This project helps people at risk of exclusion, disabled people or patients undergoing treatment to access decent housing and improve the habitability of these homes, promoting their quality of life and emotional well-being. Working alongside organisations, they carry out life-changing sustainable refurbishments, prioritising energy efficiency and resource optimisation. These actions prioritise energy efficiency in buildings, making it possible to reduce families’ utility costs and increase their well-being.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/4″][vc_single_image image=”89331″ img_size=”full”][vc_column_text]Konecta Foundation:<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0Green Jobs Hub for vulnerable people<\/a><\/p>\n The main objective is to promote green economy employment opportunities, including in the area of renewable energies, especially for young and vulnerable people, by improving their employability with training courses and qualifications, in both companies and with freelancers, as well as supporting people who wish to start their own business. At the same time, it boosts research and drives the generation of knowledge on this subject through Sustainable Challenges involving various project collaborators.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/4″][vc_single_image image=”92633″ img_size=”full”][vc_column_text]Habitatge Social Foundation:<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0Prometheus Project<\/a><\/p>\n The initiative aims to reduce the incidence of energy poverty among families who rent social flats.
