This event is being organised by Fife Voluntary Action
This particular event is free to attend, so no payment is required.
It is too late to book a place for this particular session, sorry about that.
FVA lunchtime learning sessions are aimed at raising the skills and capacities of local service providers interested in improving or enhancing their provision in Fife.
The Forth Green Freeport is under development to deliver a just transition to net zero, by attracting significant inward investment, building international trade and export capability, and to creating jobs.
Green Freeports are areas of operational and development land linked to a port where normal tax and customs rules are varied to promote growth and trade.
The Green Freeport policy aims to drive investment into deprived communities, increasing employment opportunities and economic activity.
Green Freeports comprises both private and public organisations who work together to deliver the vision.
The Forth Green Freeport ambition is to use technology backed skills development to address areas of acute deprivation within nearby Southeast Scotland communities.
At this session, Sarah Murray from the Forth Green Freeport will tell us:
- What kinds of new green job opportunities are likely to be emerging from the Freeport
- How the Freeport can help support Fife’s employability vision and accelerate green skills pathway work in terms of Fair Work principles
- How the Freeport and the Fife employability network can benefit from each other’s development strategies, including skills programmes through a dedicated fund
