PSLifestyle (Co-Creating a Positive and Sustainable Lifestyle Test with and for European Residents), a Horizon 2020 project, aimed to close the gap between climate awareness and individual action. It focused on providing people with tools to measure and reduce their carbon footprint while offering policymakers valuable data to inform impactful policies.

After four years, the project is coming to a close. It has engaged people across eight European countries - Estonia, Finland, Germany, Greece, Italy, Portugal, Slovenia and Turkey - and co-created the Lifestyle Test, a digital tool that supports individual behaviour change and generates big data insights to guide policy development.

The Lifestyle Test helps people find out about the environmental impact of their day-to-day activities and inspires them to think about their current habits and how they could be changed through smart, everyday actions, including waste reduction, and reuse and repair.

PSLifestyle is now organising its final event to reflect on the project’s achievements and explore how the Lifestyle Test can continue to advance Europe’s sustainability goals. The event will feature a high-level EU workshop that aims to foster a targeted dialogue between key actors (policymakers, researchers, industries and civil society) on sustainable behaviour, their implications for policy and practice and scaling PSLifestyle insights and tools in Europe.

This event will take place at 09:30-17:00 CEST on 13 May at BIP Meeting Centre, rue Royale 2-4, 1000 Brussels. It will be in English and in person.
