Presentations at industry events, training and campaigns, and educational workshops - although the end of the year is approaching and the atmosphere of the holidays is already in the air, we are still working intensively at Interzero. We kindly invite you to read the summary of November in the Interzero Group in Poland, in which we will briefly present the most important events of the past month.<\/p>\n<\/div>

Interzero's Environmental Sustainability Dashboard with international GRI Assurance certification<\/strong><\/h2>\n

\n<\/div>

<\/div><\/div>

Interzero's Environmental Sustainability Dashboard<\/a> is now licensed by the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI)!<\/strong> This is another step for us to make ESG reporting easy and accessible for every company. At the same time, we want our tool to be reliable. Through the GRI Licensing Software & Tools Program, GRI ensures that our Environmental Sustainability Dashboard accurately and efficiently incorporates GRI standards, based on best practices. Key benefits of our programme include accurate sustainability reporting, helping to meet legal requirements, and attracting stakeholders - through reliable and transparent reporting. We are almost certain that even companies that will not be subject to ESG reporting will have to keep records if they want to cooperate with larger entities.<\/p>\n<\/div>

Business and carbon neutrality - Interzero in external debates <\/strong><\/h2>\n

\n<\/div>

<\/div><\/div>

This month, Interzero had the pleasure of being a guest at the ITTF Warsaw international trade fair,<\/strong> one of the largest events in the tourism industry, where partners involved in the development and promotion of this sector meet. Our representative, Interzero Managing Director Przemys\u0142aw Kuna took part in the panel entitled \"The impact of supplier selection on the carbon neutrality of business travel. How does sustainable development policy affect business travel management\". Przemys\u0142aw postulated not to cross out industry entities that have not yet taken an interest in ESG. The speakers talked not only about business travel, but also about fleet electrification and infrastructure in Poland. <\/p>\n

In addition, Przemyslaw also took part in the Rzeczpospolita<\/em> debate: \"How to reconcile fire with water, or the needs of business and cities towards ROP during the mobilisation of work on the act\".<\/strong> , which took place in the editorial office of the daily as part of the \"Fight for climate\" series. Our expert took a specific position - as Interzero, we support a free-market and transparent model of extended producer responsibility. Everyone wants to know what they are paying for and why so much. We do not want entrepreneurs to become just an object on which further financial obligations can be imposed. We encourage you to read the article summarising the debate here<\/a> .<\/p>\n<\/div>

On-site training - WIO\u015a inspection is no longer scary!<\/strong><\/h2>\n

\n<\/div>

<\/div><\/div>

At the end of November, \u0141ukasz Pachucki conducted the second in-person training at our headquarters in \u0141\u00f3d\u017a, this time under the slogan 'Environmental Protection Inspection Control in an Enterprise'. We are very happy that we managed to implement this project in smaller groups. The exchange of knowledge, experience and the opportunity to ask any questions to an expert allows for an in-depth study of the subject. The companies whose employees came to the training already know every step of the inspection, and thanks to the Q&A session and the possibility of consulting our expert after the training, they have prepared guidelines and plans to ensure that the inspection of the Environmental Protection Inspectorate goes smoothly. We would like to thank the instructor for the substantive workshop and all participants for their trust - we hope to see you at the next in-person training!<\/p>\n<\/div>

At the intersection of culture and sustainable development - workshops and campaigns<\/strong><\/h2>\n

\n<\/div>

<\/div><\/div>

On the initiative of the Interzero Ecological Education Team, in cooperation with the B\u0119c Zmiana Foundation, on 23 November, the \"Waste Architecture\" workshop was held in one of Warsaw's theatres<\/strong> . The meeting focused on, among other things, new legal regulations concerning waste. They are inextricably linked to the creation of appropriate urban, residential and communication space. Through the prism of their own experiences from many industries, participants created ideas for new solutions that could, for example, help consumers to actively participate in the deposit system. Architects Micha\u0142 Sikorski and Petro Vladimirov, as well as artist Zofia Strumi\u0142\u0142o-Sukiennik, were invited to the workshop. The choice was not accidental - each of the presenters tackles the subject of waste in a different way. The workshops were part of the \"Happiness Research Laboratory. Life after Comfort-Century', an artistic and research project. <\/p>\n

On November 29, the Krakow Museum of Photography hosted the debate \"Look! Does it work?\", during which we focused on the topic of social campaigns about waste.<\/strong> It was a continuation of Interzero's cooperation with this cultural institution. The pretext for the conversation was Interzero's research \"Between plus and minus\" and \"Getting into trouble\", which indicate that young adults are less involved in environmental issues. The speakers included: Alicja Waszkiewicz-Raviv, who deals with visual communication and campaign effectiveness, Dominika Lenkowska-Piechocka, founder of the agency Who Will Save The Planet, and Edyta Mantorska - head of the Ecological Education Team at Interzero. The debate was preceded by a workshop for young people. <\/p>\n

We ended the month with a partnership with BWA Wroc\u0142aw on the \"Limited Exhibition\" project.<\/strong> At Plac Ko\u015bciuszki 9-10 in the capital of Lower Silesia, seven sculptures by Kasia Fudakowski will be on display until February 16. One of the main themes of the exhibition is the topic of limited resources in the context of production; the artist was inspired to create the exhibition by considering how \"culture and art are inextricably linked to the energy resources available on Earth and the structures of power that dispose of these resources\". The artist gave control over the exhibition to the audience while limiting the energy that powers it. The question is therefore whether every visitor will be able to see the exhibition in the same form. The Interzero Ecological Education Team, in cooperation with the institution, prepared a December educational programme that fully addresses the topic of electronic waste.<\/p>\n<\/div>

Body, mind and ecology - or how to recharge your batteries with Interzero<\/strong><\/h3>\n

\n<\/div>

<\/div><\/div>

November ended the social campaign \"Charge Your Batteries\" that had been ongoing since September as part of the Eko Bez Kant\u00f3w project under the substantive patronage of the Ma\u0142gosia Braunek Foundation, Be and in cooperation with the Mindy application. During the project, a series of free webinars took place, where participants had the opportunity to meet online with independent experts. We talked about ecopsychology, the benefits of forest bathing, somatic practices that relieve stress and a healthy diet for the body and the planet. In addition, participants of the campaign could gain premium access to the Mindy application by publishing photos on their social media in which they get rid of batteries with the hashtag #chargeyourbatteries.<\/p>\n<\/div>

\"\"<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/a><\/div><\/div>

November was a month full of educational, as well as socio-cultural events. We would like to thank all Interzero employees involved in the above-mentioned activities, as well as partners for inviting us to cooperate - joint intersectional workshops and debates are something that always brings people closer and provides more opportunities for development and broader education of society about the essence of sustainable development.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
