Project “ Sustainability Indicators Expert ”

COAMBA manages the project “ Expert in Sustainability Indicators ”, framed within the 2022 call of the Empleaverde Program and co-financed by the European Social Fund ( ESF ) through the Empleaverde Program of the Biodiversity Foundation of the Ministry for Ecological Transition and the Demographic Challenge .
The public has begun to expect more and more information from businesses , in addition to the economic data they provide , on their potential environmental impacts , their care for the welfare of their own employees , and other socially significant issues .
Given this situation , which includes environmental degradation , resource overuse , and the current health and social crises , it is essential to train professionals with the knowledge and skills necessary to advise businesses on how to adopt a more sustainable model using objective and measurable standards like sustainability indicators .
It should be noted that the improvement of environmental sustainability is something that has a direct impact on the quality of life , which is a social benefit , and it is also important to bear in mind that the environmental impacts caused by companies can have repercussions beyond the local level .
Within this framework , the Professional Association of Graduates in Environmental Sciences of Andalusia ( COAMBA ) as beneficiary entity , started on April 11 , 2022 the project “ Expert in Sustainability Indicators ”, framed within the 2022 call of the Empleaverde Program and co-financed by the European Social Fund ( ESF ) through the Empleaverde Program
