The annual European Week for Waste Reduction (EWWR) brings together schools, public administrations, companies, NGOs and citizens from across Europe who are united by the same goal: promoting awareness-raising activities on sustainable resource and waste management.   

This year's European Week for Waste Reduction is taking place from 18th to 26th November 2023. The theme for this year is Packaging! 

You can still choose to focus your action on another topic as long as your action prevents waste through reducing, reusing, or recycling. However, if you choose to follow this year’s theme, you will also be eligible to participate in the Innovative Award Category.    We are always looking for original ideas with broader educational outreach and a lasting impact. You can look for inspiration in this idea hub!

Prizes of €1000 to be won for each of the 7 categories.

Registration open in September.  The 2023 Rules of Participation will be available soon. 


If you participated in last year’s edition on Circular and Sustainable Textiles, we invite you to get your personalised digital certificate from the EWWR Secretariat.

Follow us on Facebook for the latest updates. 


About the Awards  

 In the coming months, WasteServ will be awarding the best actions from the 2022 edition which had the theme of ‘Circular and Sustainable Textiles’.   

Through actions and projects aimed at reducing, reusing, and recycling waste, participants get to showcase their initiatives to raise awareness. This year, we received actions from 63 participants. Finalists are selected by a panel of independent experts, and the winners are announced during the Malta Waste Reduction Awards, with a prize of €1,000 awarded per category. Each winning action will receive funding to help participants in their efforts at reducing waste. The winners also get to represent Malta in the European Waste Reduction Awards, which bring together the best participants in the field from all over Europe.     

We look forward to discovering the winners during the Malta Waste Reduction Awards!
