February 2024

he meeting on 13 February 2024 focused on presenting the results of the desk research and comparing green skills in the various countries. New Project showed a comparative report, highlighting missing soft skills. The partners agreed to send questionnaires via email to collect business practices on green skills and organize national workshops by March. Deadlines have been set for data collection and implementation of the workshops, with the aim of sharing the results by mid-April. The second transnational meeting has been planned for 23 and 24 May in Athens. Meeting of 13 February 2024: Research Results, Questionnaires and Planning of the Second Transnational Meeting. The meeting of 13.02.2024 was held which focused on desk research highlighting the main findings and commonalities between the researches of each country. In particular, New Project showed a power-point presentation of the comparative report; It highlights key findings and commonalities between each country’s research, but also missing soft skills that might be interesting to focus on. Secondly, the team discussed the next phase of research activities and defined the model for data collection through the national workshop and how to implement it. The partners agreed to create and then send questionnaires via e-mail aimed at investigating the practices implemented by companies to facilitate the development of green skills. The main deadlines by which the partners will participate in the definition of the applications to investigate the most important aspects have been defined: 13/02-20/02 AdIM and Zeus will send the applications in English to the Spanish partner; 21/02-29/02 the Spanish partner NewProject will develop the common questionnaires that each partner will use for their national result and translated into their own language. Again, on 01/03-15/03 by the first half of March each partner will organize an online workshop, involving the representatives of the target group (there is no minimum number to reach, there can also be two or three targets). The workshop can also be conducted using the questionnaire as a guideline for discussion and comparison among participants. To demonstrate the realization of the workshop, then, it is necessary to have an agenda, an activity to promote the event, as well as multimedia presentations useful for conducting the discussion. In order to reach a significant target group, which allows 3 best practices to be identified, it was decided to send questionnaires by e-mail and collect more results. In order to prevent any problems with the scheduling of the workshops on the scheduled days, the partners may carry it out after sending the questionnaire with a deadline of the first half of April. In fact, at that time, precisely by April 15, the team will share the main results collected at national level and, starting from these, will discuss and agree on the model to be used for the interviews. Instead, by May 15 each partner will carry out three interviews to select good practices and in the second transnational meeting each partner will translate the results of the interview into English.  The last step of the monitoring meeting was then to agree on the dates of the second transnational meeting. It was decided to hold the second meeting in person on 23 and 24 May in Athens. While waiting for a final confirmation from Zeus consulting about the dates of the next meeting, the partners work to achieve the objectives set during the monitoring.
