Universities Unite for Green Transition in Higher Education

The third meeting of the U-GREEN project, focused on promoting green transition and sustainable practices in education, recently convened at Warsaw University of Life Sciences in Poland. Representing AUI was Johanna Gisladottir. This initiative is part of the Erasmus+ strategic partnership, involving universities across Europe. One significant achievement has been the creation of standards and a "Green Label" certification for higher education institutions that are progressing toward green transformation. During the meeting, participants designed a training program and teaching materials to guide and bestow the "Green Label". AUI, having completed the Environment Agency's Green Steps Program in Iceland, has contributed invaluable insights to the partnership.
