TRAIN-CE-FOOD First Work Package: A State-of-the-Art Report
The TRAIN-CE-FOOD first work package was delivered, in an attempt to generate and understand youth entrepreneurship and cooperatives. In fact, the report is an analysis of CE business models of food supply at a European level, with primary focus on:
- State of the art competencies.
- A benchmark of good practices.
- Assessing the performance of the current situation; and, identify synergies, gaps, and duplications.
The goals of the state-of-the-art report formation were the following:
- Mapping the level of knowledge about CE food supply chains, entrepreneurship, and cooperatives. In particular, the mapping process occurred by a competency self-assessment on the targeted; and, by identification of the common competency gaps on international scale.
- Examination of the CE food supply chains, entrepreneurship, and cooperatives integration, within the existing secondary school and HEIs’ curriculums; textbooks; and, other learning materials. And, draw a comparison between the involved countries.
- To draft a report on an assessment of current situation, by identifying synergies and gaps.
