About ERSCP & EMSU

The European Roundtable on Sustainable Consumption and Production is a non-profit forum that provides a platform to stimulate, develop and disseminate new initiatives aimed at fostering the implementation of concepts involving sustainable consumption and production and approaches within local and regional sustainable development initiatives.

Environmental Management for Sustainable Universities has evolved into a series of international conferences that explore the role of universities in creating new knowledge and attitudes to meet today’s environmental challenges. EMSU promotes a two way exchange of knowledge between universities and society.
