EU Green Week
It’s a great time to be thinking of saving energy, with EU Green Week taking place soon (May 29th-June 2nd).
The theme of EU Green Week is 'Green jobs for a greener future' and the focus will be on how EU environmental policies are creating green jobs and contributing to economic, sustainable and socially responsible growth in the EU. It will also highlight the demand for new types of green skills in many professional sectors. People around Europe will be discussing how a move to sustainable business models creates green jobs and a demand for green skills.
Are you organising an event on this theme in May or June?
