NWoW4Net-Zero project aims to position HR leaders as key actors in contributing to the ‘Planet' bottom line, by giving them concrete levers for action to drive the transition in their field of intervention: the new ways of working (NWoW).

Embarking on a transformative journey, the NWoW4Net-Zero project leverages the power of digital innovation to revitalize workplace dynamics, aligning them with the European Union's ambitions for carbon neutrality.This initiative, flourishing under the auspices of Erasmus+, spans from March 2022 to February 2024, uniting a consortium of experts from North Macedonia, Belgium, Estonia, and France. Focused on equipping human resources professionals across diverse sectors with sustainable practices and digital competencies, our project crafts pivotal training toolkits and curricula. These resources are designed to empower HR directors and managers within SMEs, public bodies, and non-profits, steering these key influencers towards implementing eco-conscious and efficiency-driven strategies in their organizations.
