Green economy and sustainable development – projects

“Green dossier” provides projects on sustainable development starting from 2000. Just before The worldwide summit on sustainable development (Johannesburg, 2002), “Green dossier” created the cycle of 5 short films (UA version) that were shown during the Summit as well as on Ukrainian TV.
In 2008 “Green dossier” joined international platform considering sustainable consumption and production (coordinated by the Institute for Sustainable Consumption and Production, Vupertal, Germany) that unites non-governmental organizations of many countries.
