An interesting workshop organized by the European GLAMURS project (Green Lifestyles, Alternative Models and Upscaling Regional Sustainability) will demonstrate the latest findings from GLAMURS, and seek feedback on policy recommendations for the last phase of the project.

GLAMURS aims to explore transitions to more sustainable lifestyles and greener economies in Europe. Involving a team of world-leading psychologists, economists, transition researchers and modellers from Spain, the UK, Norway, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, Romania and Austria, GLAMURS is examining how existing sustainable lifestyle initiatives can be scaled up.
