About TANGO
TANGO- Circular is a three-year Erasmus+ project. It aims to provide specific training to agricultural workers and relevant stakeholders, to enable solutions for a sustainable agricultural waste management and footprint reduction. Through the development and implementation of proper end-of-life materials management approaches based on good practices, technical references and collection schemes, this project aspires to foster the development of regional eco-systems directly providing a valuable input to the economy. Core of the Project will be the modelling, implementation and validation of “Rural Labs”, in which new ways of training will be explored, starting from an on-site training, and implementing new ICT tools (e.g., video-tutorials).
General objectives
Boost innovation through the development and implementation of new multidisciplinary approaches to teaching and learning in the agricultural sector.
Develop a sense of initiative and encourage an entrepreneurial mind-set, opening up new learning opportunities for farmers and stakeholders playing a key role in the waste management chain.
Identify resilience-related, market needs and emerging professions, including via the cooperation of
HEIs and VET providers with national, regional and local authorities, as well as the private sector to
contribute to the designing and implementation of Smart Sustainable Specialization Strategies (S4) in regions.
Specific Objectives
Develop and implement new multidisciplinary curricula for the valorization of agricultural wastes in the framework of a Circular Economy and by implementing new digital skills.
Test new learner-centered educational tools, customized upon the specific needs of the people to be trained.
Develop a specific model of rural living labs (Rural Labs) in the participating countries and to validate its replicability at EU level as an innovative organizational model to develop Sustainable Circular Business models in rural communities.
