Abstract :
This paper summarizes the work done in the GÉANT Green Team, a European collaboration between National Research and Education Networks to stimulate (environmental) sustainability in these organizations. We show some of the tools that have been developed in this team, which are applied to train NRENs new to the topic, such as the Armenian NREN. Through this work we hope to show the merit of how likewise organizations can collaborate and inspire other organizations to do the same.
