The TEMS (Training, Employment, Maintenance and Sustainability) Project brought together experts from most SAUL regions. It examined the feasibility of developing a programme for construction and long-term care and maintenance, by training and employing people suffering the consequences of long term unemployment, economic and social exclusion. Through a Joint Planning Group experiences were shared on different approaches to this challenge, including developing intermediate labour markets. Each region used their investment projects as test beds for engaging unemployed people in landscape construction and maintenance, with structured training programmes.
