🩷 💚 WomenESEPack wraps its pilot phase 109 women trained across Europe

We're proud to share the results of WomenESEPack, an Erasmus+ co-funded project under which we developed a free sustainability course for women entrepreneurs

🟢 The project set out to solve a clear problem: women entrepreneurs across Europe face real barriers to sustainability education, from time constraints to content that doesn't reflect their business realities. WomenESEPack was built to close that gap.

The results from our Latvia and Italy pilots:
⚪ 109 women completed the free e-learning course
⚪39 workshop participants certified
⚪18 Action Plans and Flourishing Business Canvases delivered

The programme pairs a free, multilingual Udemy course (English, Latvian, German, Italian) covering the circular economy, social impact, and environmental sustainability with hands-on 2-hour workshops using the Flourishing Business Canvas and Future Radars tools.

The complete toolkit, - course, facilitation guide, factsheet, and final booklet - is built for replication. Any Business Support Organisation in Europe can adopt or localise it for their own community.

🩷 💚 On 22 May, our team traveled to Riga, Latvia, for the WomenESEPack - marking the close of an Erasmus+ journey we are truly proud of.

At the event, we had the privilege of presenting the project's main results to partners, trainers, and European stakeholders: a piloted training programme, multilingual learning materials, and practical frameworks covering circular economy, responsible supply chains, ethical marketing, sustainable finance, and inclusive governance.

🙌 A huge shoutout to our dear team members Camille, Franci, and Zsuzsa who put enormous work into developing and refining the training materials We also want to thank our partners - Latvijas Tirdzniecības un rūpniecības kamera and Chamber of commerce of Bolzano/Bozen — for co-developing this project with us. It has been a genuine collaboration across three countries, and that shows in the results.

Interested in how sustainability and entrepreneurship can go hand in hand? The WomenESEPack training is freely available on Udemy - open to any woman entrepreneur ready to take confident steps toward a greener, more responsible business.

Happy (belated) World Environment Day! 🌍

🙌 We are looking back at the great few days at the Zöld OT (Green Civil National Assembly) 2026 in Szentendre. Our team joined conversations on citizen science, public involvement, sustainable consumption, Hungary’s new climate strategy, and water management challenges - issues that require lots of systems thinking, cooperation, and tools to unpack complexity.

Along the Danube riverfront in Szentendre, we also hosted a booth where visitors could explore our circular economy games, XR app, and toolkits from CIRCLE and EDU.CIRCULAR, and the WomanESEPack e-learning course for female entrepreneurs.

🟩 We were glad to contribute as members of the European Climate Pact, bringing educational and participatory methods into dialogue with civil organizations, local communities, and sustainability practitioners.

World Environment Day is a reminder that climate action depends not only on policy and technology, but also on learning, collaboration, and shared civic capacity.

💚 Step by step, system by system - with young people and green communities, building a more sustainable future!

⭕ 1 in 7 young people aged 10–19 is living with a mental health condition right now

But here's what the research also tells us: Active young people are 20–30% less likely to experience depressive symptoms. The more structured and regular the movement, the stronger the effect - on mood, on anxiety, on resilience.

🟢 Sport isn't just a hobby. For many young people, it's the space where confidence grows, self-esteem builds, mood lifts, and friendships form.
This Mental Health Awareness Week, the question isn't whether sport matters for mental health. The evidence is clear.

The real question is: how do we build ecosystems where young people actually have access to it❓

That's exactly what Sports and Health Innovation Accelerator (SHIA project) is built for - bridging universities, innovation hubs, and industry to create environments where sport- and health-tech solutions can emerge and grow.

Step by step. System by system. Healthier ecosystems for healthier and happier generations 🏃
