The EfVET Magazine is the official publication of the European Forum of Technical and Vocational Education and Training (EfVET), a Brussels-based network representing over 2,000 VET providers across more than 35 countries. The magazine serves as a platform for sharing policy insights, research, and good practices that shape the future of vocational education and training in Europe.
We are pleased to share the link to the latest issue of the EfVET Magazine (December 2025), which features the article “The Role of AgriNext Project in Raising Citizenship and Democratic Competences: VET Front-Runner.”
The article presents how the AgriNext project contributes to strengthening civic and democratic competences through vocational education, with a particular focus on rural development, multifunctional agriculture, and community-based innovation.
In this contribution, AgriNext is highlighted as a concrete example of how VET can go beyond employability and act as a driver of active citizenship, inclusion, and democratic participation in rural areas. The article situates AgriNext within broader European discussions on the role of VET in fostering resilient communities and sustainable socio-economic development.
