Each project activity reflects an interconnected approach to achieving the goals of the CircuWasteVETAfrica project. It adopts a collaborative working method where the process has been broken into several stages and involves constant collaboration with VET schools and private and public stakeholders with continuous improvement and iteration at every stage.
The consortium will design a Train the Trainer programme with content around six relevant training materials that focuses on the pedagogical upskilling and training transfer to learners, circular waste technical skills, circular business model, micro entrepreneurship, public and private partnership and digital innovation. The output of this programme will help pilot a Learner’s Programme with African students in Ghana, Namibia, Angola and Sao Tome. A detailed curriculum that will focus on Digital Green Waste Management and Circular Economy courses.
The consortium will engage stakeholders in the circular economy and green waste value chain and conduct a skills gaps assessment in project countries to help tailor the programmes based on industry need and leverage initial stakeholders contribution for the project’s exploitation.
Additionally, we will boost the project impact by establishing the project’s brand awareness through local community engagement, partnerships between VET institutions and local authority and ensure the dissemination of all project results in EU and Africa and accreditation of the VET programme.
