About LEARN
The project ‘Logistics Emissions Accounting and Reduction Network’ (LEARN) empowers business to reduce the carbon footprint across their global logistics supply chain through improved emissions accounting.
This workshop aims to introduce the LEARN project, partners and activities, collect feedback from stakeholders and explore how we can work together to maximize business uptake of carbon accounting and reduction. It will cover:
- Introduction to the LEARN project and its objectives
- What support companies need to measure, report and verify (MRV) emissions and how a label can recognize good performance
- The practical applicability of emissions MRV and a label in complex multi-modal logistics settings
- The importance of supportive policy and research
- How to develop and involve a LEARN multi-stakeholder network to maximize business uptake of carbon accounting and reduction
The LEARN international workshop is organised in cooperation with the Europe Workshop on Green Freight Programs on 6 and 7 April in Brussels. This event brings together governments, industry and civil society to explore how to expand green freight programs across Europe and promote collaboration between them.
