About

Croatia and Serbia’s cross-border area is faced with intensified emigration of young people, which affects the region’s development potential. A large number of unemployed people prove that the labor market today requires certain skills, competences and knowledge. To solve this fast-paced problem, partners of the COMMON project will conduct market analyzes to understand the real needs of the economy and market. In addition, the project will set up educational programs to provide new knowledge to the unemployed and design an online networking platform to present market needs, employment opportunities and educational material. In this way, COMMON plans to raise competitiveness and consequently provide new opportunities for long-term unemployed residents of the cross-border region, particularly young people.

Partners

The lead partner also plans to develop the online networking portal and present it to stakeholders. The platform will provide information on available educations to businesses, individuals and other users.
