Second EUROLAB-UNIDO webinar: "What does a country need to become more sustainable?"

The second EUROLAB-UNIDO webinar: "What does a country need to become more sustainable?" took place online on 29 October.

Speakers Dorina Nati, Annalisa Romiti, Marco Della Giovampaola, and Marija Cundeva-Blajer discussed the tools needed for the countries targeted in the UNIDO Program to become more sustainable. Experts shared best practices, examples, and regulatory updates from Europe to enable sustainable lab infrastructure development. In addition, EUROLAB Secretary General Laura Martin provided insights on the global regulatory trends and how they impact sustainability.

This seminar is part of EUROLAB's partnership with UNIDO. The two organisations will host a series of seminars under the UNIDO Global Quality and Standards Programme (GQSP). This joint initiative between UNIDO and Switzerland's State Secretariat for Economic Affairs (SECO) seeks to boost national quality infrastructure systems and standards compliance to support sustainable trade, inclusive growth, and SME market access. The GQSP helps industries to become more competitive through strengthened compliance capacity with quality and standards, facilitating market access for SMEs and enhancing their integration into value chains.
