With the aim of strengthening the creation of personal income and to foster the empowerment of vulnerable groups, such as people with disabilities and at-risk women, ME IMPORTAS is developing a Job Creation Programme in El Estor, which has the following goals:

- To improve their professional skills through professional training.
- To create self-employment and cooperative work opportunities.
- To foster their access to the regular labour market.

- Tailoring School for vulnerable women.
- Cooking School for vulnerable women.
- Bakery School for people with disabilities.
