Uula – New Skills for Green Tran­si­tion Sec­tors

The goal of the Uula project is to intro­duce new tools and ser­vices to pro­mote employ­ment growth and pro­vide oppor­tu­ni­ties for acquir­ing new skills in green tran­si­tion sec­tors, par­tic­u­lar­ly in response to the trans­for­ma­tion of the peat indus­try in North­ern Ostro­both­nia.

The project aims to enhance employ­ment and busi­ness oppor­tu­ni­ties for the tar­get group through indi­vid­u­al­ized career guid­ance and mod­els that sup­port social inclu­sion. It includes map­ping out the train­ing and skill require­ments of green tran­si­tion sec­tors. Based on these assess­ments, var­i­ous train­ing pro­grams for the green tran­si­tion will be devel­oped and pilot­ed, even­tu­al­ly form­ing com­pre­hen­sive train­ing pack­ages imple­ment­ed dur­ing the project.

The project is co-fund­ed by the Euro­pean Union.
