As part of the launch of its new webinar mini-series Bright Findings, EU GREEN invited its researchers to reflect on a simple question: what gives them hope in research today? The first webinar, open to all, will take place on 25 June and will focus on telework, well-being and performance.
Through this series, EU GREEN aims to foster an optimistic conversation around contemporary research by highlighting projects that bring hope and positive perspectives. Designed as a space for dialogue and knowledge sharing, this initiative showcases how scientific curiosity, creativity and innovation can help address today’s major societal challenges in an accessible and inspiring format.

Abstract: How can telework become a driver of both well-being and sustainable performance?
