EU ECO- TANDEM programme is hosting the event during the EU GREEN WEEK!

EU ECO-TANDEM PROGRAMME | May 26, 2021

What is the EU Green Week? This European event will be dedicated to the ‘zero pollution ambition’. It’s an opportunity to engage with all stakeholders and interested citizens on how we can work together to make the ambition for a zero pollution and toxic-free environment a reality. The EU ECO-TANDEM programme couldn’t miss this opportunity and decided to join this amazing initiative!

Since our programme, co-funded by the European Union, was created to boost sustainable tourism development and increase the capacity building of traditional tourism SMEs through transnational cooperation and knowledge/tech transfer it’s suting just perfectly the GREEN WEEK scope! Each tourism SME participating can embrace the opportunity of solving the existing sustainability challenges, creating the possible driver of innovation and growth not only for the tourism sector but also for the whole economy! 

Our project is structured around three pillars:

  1. The EU ECO-TANDEM Academy: Transnational education and training programmes on sustainable tourism management, circular economy, industry-specific skills improvement around standards for sustainability in travel and tourism.
  2. The Biz Programme: A cross-border programme to identify key challenges in the tourism value chain with specific regard to sustainability, matching SMEs and innovators to tackle ECO-TANDEM challenges. 
  3. The Network Creation: Based on transnational cooperation, the programme will build powerful connections in the tourism industry for boosting sustainable innovations.

EU ECO-TANDEM is proud to be an official partner of the EU GREEN WEEK 2021. The programme partners will present the opportunities that sustainable development represents for SMEs and the challenges for the tourism sector. They will present the programs of the EU ECO-TANDEM Academy as well as the reasons why sustainable development is an excellent engine for recovery and how innovation can support the transition to a green tourism.
