Join us for this year’s European Week for Waste Reduction which will take place from 16th to 24th November 2024. This initiative brings together schools, public administrations, companies, NGOs, and passionate citizens from all across Europe who are united by the same goal: promoting awareness-raising activities on sustainable resources and waste management.
The theme for this year is Food Waste!
As you plan your action, you can still choose to focus on another topic as long as your action aligns with the principles of reducing, reusing, or recycling. However, if you decide to go with this year’s theme, you will have the opportunity to participate in the Innovative Award Category.
Show us your original ideas with broad educational outreach and a lasting impact, and you could be one step closer to winning a prize of €1,000 in one of the seven categories. This webpage will give you a lot of ideas and inspiration.
Registration is now closed!
Be a Winner! Cash prizes to be won!
Winners will receive a prize valued at €1,000.
In the case of the Waste Reduction Award for best practices in Educational Establishments, the top three actions will be rewarded. This initiative aims to foster sustainable habits and values among students, urging them to become agents of positive change and laying a strong foundation for lifelong environmental stewardship. The winners in this category will be granted prizes ranging from €1,000 to €3,000.
