KA2 Ad CECIL

CECIL is a 24 months Cooperation partnership aimed at promoting Circular Economy and Sustainability among women at risk of exclusion, by fostering a greater interaction between the European Green Deal and the EU Gender Equality Strategy 2020-2025. As resulting from the needs analysis conducted by the Consortium, a greater promotion is needed of the positive social impacts that Circular Economy (CE) can have on Adults at risk of exclusion, and on women in particular. In fact, CE can foster not only employability but also social inclusion, by promoting a greater sense of social justice and social equity within the greater framework of sustainable development, satisfying the needs of present and future generations.
