SINTRA – Achieving Sustainability through INTRApreneurship is a 24 months Erasmus+ project (KA2: Strategic Partnerships for adult education) designed to provide an integrated support, tailored to the needs of organisations for the development of intrapreneurship-related skills, competences and attitudes among both employees and employers for improving the organisations’ sustainability.

Sustainability in business generally refers to the effect the organization’s policies and practices have on the environment and the society. It is also well connected with the viability and competitiveness of the organization itself.
