Another major project is contacted by EUGENE and funded by EU, the “Couriers Go Green”
The prime motivation of the project “Couriers Go Green” is to create a framework that Courier and transportation companies could adopt and utilize it as a valuable asset through which they will be able to build a green culture across all business operations with an aim to decrease their carbon footprint and their overall environmental impact.
In order for this ambitious goal to be achievable, a structured, well-defined and tailored to the specific needs of the target group educational package should be developed to apply not only to decision-makers but also to courier employees, drivers and workers.
Couriers Go Green project will :
- help courier companies assess their carbon footprint and the overall impact on the environment caused by their activities
- Develop a methodology to support the target group in decreasing emissions and in parallel increasing efficiency
- Provide the Courier companies with all the required tools and methods to draw up a Green Strategy for optimising and redesiging their operations
- Equip individuals (courier employees) with green certifiable skills and environmental awareness for playing a crucial role in Couriers’ green shift
- Provide Training & Awareness to Courier and Postal Operator personnel in an open, accessible, interactive, inclusive and innovative way with an aim to engage them for turning green initiatives into reality
EUGENE will develop digital training content for environmental-related issues.
The Project consortium consists of 7 partners from 5 EU countries (Greece, Cyprus, Belgium, Romania and Hungary)
