The aim of the project was to improve the continues learning within bioeconomy and circular economy, and to improve the relevance of the education in Central Finland, by closely co-operating with the region's business sector and with the invovled educational institutes (University of Jyväskylä, Jamk University of Applied Sciences, Gradia vocational school and POKE vocational school). The long term goal of the project is to forward the green transition in Central Finland. 

'Polkukartta.fi' is a concrete result from the project. It is a visual website, which combines all project results to one place: free and open access educational sustainability materials, future scenariors of how the green transition will impact different idustries, stories of how induviduals have benefitted from the Path 2.0 sustainability studies, as well as reports of the findings of the project (inc. report of how the regional businesses find the green transition).

The need for the project, is based on the EU-level pressure to implement green transition faster and for the fact that sustainability skills are needed more and more (i.e. due to tightened EU legistlation in sustainability matters).
