EWWR logo EN D BD 200pxThe European Week for Waste Reduction (EWWR) is the biggest Europe-wide initiative promoting the implementation of awareness-raising actions about sustainable resource and waste management during a single week. It encourages a wide range of audiences (public authorities, private companies, schools, civil society as well as citizens themselves) to get involved.

Since 1 July 2017, the EWWR is coordinated by the EWWR Steering Committee. The project was originally launched in 2009 under the European Commission’s LIFE+ programme, which co-financed the project until mid-2017.

Highlights

The 14th edition of the EWWR closed with the annual Awards Ceremony, held in Dublin on 1 June. The jury announced one winner per category (public administration, business/industry, NGO/association, educational establishment, citizens and the European Special Prize) revealing 6 outstanding actions promoting waste prevention in Europe. Finally, the audience participated in a live voting to select an additional inspiring action as ‘The best action for the EWWR audience’. The EWWR is already getting ready for this 15th edition that will focus on Packaging, from 18 to 26 November 2023.

Don’t hesitate and take part in the EWWR!
