“ALCORCÓN EN EUROPA” initiative was created to meet the needs of the town of Alcorcón and its nearby areas which record a high unemployment rate. This situation, like in the rest of Spain, is consequence of the economic crisis that we are facing in recent years. Within this framework, the local population suffers increasing needs that are irectly connected with the lack of experience and job opportunities. For this reason the main objective of this project is to promote the employability of unemployed people of Alcorcon and its surroundings by improving their chances of personal development and employability levels. "ALCORCON EN EUROPA" is promoted by a consortium, coordinated by the Instituto Municipal para el Empleo y la Promoción Económica de Alcorcón -IMEPE, (Local Institution for the Promotion of Employment and Economy) and formed by other entities related to Education, Training and Employment. These entities have past experience in the organization of mobility programs.
