Sustainable Argentine Industries

Development and application of programmes and tools for productive sustainability and low carbon economy in Argentine MSMEs.

The project focuses on developing a comprehensive service for MSMEs with a tailor-made plan, including certifications of sustainability standards, security and appropriate technology. The implementation of this project aims to benefit 500 small enterprises in Argentina.

The project services help companies to design and implement plans for the transition to more sustainable production processes:

      • Training sessions covering the implementation processes of such projects (including digitisation and sustainability tools, regulatory frameworks, available funding sources, certifications needed in various industries and markets).

      • Diagnostics aimed at identifying opportunities to improve the production processes of companies.

      • Development of work plans for the adaptation of processes and the promotion of sustainable practices.

      • Identifying funding needs and coordinating access to new tools with other organisations providing similar resources.

      • Implementation of facilities for access to national and international meetings and participation in sector fairs.

    In addition, participating companies will receive a best practice manual and will have access to specialists who will support them throughout the process by providing technical assistance.
