Welcome to WorkAble
Collaborative Research Project
“Making Capabilities Work” (WorkAble) will provide knowledge on how to enable young people to function as capable citizens in the labour markets of European knowledge societies. Thereby it addresses the pivotal question of which capabilities are important for young people so that they may
NOT ONLY ADAPT to currently prevalent conditions but also ACTIVELY STEER THEIR OWN FUTURE DEVELOPMENT.
By identifying best-practice solutions, WorkAble will account for extending young people‘s capabilities to get fully participating citizens in emerging European knowledge societies.
"WorkAble" is a collaborative research project in the 7th Framework Programme for Research in the Socio-economic Sciences and Humanities Theme (SSH).
Duration: 01 November 2009 - 31 October 2012
