ANEC will host an online expert workshop on 9th September to gather input from members regarding best practices, key experiences, challenges, and opportunities when influencing standards particularly linked to the Ecodesign and Energy Labelling (ED/EL) framework.

The workshop will take place on 9th September online, from 3-5 PM Brussels time.

Aim: This event is an opportunity to gather learnings and complement our guidance for current and new experts when representing the consumer voice in standards. The input and discussions will help ANEC develop guidance for current Reps as well as to train future experts working on the ED/EL field.

What to expect: ANEC Representatives working on Ecodesign/Energy Labelling (ED/EL) will share their experience attending standardisation meetings in this field. We will then have a discussion with all attendees to reflect on ‘tips & tricks’ to strengthen the consumer voice in standardisation meetings.


Who is it for: This workshop is mostly aimed at ANEC Representatives to learn from ED/EL and discuss their experiences when it comes to representing ANEC at standardisation meetings. While mostly focused on Ecodesign & Sustainability, we are happy to extend the invitation to DOMAP & DIGITAL members, particularly ANEC Reps. It could be for instance quite relevant to those Reps working on product groups with a link to Ecodesign - traditionally energy related products, with the scope is now extending to almost all product categories, aiming for them to use less energy, last longer, be easily repaired, contain more recycled content or have a lower carbon and environmental footprint over its lifecycle.

Please complete this form for your registration by the 5th of September.

This workshop is part of our work within the EU-funded reaLIFEstandards project.
