Innovation and wine territories: how to become a wine destination. Second meeting of second cycle of events to overcome the ‘gender gap’

On Friday 17 March 2023, from 10:30, at the Salone delle Assemblee of the La Guardiense winery in Guardia Sanframondi (BN), the Workshop entitled “Innovation and wine territories: how to become a wine destination. The role of female talent, training and connections”.

The initiative is part of the second cycle of meetings promoted by Regione Campania,  General Directorate for Social and Socio-Health Policies and implemented by Sviluppo Campania SpA as part of the project “Tracing the differences. Entrepreneurship, science and knowledge to overcome the gender gap“: 4 events organized with the aim of giving information and impetus to the complete implementation of the lines of intervention envisaged by the DGR n. 112 of 27.02.2018.
The intervention is financed by the POR Campania ESF 2014-2020, as part of Axis I which promotes information campaigns and territorial animation aimed at spreading knowledge of the tools available to facilitate women’s participation in the labor market.

All appointments have the aim of proposing moments of discussion that also include an enhancement of ‘positive actions’ (best cases at work, women’s experiences) and information (opportunities, tenders, intervention measures for overcoming the gender gap at work ), with testimonials from the world of work and knowledge, aimed at different targets of women looking for new training and professionalization paths, to artisans or third sector operators.

The appointment of 17 March, the second of the new cycle, is promoted in collaboration with the La Guardiense agricultural cooperative, founded on 8 March 1960 as a company-territory, which today has about a thousand farmers engaged in the directly-run cultivation of over 1,500 hectares of vineyards, boasting one of the most important sparkling wine plants in the South.

At the end of the planned interventions, an experiential laboratory and a guided tour of the cellar will follow to discover the processing phases. Participants will be accompanied on an immersive journey which, starting from the history of the cooperative winery, will lead them towards the knowledge of the Samnite territory, the production of wine and its valorisation.

As for each of the four appointments, the second workshop will also propose the vision of the documentary film “The excellent ones of Campania. 6 STORIES OF WOMEN” which testifies to the passion and tenacity in pursuing a professional goal by those who today are part of the excellence of the Campania region, representing female role-models in the fields of entrepreneurship, science, knowledge, in able to stimulate and support the action of other women, in training, study and work choices.

Antonio Marchiello, Councilors for Productive Activities, Labour, State Property and Heritage and Armida Filippelli for Professional Training will intervene on behalf of Regione Campania.
