The European Executive Agency for Education and Culture (EACEA) has published the results of 2024 selection for Capacity Building in Vocational Education and Training projects (CBVET). Therefore, 73 projects have been recommended for funding, five of them having institutions from the Republic of Moldova as partners.
Capacity building projects are international cooperation projects based on multilateral partnerships between organisations active in the field of VET in EU Member States and third countries associated to the Programme, and third countries not associated to the Programme (the rest of the world, including the Republic of Moldova). They aim to support the relevance, accessibility, and responsiveness of VET institutions and systems in third countries not associated to the Programme as a driver of sustainable socio-economic development.
