On Wednesday, the Beterri-Buruntza network of transformative economy organized a training session in which representatives of the companies of the region will talk about the environment and reflect on the importance of biodiversity care in the sustainability of their activities.

Under the title "The Environment as Part of Business Sustainability", Beterri Saretuze will be at the Professional School in Usurbil from 11:00 a.m. and will be led by Aiala Zubieta, from the consulting cooperative Isladak. "It is often thought that the negative impact on the environment is produced by large companies in the world, but both large and small, industrial and services, can generate collective activity in the environment."

As explained to ARGIA, the members of this cooperative will try to "concretize the contribution of ecosystems as a company and as a person", and each company will carry out a domestic work to "take some ideas and see what it can do in its organization". ARGIA will shortly publish a more detailed interview with Zubieta on this subject.

Visit to PV installations

To end the session on Wednesday morning, Beterri Saretuze organized a guided tour to learn about the photovoltaic installation of the Professional School of Usurbil. According to Azadu, Usurbil's is one of the few that shows all the structures and "we can see everything".

This is the third and final training session organised this year by Beterri Saretuz. Previously, sessions have been held in Andoain and Hernani to analyze the development of listening methodology and the development of equality in companies. Last week, the 2nd meeting of women in transformative projects of the region. The forum was held.
