ACE-EX offre il proprio contributo alla trasformazione dell’agricoltura europea attraverso l’integrazione dei principi dell’Economia Circolare per promuovere un modello di produzione agricola sostenibile e rispettoso dell’ambiente. Il progetto si posiziona in perfetta sintonia con le direttive del Green Deal europeo, ed ha l’obiettivo di minimizzare l’impatto ambientale, formare esperti altamente qualificati, impegnandosi nella lotta contro il cambiamento climatico e favorendo una crescita economica rispettosa dell’ambiente. ACE-EX pone l’accento sull’importanza di aggiornare costantemente le competenze nel settore agricolo e industriale per tenere il passo con le evoluzioni tecnologiche e le sfide imposte dal cambiamento climatico.
Background del Progetto
ACE-EX si colloca in un contesto in cui l’innovazione agricola assume un ruolo cruciale per rispondere alle sfide imposte dal cambiamento climatico e dalla necessità di proteggere la biodiversità. Attualmente, il modello produttivo agricolo prevalente, che non sfrutta completamente i sottoprodotti, necessita di un cambiamento paradigmatico verso un sistema più sostenibile. Le proiezioni sottolineano l’urgenza di agire: entro il 2050, l’impatto di un mancato cambiamento delle metodologie produttive in uso potrebbe tradursi anche in un considerevole numero di vite umane perse ogni anno.
Di fronte al rapido susseguirsi dei cambiamenti tecnologici e climatici, è fondamentale un aggiornamento costante delle competenze degli operatori del settore. ACE-EX evidenzia il valore dell’Economia Circolare, vista non solo come una pratica da adottare in agricoltura e nell’industria, ma anche come un catalizzatore per la formazione professionale, in linea con gli obiettivi del Piano d’Azione per l’Economia Circolare e con il Green Deal europeo, per promuovere una crescita economica rispettosa e sostenibile.
ACE-EX riconosce e affronta le problematiche di un settore composto prevalentemente da piccole imprese, che evidenziano la necessità di curricula specializzati per facilitare l’adozione di pratiche di Economia Circolare.
La nostra prospettiva si concentra sull’importanza di progettare curricula professionali innovativi e mirati, capaci di promuovere l’adozione di pratiche circolari e sostenibili nelle attività quotidiane delle imprese.
