Achieving the following goals is aimed with the project's implementation: Development of agricultural vocational training capacities of partner institutions through the project. Providing training modules focused on climate change in agricultural vocational education. Ensuring that students who have graduated from partner institutions and agricultural professionals who have received training are better prepared to work in climate-change-affected agriculture. Extending the positive impact area by ensuring that people who benefit from online education are better prepared for agriculture in the face of climate change. Ensuring that farmers are better prepared for climate change conditions through training of trainers. Training the equipped workforce needed by the agricultural sector to cope with climate change. Contribute to the adaptation of the agricultural sector and the solution of problems related to the food supply for disadvantaged individuals living in rural areas. Contribute to the adaptation of the agricultural sector and the solution of problems related to the food supply.
Climate change is one of the most important issues facing the world. The risk of climate change is now at an irreversible point. After this stage, it is important to reduce, mitigate and adapt its effects. On February 24, 2021, the European Commission adopted the new EU strategy for climate change adaptation. This strategy explains how the European Union can prepare for the unavoidable effects of climate change and become climate resilient by 2050. Agriculture is one of the most vulnerable sectors to climate change. It is estimated that climate change will result in a reduction of around 16% in EU agricultural production by 2050. Agricultural production can be maintained in a planned, conscious, and efficient manner under climate change conditions. Agricultural professionals are critical to the long-term viability of agriculture in the face of climate change. Training agricultural professionals who will advise and train producers, can be the start of a rapid adaptation process. As a result, the project's goal is to train trainers. Agricultural vocational education needs to be modernised to meet the needs to be able to train individuals for agricultural production under climate change conditions. This is the focus of the project.
