The LCA CARE project aims to support eco-innovative SMEs in the agri-food sector by developing an innovative tool and training resources to improve their ecological impact. The project will create and test the LCA CARE tool, a cloud-based application for SMEs to perform Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) and provide capacity-building for companies and education providers on LCA methodologies.
The goal is to help SMEs optimize the environmental impact of their products and promote eco-innovation. A consortium of 12 organizations from Portugal, Bulgaria, Germany, Lithuania, and Spain will design a post-graduate training program for SME managers and offer courses on LCA and eco-innovation. The project will also organize national and international events to raise awareness and engage SMEs, education providers, students, and professionals in LCA and sustainability.
