The Projeto Leme Paranaguá has initiated a series of vocational training cycles designed to prepare young people and adults for the port sector in Paranaguá, Brazil.

The first cycle, funded by the China Merchants Foundation and supported by TCP (Terminal de Contêineres de Paranaguá), involved an investment exceeding R$ 500,000. This initial phase offered 105 apprenticeships in roles such as Port Warehouse Clerk, Gate Operational Assistant, and Port Operations Assistant, drawing nearly 700 applicants.

The second cycle expanded the program to residents of Ilha dos Valadares with support from the Paranaguá City Hall. This phase provides 105 participants, aged 16 and older, with technical instruction alongside training in socio-emotional competencies, including communication, teamwork, and crisis management.
