Strategies for VET to support Port City Economies towards a Just Transition
Project in brief
The primary objective of PortAbility is to align with the broader goals of the CoVE call by developing innovative strategies and methods that position Vocational Education and Training (VET) not just as a contributor, but as a key driver for the economic diversification and transformation of Port City Regions. This will support the shift toward a ‘Just Transition’ as part of the broader movement towards a climate-neutral, digital, and inclusive economy.
The CoVE network in PortAbility is anchored in four Port City Regions in the Mediterranean basin: Italy (Taranto), Spain (Andalusia, focusing on Seville and Málaga), Greece (Volos, Thessaly), and the multiple port islands of Cyprus. In addition, a German cluster of organizations will contribute by sharing insights and best practices from the Hamburg area, where the “port transition” is already nearly complete, providing valuable examples for the PortAbility CoVE network.
The project partnership is composed of a total of 24 partners and 3 Associates; the coordinator will be FONDAZIONE C.I.O.F.S. - F.P. ETS.
