First European Paper Recycling Award
The European Recovered Paper Council (ERPC) has launched the first annual European Paper Recycling Award. NGOs, educational institutes, local authorities and industry are encouraged to apply with details of an innovative project that enhances paper recycling all over Europe. By promoting these initiatives and rewarding them with an award the ERPC will be recognising their efforts and hoping to inspire others to adopt similar good practices.
To be eligible projects, initiatives or campaigns must fulfil one or more of the following criteria:
• Promote or encourage paper recycling
• Facilitate or improve paper recycling operations
• Raise awareness of recycling and how to recycle paper
• Improve the quality of recovered paper
An independent panel of experts from across Europe will judge the entries in each category. The panel includes representatives from the European Parliament, the European Commission as well as associations of regional authorities and NGOs.
European wide recognition of the winning candidate’s efforts will be accompanied by an original piece of paper artwork, which will be officially handed over to the winners in an award ceremony in Brussels on 28 November 2007 during the European Paper Week.
The European Paper Recycling Award 2007 is sponsored by SCA.
The deadline for entries is 31 August 2007.
