ECOPATH is an Erasmus+ project offering free, interactive training and resources to help small and medium-sized businesses understand and apply circular economy principles and ESG reporting.
The training is delivered through a free, interactive learning tool designed to make sustainability reporting practical, engaging and accessible.
Rather than relying on traditional, passive lectures, ECOPATH takes learners on a gamified learning journey. Through interactive choices, realistic scenarios and step-by-step challenges, participants explore the kinds of sustainability decisions businesses face every day — including navigating real-world dilemmas through the story of a fictional company.
