Do you want to know more about GIMED? The Mediterranean-based project has launched its second newsletter with the aim of summing up the main milestones that have taken place for the past months. The newsletter, launched on the 28th of June, gathers the main articles published on the website, the activities from GIMED and stories of entrepreneurs that are receiving support. 

On top of that, we also talk about The Switchers.org platform, a free-to-use tool that entrepreneurs are using to receive green business support. Besides, we wanted to highlight the signature of the protocol between Alexandria Business Association (the Egyptian partner) with the Egyptian Government.  

Being short, concise, reader-friendly and original, GIMED’s newsletter outlines some case-studies in different countries such as Italy, Palestine or Lebanon.  

• Electric bicycles as a hassle-free solution for commuting in Beirut (Lebanon) 

• SHABAP, a start-up that achieves energy and water efficiency in Palestine buildings (Palestine) 

• Boniviri, a start-up bringing high quality food to the table (Italy) 

• Talia, an organic farm that produces vegetables using renewable energy (Palestine) 

• Waste reduction as a game, a green solution that is nailing it in Lebanon (Lebanon) 

• Fishing nets transformed into line of ethical products in the fashion sector (Italy) 

In the newsletter we also introduce the WeMed Award, a new Mediterranean award for green entrepreneurs and public authorities organised by the Regional Activity Center for Sustainable Consumption and Production (SCP/RAC), GIMED’s Lead Beneficiary.
