▶Objectives
The main objective of the project was to increase the employability and self-confidence of adults from rural and less developed areas by equipping them with practical skills in sustainable tourism and green entrepreneurship. We aimed to empower at least 60 adult learners to explore nature-friendly business ideas that protect local heritage and respond to growing eco-tourism trends. Through inclusive, easy-to-understand educational materials and interactive workshops, we wanted to make complex topics like sustainability, value chains, or climate responsibility accessible to all, including people with dyslexia or highly-functional autism. The project also sought to inspire participants to act as local change-makers by providing creative examples of sustainable practices and connecting entrepreneurship with community and environmental values. Finally, we aimed to foster cross-border cooperation and promote exchange of good practices between Slovakia and Hungary in adult education and green transition.
