Research and experiences play a central role in the project.

BerliNordik 2010

After “bright green fashion”, the successful project beginning together with Copenhagen in 2009, BerliNordik 2010 is held in Berlin and hosts its Nordic partners in the German capital. In a series of “bright green design” exhibitions 19 brilliant fashion and product designers from Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Norway, Sweden and Berlin present their work, showing a wide range of different approaches on the topic of sustainability. Their materialized ideas make it clear that there are many possible solutions for the design of the future. Yet, the journey has just begun.

Workshop N-Project 2011

The German Council for Sustainable Development (RNE) is the official advisory board of the German government concerning sustainable developement. It selected BerliNordik as one of the most remarkable projects in the field of sustainability in 2011.

A jury consisting of members of the RNE chose some of the best national projects and initiatives in the field of sustainability and will award them with the quality label Workshop N-Project 2011. BerliNordik was one of the first projects that was presented to the public as an outstanding example for sustainable acting during the Annual Conference of the RNE in Berlin on September 27th, 2010.
