SHIVAA
Professions in the field of the environment (water, waste,
recycling, energy efficiency, alternative transportation,
maintenance, management of natural areas) are vectors
for integration and qualification for unemployed people,
even with low qualifications. (Unemployed, 45 years and
+, people with no or low qualifications, women, disabled
people, ...).
Innovative activities which were carried out in Europe
(guidance, training, «sites for inclusion»...) are often
ignored and undervalued. The lack of diffusion and
capitalization leads to an important loss of social,
economic and environmental efficiency.
People responsible of job agencies, actors for training
and guidance have often a lack of knowledge concerning
these new carriers
