholder consortiums. With an annual waste of 88 million tons of food in the EU alone, costing an estimated 143 billion euros, the project recognizes the urgent need for action. By chasing food along the supply chain, the project seeks to prevent food losses and ensure the valorization of food waste. This entails changing established business practices and citizen habits to reduce waste. With food waste accounting for approximately 20% of all food produced in the EU, the project's focus on this issue is both timely and necessary. The collaboration between various stakeholders underscores the complexity of the challenge and the need for a concerted effort to address it effectively.
Digital Farmer
In these days, farmers need to acquire a new set of skills that may be used in various contexts. Through European funding and an international multi-stakeholder collaboration between training institutions, research, universities, industrial consulting, and territorial promotion companies, the Digital Farmer project intends to create a project aimed at producing instructional materials and cutting-edge work-based learning methodologies, platforms for awareness, in order to address this macro-need.
CAPS Alliance
In Kenya and Somalia, agriculture stands as a cornerstone of the economy, contributing significantly to GDP and employment. However, this vital sector faces pressing challenges, primarily driven by climate change, threatening food security and livelihoods. Additionally, high unemployment rates, particularly among the youth, pose a significant concern.
To address these critical issues, our project, CAPS Alliance, focuses on enhancing Vocational Education and Training (VET) systems in Sub-Saharan Africa. We're committed to the following:
We aim to equip VET teachers with innovative teaching methods and digital competencies to enhance skills development. Our success will be measured by the percentage of teachers adopting these approaches.
We're strengthening expertise in climate-smart agriculture practices and agripreneurship to foster sustainable agricultural growth.
We're working towards standardized curricula that align with continental qualifications frameworks, promoting harmonization and integration in VET education.
Our online platform and forum will facilitate collaboration between VET systems and the labor market, bridging the gap between education and employment in the agricultural sector.
Agereco
Vocational Education and Training in Agricultural and Economic Sustainability for Agricultural MSEs project intends to involve the agricultural sector in rural areas, where the knowledge of sustainable agriculture techniques are still to be developed and where the abandonment and its impacts on landscape features have been a striking characteristic of many European rural areas over the last decades. More specifically, the direct target groups of the activities are 10 micro enterprises, and 5 medium-sized enterprises in the agricultural sector for each territory of the organizations participating in the project: Portugal, Romania and Italy.
