Great news from the environmental front! We are very proud to announce that Deinde participated in an exceptional international meeting in Rome with our Italian partner, Prometeo. It was an extraordinary event that took place on May 13-14, 2023, as part of the GreenMinds project.
The meeting was dedicated to discussions and the development of concrete actions aimed at promoting and supporting sustainable development initiatives, especially in the field of Vocational Education and Training (VET). During the meeting, we had the opportunity to showcase our achievements so far. We proudly presented the implemented activities that have contributed to the promotion of environmental protection and the propagation of ecological awareness. Our research on CSR (Corporate Social Responsibility) ecological practices in VET institutions and small and medium-sized enterprises generated significant interest among the meeting participants.
Not only were we able to share our successes, but we also discussed planned actions that we intend to carry out within the GreenMinds project. One of our main goals is to create an educational handbook. Additionally, during the meeting, we discussed the development of an online platform that will serve as a tool for exchanging information, ideas, and best practices regarding CSR ecological practices. We want this platform to become a place where experts, teachers, and individuals from the VET sector can come together, collaborate, and inspire each other, creating a strong educational community.
We are extremely excited about what the future holds for the GreenMinds project. We believe that our joint efforts with Prometeo will make a significant contribution to protecting our planet and creating a more sustainable future in the VET sector and businesses. The GreenMinds project is not just our initiative; it is also a force of collective action that inspires others to take concrete steps for the environment.
Thanks to this meeting in Rome, our international teams had the opportunity to establish deeper collaboration, share knowledge and experiences, and inspire one another. This was not only important for our company but also for our community. We firmly believe that only through partnership and collaboration can we achieve real change and accelerate the process of creating a sustainable future for all of us.
We believe that our company, Deinde, and partner Prometeo have the power, knowledge, and determination to drive change and be pioneers in the field of sustainable development. Through our joint actions and the GreenMinds project, we are becoming active participants in the global fight for the future of our planet.

First Transnational Meeting of the GreenMinds project
On July 20-23, 2022, the first transnational meeting of the GreenMinds project took place in Lublin (Poland). Project partners Deinde and Prometeo met to discuss key issues related to dissemination, communication and evaluation. During the meeting, we talked about the importance of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) in the field of ecological activities. We have planned the course of preliminary research work, the principles of creating an exchange network “Green Social Network” in the project. We have made arrangements for work on the development of a CSR training program for VET sector institutions and we have created templates of documents on which we will work.
In their free time, Poles and Italians visited Lublin together while being in the Lublin Underground Route, watching the panorama of Lublin from the CSK terraces, eating dinner together and being inspired by Tamara Łempicka’s exhibition at the Lublin Castle. On the last day, a few hours before the departure of the Italian partners, a short meeting was held at the headquarters of the Deinde office and in a relaxed atmosphere, all plans and arrangements were summarized in unison. At the end, the project coordinators said goodbye to Prometo, thanking for their commitment and coming. It was 3 days full of impressions.
