Project Zero Waste topics focus on changes in the education and business process by selecting environmentally sustainable work models.

What are the goals and outcomes of the project?
The main objective of the project is to incorporate the Zero Waste standards in the vocational education and HoReCa sectors through the use of digital tools., Tools for the implementation of the new learning and business models in the work process will be developed through the project activities:  Zero Waste digital educational tools, Zero Waste in HoReCa curriculum and Zero Waste evaluation tool.
