2Good2Go
The Sustainable Tuscany Foundation represents Italy in a new Erasmus+ project aimed at introducing zero-waste economic models.
” Too Good To Go – Zero Waste Economic Transformation for SMEs” is a new Erasmus+ KA220-VET project born from the Polish organization PAIZ’s interest in eco-friendly behavior models. Having already participated in projects focused on developing sustainable habits, the project partners, including Fondazione Toscana Sostenibile, understood that climate change and pollution required more decisive action. This is how 2Good2Go’s goal of introducing zero-waste economic models was born, with a genuine interest in taking a step towards sustainability.
Obiettivi
Thanks to preliminary analysis and internal consultations within the partnership, the project partners—from Poland, Italy, Bulgaria, Croatia, and Lithuania—have defined three main objectives that 2good2go will pursue throughout its 30-month duration. This European project aims to encourage SME entrepreneurs to adopt zero-waste policies and implement action plans, thus paving the way for other small and medium-sized enterprises. The involvement of SME leaders will allow partners to identify and develop the skills needed for a successful transition to a zero-waste economy, acting as agents of sustainable change. Therefore, the project aims to provide vocational training experts with comprehensive learning programs , best practice examples, and various tools to adapt their training methods to SME leaders, enabling them to develop crucial skills for sustainable development.
Partenariato
With a view to a more environmentally friendly future and economy, the Fondazione Toscana Sostenibile draws on the experience of volunteer Simone Pagni , technical-scientific coordinator of the FTS. An environmental engineer with 15 years of experience in consulting and research on environmental policies and tools for sustainability and climate change adaptation, Pagni is an expert in the field.
For its contribution to the project, FTS is also supported by the Sant’Anna School of Advanced Studies , a highly selective public research university with special status, located in Pisa. Sant’Anna School represents globally recognized academic excellence in the field of circular economy, with its dedicated doctoral program and team of researchers. A pioneer in this discipline, from circular economy to corporate environmental management , FTS will benefit from Sant’Anna’s expertise in this area of research.
Furthermore, FTS also has the opportunity to collaborate with Skillman.eu , the global network for advanced manufacturing skills. Launched in 2014, Skillman.eu is the largest multilateral network in the EU that combines training practices and knowledge of market-required skills with a systemic and sector-specific information system. Giovanni Crisonà , Head of Skillman.eu, states: “We collaborate with organizations both at European and non-European level. These include industries in the sector, universities and research centers, NGOs, training institutions, and public institutions. We have already collaborated with FTS in the past and our partnership has proven successful, so we are delighted to offer our support to this Erasmus+ project.”
Finally, the Italian team is pleased to be able to count on the support of CNA , particularly Barbara Carli and Valentina Cesaretti, coordinator for CNA Pisa and training manager for CNA Pisa’s training agency, “Copernico . “ CNA, the National Confederation of Crafts and Small and Medium-Sized Enterprises , boasts over 70 years of experience addressing the issues facing small and medium-sized businesses. CNA is the largest representative association in Italy, offering widespread coverage thanks to its presence in every province. As Barbara Carli emphasizes, “CNA has a clear vision of what society, development, and the economy in Italy should be. Our goal is to represent and protect the interests of Italian SMEs, while supporting our society’s transition to a more sustainable lifestyle .” “This means,” Valentina Cesaretti continues, “that our participation in the 2Good2Go project was born organically from the collaboration with the Fondazione Toscana Sostenibile. European projects like this are absolutely necessary at a time when zero-waste economic models seem to be the only option for a sustainable future.”
