From Data to Action: Empowering Policies for Sustainable Choices

Event Overview

The conference titled From Data to Action: Empowering Policies for Sustainable Choices will be held on May 13, 2025, from 09:30 to 17:00 at the BIP Meeting Centre in Brussels, Belgium. This event marks the culmination of the PSLifestyle project, which has been instrumental in promoting sustainable lifestyle choices across Europe.

The PSLifestyle project has engaged citizens in eight countries—Estonia, Finland, Germany, Greece, Italy, Portugal, Slovenia, and Turkey—collecting valuable data to inform policy development. The Lifestyle Test, a digital tool created through this initiative, has been utilized by over 440,000 users, helping individuals measure and reduce their carbon footprints while providing policymakers with critical insights for effective governance.

Conference Highlights

The event will feature a series of plenary sessions and workshops aimed at fostering dialogue among key stakeholders, including policymakers, researchers, and industry leaders. Participants will discuss the implications of sustainable behaviors for policy and practice, and explore how to scale the insights gained from the PSLifestyle project across Europe.
