A workshop on Sustainable consumption in Viet Nam – small actions, great changes took place in Ha Noi on Tuesday, focusing on measures to promote sustainable consumption practices across the country.
The event was part of the GetGreen Viet Nam project, funded by the European Union and implemented by the Dutch Delft University of Technology, the Viet Nam Cleaner Production Centre and the Asian Institute of Technology in Viet Nam.
Ambassador-Head of the Delegation of the European Union to Viet Nam Franz Jessen said the project aimed to change consumption practices in Asia and targeted consumers and relevant non-governmental organisations.
GetGreen project helps generate higher demand for sustainable products, thus enhancing small- and medium-d enterprises' supply capacity, Jessen said.
Since October 2014, the project has trained more than 1,000 people to inspire consumers to change their habits and lead an environment-friendly lifestyle.
