At the same time, it will support young graduates to have international experiences at the beginning of their career. The course will train a new, multidisciplinary professional profile, specialized in rooftop farming and gardening, what we call a Green Roof Technician. This professional will be able to design, assess, plan and implement green rooftops solutions, through a thorough approach encompassing engineering\/technical competences, gardening\/agronomy and social animation skills. From these considerations the project purpose is to offer to young graduates in construction engineering, landscape architecture, urban planning etc. the opportunity to receive training in an innovative curriculum of high ecological and social value, to foster their employability and to tackle with contemporary ecological issues, trying to transform these challenges in new job opportunities.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The key project results are:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Green Roofs Training Course and Platform Development (A Multidisciplinary and modular Green Roof<br \/>\nTraining Course on Green Roofs, -E-learning platform hosting a job-placement section to facilitate the<br \/>\nsearch of internships on Green Roofs)<\/li>\n<li>Green Roofs Trainers\u2019 Handbook (Learning Snacks for Green Roofs Technician Trainers for effective<br \/>\nimplementation of the training methodology)<\/li>\n<li>Guidelines for Green Roofs Training (Guidelines for Green Roofs Training to facilitate the adoption of<br \/>\nthe course in Higher Education and promote the further development of the training)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>The Target group is:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Students and young graduates in construction engineering.<\/li>\n<li>Professors and trainers teaching in construction engineering and related courses.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>The indirect target group is:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>landscape architects, urban planners and similar professional profiles<\/li>\n<li>Business, SMEs, NGOs, public authorities and other organizations dealing with urban regeneration and<br \/>\nspecifically green roofs.<\/li>\n<li>Urban gardeners, professionals and amateurs will benefit from new economic or volunteer<br \/>\nengagement opportunities<\/li>\n<li>Socially excluded people and\/or from disadvantaged backgrounds.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The project, will also target trainers, who will be guided on how to provide this kind of training and improve their competences in teaching for environmental sustainability. Regarding urban biodiversity, our project will contribute to raise awareness about how important it is to increase the amount of green spaces in cities. Therefore, by learning about green roofs students participate in our training will also get familiar with broader sustainability issues, and gain competences that fall within those put forward by the European Sustainability.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":5172,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-5396","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/green-roofs.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/LOGO-GREENROOFS-RGB-72dpi.png?fit=1080%2C743&ssl=1","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/green-roofs.eu\/ro\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5396"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/green-roofs.eu\/ro\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/green-roofs.eu\/ro\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/green-roofs.eu\/ro\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/green-roofs.eu\/ro\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=5396"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/green-roofs.eu\/ro\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5396\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/green-roofs.eu\/ro\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/5172"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/green-roofs.eu\/ro\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=5396"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/green-roofs.eu\/ro\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=5396"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/green-roofs.eu\/ro\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=5396"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
