Is there any way to export/convert the data in Numbers into a format

Well, the error says that you're trying to load a string,
"project_name", into an integer column.

Is there a header row in the CSV file? - if so, delete it and try again.

If it is not a header row issue then it could be the columns in the CSV file do not match the columns in the table and that data is not matching what the table column expects. You can specify a column list in the COPY.
