The composting area is situated in an easily accessible place and it is a frequent promenade area from Vila-seca city.  
The training infrastructure is constructed and will be ready to receive the NEETs and women at risk of social exclusion risk and the selected trainers before the end of the 2021 through SIRCLES project which will contribute to the creation of green jobs by involving the most vulnerable sectors of the population and supporting environmental sustainability.

The trainings will develop the capacities of NEET youth and women in business development, separation, collection, compositing, and agriculture processes.
