BALANCE – Bringing Sustainability and Environmental Action Toghther for Better Future

The BALANCE project addresses a key priority of the EU related to environmental and climate goals. According to the Green Deal presented by the European Commission in December 2019, Europe should become a climate-neutral continent by 2050. According to the Green Action Plan small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) have an essential role in achieving a greener economy as there are currently 25 million SMEs operating within the EU market. In addition, SMEs are the ones that struggle most to challenges – as in the past financial crisis – since change management is challenged by the lack of financial or human resources, sustainability and knowledge.
