Dutch PROFARM Conference
On behalf of the project team PROfessional and personal empowerment in social FARMing (PROFARM) De Groene Welle organises the first Dutch Network Meeting, scheduled for Thursday January 19th, 2017. De Groene Welle collabourates with Dutch partner St. Dutch Foundation of Innovation Welfare 2 Work. Besides the Dutch there are also representatives from Italy and Germany. The project is led by the province of Umbria in Italy.
In order to develope innovative European policy reform for social farming, the project focuses mainly on teaching students that need to develop into a fully fledged job in the green sector.
During this project we will develop an appropriate learning path, in a Work Based Learning setting offering a educational program within a care farm / social business. With this appropriate learning route we want to prepare them for a position on the labour market. Obtaining a certification, preferably a degree appropriate to the capabilities of the student in question is a very important goal. More information can be found on the PROFARM website – click here and on Facebook
We would like to get together and get to know ‘Your experience, ideas and opportunities’, so we can build a Work Based Learning curriculum.
