AgriGreenSkills aims to equip small-scale farmers and agricultural trainers with accessible green skills and digital competences to successfully adapt to the European Green Deal. The project focuses especially on farmers with limited formal education and low digital literacy, ensuring that sustainability becomes practical, understandable, and economically viable for all.
The project pursues the following key objectives:
• Introduce basic green skills related to sustainable farming, climate adaptation, biodiversity conservation, soil and water management.
• Reduce resistance to green policies by clarifying EU sustainability requirements and highlighting economic opportunities (eco-certifications, subsidies, climate-smart practices).
• Develop an inclusive digital training model tailored to farmers with low digital confidence.
• Enhance digital literacy through accessible, video-based and mobile-friendly learning.
• Strengthen collaboration and civic engagement between farmers, cooperatives, VET providers, and policymakers.
AgriGreenSkills will deliver the AgriGreen Hub, an open-access and user-friendly digital training platform designed to support farmers in developing green and digital competences. The project will create interactive learning modules featuring video-based lessons, real-life case studies, and step-by-step practical guidance to ensure that sustainability concepts are clear and applicable in everyday farming practice. The platform and materials will be piloted with farmers across partner countries to guarantee their relevance, accessibility, and usability in different rural contexts. In addition, the project will produce policy and practical recommendations to support the sustainable transition of the agricultural sector, alongside a dissemination and sustainability strategy that enables agricultural associations and VET providers to continue using, promoting, and updating the materials beyond the project’s lifetime.
UGREEN: Promoting Youth Green Initiatives for Sustainable Societies

Programme: Erasmus+ 2025, Small-scale partnerships in youth (KA210-YOU)
UGREEN aims to empower young people to actively participate in green initiatives and sustainable development by strengthening their entrepreneurial mindset, environmental awareness, and practical skills. At the same time, the project enhances the capacity of youth workers to effectively guide and support young people – especially those with fewer opportunities – towards green careers and eco-friendly initiatives.
The project seeks to:
• Raise environmental awareness and instil a sustainability mindset among young people.
• Develop practical, hands-on knowledge of renewable energy, permaculture, water and waste management, and sustainable construction.
• Build the capacity of youth workers to mentor youth in green entrepreneurship and eco-innovation.
• Encourage creation of green jobs and local initiatives, linking environmental protection with economic opportunities.
• Strengthen transnational cooperation and exchange of best practices in sustainability and youth work.
UGREEN will produce three key intellectual outputs. The first is the UGREEN Guidebook, a multilingual resource covering six green sectors: renewable energy, green buildings, sustainable transport, water, waste, and land management. The guidebook will serve as a practical tool for youth workers and young people to explore green initiatives and entrepreneurship opportunities. The second result is a structured Training Programme titled “How to Involve Youth with Green Initiatives,” designed to equip youth workers with the skills and methodologies needed to engage young people in sustainability and green entrepreneurship. The third output is the Catalog of Practical Activities for Green Initiatives, a hands-on resource featuring real-life examples, practical activities, and success stories to inspire youth participation in environmental projects.
Through workshops, pilot testing, and a valorisation conference, UGREEN will strengthen youth engagement in sustainability, promote green jobs and entrepreneurship, and foster long-term cooperation between youth organizations and green sector stakeholders across partner countries.
