SMALEI Digital Academy Talks: Monthly Webinars on Advancing Environmental Sustainability in Adult Education

25/10/2024

The SMALEI EU-funded project is launching the SMALEI Digital Academy Talks—a series of monthly webinars taking place from 07 November 2024 to February 2025. These events are designed to bring together adult learning and education (ALE) professionals to explore, discuss, and implement effective sustainability practices across institutions. This series aims to foster collaboration and innovation among ALE providers throughout Europe.

Each webinar will highlight key areas in environmental sustainability, focusing on a “whole institution” approach. From internal green skills development to fostering sustainable partnerships, the sessions offer actionable insights and real-world examples to empower organizations in reducing their ecological footprint.

The first session, “Environmental Sustainability of the Institution,” will be held on 7 November 2024, 12:00-13:00 CEST. This session focuses on how ALE institutions can integrate sustainable and circular practices into their daily operations. Register here.
