Project Name: YES C+C: Enhancing creative, cultural and innovation skills for adults

 

Acronym YES C+C

 

Implementation period 01-03-2021 - 28-02-2023

 

Challanges The active role that innovative creativity and culture can play in the post-Covid area is very important to guarantee more resilient societies thanks to collaboration with the educational sector, being a niche of new employment opportunities, promoting social inclusive projects not to leave no one behind and improving the sustainably green footprint of the new creative projects. Therefore, the whole partnership is formed by organisations with complementary competences and experience who currently deal with the main project issues: adults, culture and creativity, education, employment and social inclusion. Hence, the base of YES C+C Project demonstrates that partners are fully committed to develop outputs that will be used after the end of the project implementation period in their in-house services.
