Biodiversity Foundation Project: LAB REACTIVA

The project focuses on the creation of sustainable companies with new business lines that promote economic recovery and alternative development in the regions of Murcia and Castilla y León. The economies of these regions are primarily based on declining economic sectors such as agriculture, livestock, and forestry, as well as tourism. The Reactiva Lab aims to evolve from unsustainable development to a green model by identifying synergies and opportunities among the 23 participants who will attend the three planned labs. These labs combine innovative training and support activities for participating entrepreneurs who have a green business idea but need to develop and validate it before launching it.

In this process of change, new employment must be sustainable, local, and of high quality. It is essential to consider all stakeholders affected by this shift in the economic model, providing solutions for workers from the old production model so they can relocate to other sectors and once again become an active part of the labor market. Furthermore, special attention must be paid to equal opportunities between women and men, so that the transformation of production models carried out within the framework of the transition contributes to promoting equal employment conditions, also based on renewable energy and the circular economy.
