The challenge
The Covid-19 pandemic has impacted the labour market with a speed never known before. In particular, it has impacted women who traditionally have greater challenges to overcome when it comes to building successful careers (family burden, limited mobility strengthened by the pandemic). Through our innovative tool and a series of seminars, we aim to empower women to find their digital path on the labour market by upskilling or opening their own business.
The solution
The WIN project goal will develop, test, and disseminate a practice-oriented, ICT-based pilot system supporting entrepreneurial women by automatically matching identified skills with needed competencies related to remote and distance jobs or business creation. It will adapt the innovative tool SMRT.bio to local needs. The solution is currently being implemented in Poland in support of migrants from Ukraine.
