What is ECOmaps about?

ECOmaps is a European web mapping service and database, displaying the most sustainable, ecological and healthiest options in a certain location, area or city. This information includes services, restaurants, organic and bio shops, fair trade brands, local markets, organizations and other entities that promote respect and care for nature and for society.

The ECOmaps was primarily conceived to help people find green and eco-friendly places of their surroundings, which would be very useful not only for travelers, but also for citizens that want to get to know better their cities from a green and sustainable perspective. Furthermore, the platform also intends to provide a strong educational component featuring infographics, articles, videos and other forms of information, to attract new targets as well as to encourage and educate people who are usually out of the environmental and social scope.

 

Selection process:

 Please fill the application form until the 25th of October 23:59 CET.

We will inform all candidates about the selection results by e-mail by the 26th of October.
