PROJECT DESCRIPTION (DE)
Context
The Armenian economy faces several challenges that prevent it from transforming into a green and resilient economy. These include:
- the change in the Armenian economy from a planned, centrally controlled model to a liberal economic model,
- the high risk of poverty among young people, as more than a quarter of them are not in training, employment or further education,
- few women in management positions and male-dominated sectors,
- the lack of support for green and digital innovations as well as for small and medium-sized enterprises and start-ups,
- the large discrepancy between the supply and demand for qualifications,
- the emigration of qualified young people,
- the territorial disputes with Azerbaijan and
- the dependence on Russia as the most important market for Armenian exports and at the same time a lack of diversity in economic exports.
Goal
Armenia can better utilize its potential for a change towards a future-oriented economy in selected sectors.
Approach
The project:
- raises awareness of the transformation towards a future-oriented economy
- promotes green and digital skills in vocational training
- expands the range of future-oriented training and further education in order to better qualify trainees and workers, especially in a resource-saving economy and digital instruments
- adapts the innovation ecosystem to the needs of a future-oriented Armenian economy, taking into account female entrepreneurs and green or long-term business models.
