Deadline: 01 September 2022
JOVESÓLIDES, as a partner of the project in Spain, publishes a call for applications to provide subgrants to women’s start-ups in the agri-food sector that exist in the territory of the Valencian region.
For more than 2 years, the InnovAgroWoMed project has been promoting research, training and partnership networking actions at local and regional levels with the aim of actively supporting and strengthening women’s employment in the agri-food sector, specifically in the territories targeted by the project’s intervention which are Italy, Spain, Palestine and Tunisia.
InnovAgroWoMed is a project co-funded by the European Union through the ENI CBC MED program.
Women are reinventing the agri-food sector, although their recognition and visibility are not yet up to par. This reality is changing very slowly, and entrepreneurship is a powerful tool for all those who wish to develop professionally in the sector. Along these lines, Jovesólides continues to favor the breaking of the gender gap in the agri-food field and favoring social change, now in the form of scholarships.
