During the first meeting in Spain, hosted by Newproject, the TREE Project partners will discuss the aims, objectives and areas of intervention, as well as the budget distribution and reporting rules. Newproject will present a handbook on best practices and desk research, with discussions on workshops and the handbook format. Topics related to communication, dissemination and the logo of the project will also be addressed. In addition, the Quality Assurance Plan (QA) and questionnaires to monitor the cooperation and quality of the project will be discussed. Planning of the first meeting of the TREE Project: Objectives, Budget and Quality Assurance It was agreed that during the first online meeting there will be a first face-to-face meeting between the partners in Spain, at the Newproject headquarters. It is expected that after an initial reception, the aims, specific objectives and areas of intervention, Targets, activities and expected results of the TREE Project will be illustrated. Within the team, as mentioned, three agencies take part: AdIM, Newproject and Zeus Consulting. In addition, each participant will have to bring his own presentation of these ideas, purposes, then debate with the others. It will also be necessary to discuss the distribution of the budget they have, the general rules for reporting the national agencies of the three countries and the creation of a timesheet. Again, Newproject will show its idea about the creation of the manual on best practices, illustrating its idea on the desk research to be carried out, on the recipients of this, on what are the contents and on any workshops to be included. Finally, we will then discuss the format that the manual should take, which then takes the configuration of a summary of the research. The manual will then take a very important place in the discussions that will also take place in subsequent face-to-face meetings, since its use is an important objective of the project. We will also talk about objectives, timing and tools (methods) for internal communication and external dissemination, after which we will share the graphic proposals for the project logo to be included in the website. previously formulated by the teams. It is also expected that there will also be experts and who will speak on issues related to sustainability and green skills. Another point on which it was planned to discuss is that relating to the Quality Assurance Plan (QA), which AdIM has sent. The contributions of the other two partners will therefore be considered to integrate them into the draft plan, which will also include questionnaires about the quality of cooperation and satisfaction between the partners monitored over time. A final point to be discussed will be the question of the indicators to be used to monitor the quality and effectiveness of the activities and the results achieved from it.

The first meeting of the TREE project saw the presentation of the partners involved: AdIM, Agencia Internacional Newproject and Research Zeus Consulting. During the meeting, the objectives of the project, in line with the Erasmus+ K2 programme, and the next steps, including three meetings between 2023 and 2025, were defined. The development of a handbook on best practices to improve green skills and promote employability in the green economy sector is planned, with a focus on eco-sustainability, green skills and green economy. TREE Project: European Collaboration for the Development of Green Skills. As previously pointed out, the first meeting between the partners of the TREE project was held. The first to make the presentations was AdIM which is an information agency that operates in the regional territory of Campania (Italy) and is the leader despite being at the first experience of collaboration with European partners. This is followed by the presentation of the Spanish partner based in Cadiz-Agencia Internacional Newproject, which deals with socio-educational projects and Social Innovation with the development of applications, ideas, concepts, products, services, methodologies and practices that contribute to producing changes in society in a collaborative way with the business environment. The presentation ends with the Greek partner – Research Zeus Consulting-The innovation you seek – which offers consulting services in the fields of technology, information technology, regional development, employment, innovation, environment, management and international collaborations, with particular experience in the implementation and technical support of European Union programs and initiatives in these sectors. The presentations were immediately followed by a digression about the project, its significance based on the key points of the Erasmus+ K2 programme, and the identification of the objectives to be achieved with TREE. The subsequent steps of organization of the work were also discussed, in order to obtain a global and unified vision of TREE. in particular, three meetings are planned in the three locations to which the partners belong: the first meeting in Spain in November 2023, followed by the second meeting in Greece in May 2024, ending with the final meeting in Italy in March 2025. In addition, the timetable also included the development of a best practices manual that will have to contain a series of useful knowledge to put in place what are the green skills essential to be able to carry out green jobs. Even more specifically, it has been understood that this manual, and the training courses that will have to be implemented, are intended to improve the levels of competence for employability in view of new job positions within the changing climate scenario. There are three keywords: eco-sustainability, green skills and green economy! In this sense, even more specifically, these objectives would allow us to have a broader view, a more integrated and articulated vision of the environment contingent on organizations (companies, businesses) and how these are in relation to this environment, in order to understand how the knowledge provided is aligned with the new opportunities and new needs in the labor market.
