The event follows the publication of the revised MSCA Green Charter, which includes updated guidance and practical recommendations to address the environmental footprint of research practices – including in digital settings, and will focus on making AI more sustainable. The development and adoption of green digital infrastructure, AI tools and AI practices are essential to

• ensure that the increased uptake of AI remains sustainable
• allow Europe to maintain its competitiveness while also realising its sustainability goals.

Speakers will present the knowledge and tools developed in EU-funded projects, which will serve as a basis for discussion and exchange among the panelists and with the audience.

Deadline to register: 3 December 2025, 12.00 CET. All information related to this event including the registration form can be found in the announcement on the MSCA website.
