“EIB Green Staff is an independent non-profit-making initiative, established by staff, unified by the common aspiration to support the international fight against climate change, decline of biodiversity and other impacts on the environment of our unique, diverse and beautiful planet.”
(Preamble of EIB Green Staff Statutes)
Within its purpose, the initiative
- hosts awareness raising events, and
organises workshops, conferences, and actions,
- makes assessments and conducts research,
- contributes to the development and implementation of practices and actions at the EIB Group, and proposes actions and initiatives,
- conducts enquiries and surveys among its members, and
- acts as a forum for its members to debate, share and exchange ideas and best practices on how to include sustainability in our personal and professional environment. IMPORTANT NOTE: EIB Green Staff is not an official body of the European Investment Bank but a private initiative of its employees.
