About the project
The Green PYMES Alliance project contributes to sustainable growth and job creation in Colombia and Honduras by supporting the green transition and the promotion of the social economy. Led by the Bucaramanga Chamber of Commerce, the project supports the transition of more than 200 SMEs in the agri-food, sustainable tourism, and waste management sectors towards environmentally sustainable business models.
The project strengthens the capacities of SMEs in Santander, La Guajira, Bolívar, and Caldas in Colombia, as well as Choloma in Honduras, by promoting low-carbon, resource-efficient, and circular economic practices, enhancing competitiveness and access to international markets.
With the support of Diesis Network, the project promotes social economy business models and transfers knowledge on European green transition policies through peer reviews, study visits, seminars, and networking, fostering cooperation with European social enterprises and contributing to green job creation in both countries.
