The city of Solsona and the Solsonès region unveiled the Campus Solsona project this Thursday, aiming to transform the municipality into a national benchmark for Vocational Training (FP).

Led by the Campus Solsona Foundation, the initiative brings together local authorities and educational centers like the Forest Science and Technology Centre of Catalonia (CTFC). The goal is to centralize the educational offer to attract talent and boost regional economic growth.
A cornerstone of the project is the rehabilitation of the old Castellvell school residence. Known as the House of Talent, it will serve as a hostel and coworking space for students and researchers, addressing the local lack of student accommodation.

"We need the hostel so that people coming for this training know where to sleep."
