This brochure was compiled within the framework of the one-year project entitled ‘Development of green jobs in the agricultural sector: contribution to the implementation of the Europe 2020 strategy’.

It was funded by the European Commission, Directorate General for Employment, Social Affairs and Inclusion within the framework of the Progress Programme VS/2012/0420.
