The second day of the Third Training Program of the Erasmus+ project GreenCamUz – “Green Campus Initiative: Integrating Sustainability into Higher Education in Uzbekistan” took place on 10 November 2026 at the Graduate School of Business and Entrepreneurship under the Cabinet of Ministers of the Republic of Uzbekistan (GSBE) in Tashkent. Day 2 focused on applying sustainability principles to project management, engineering and campus infrastructure, with experts from Vilnius Gediminas Technical University (VILNIUS TECH), Lithuania, leading the sessions.
Green Project Management I: life cycle thinking in engineering
Prof. Dr. Vytautas Bučinskas (Vilnius Gediminas Technical University) opened the day with the first Green Project Management session. He presented the Product Life Cycle Management course with a focus on automation and machines, and introduced Life Cycle Oriented Engineering: Methods and Tools.
Life cycle thinking means considering a product’s environmental impact at every stage: design, production, use and end of life. The session showed how this approach can be built into engineering education and into the planning of sustainable projects.
Green Project Management II: automation and robotics for sustainable industry
In the second session, Assoc. Prof. Dr. Andrius Dzedzickis (Vilnius Gediminas Technical University) spoke on the role of industrial automation and robotics in sustainable industry. The session looked at how modern technologies can help industry use resources more efficiently, reduce waste and lower its environmental footprint. It also discussed what this means for preparing future engineers and managers.
Green Campus House
After lunch, participants moved on to the Green Campus House sessions, led in turn by Prof. Dr. Vytautas Bučinskas and Assoc. Prof. Dr. Andrius Dzedzickis. These sessions looked at the green campus concept in practice: how university buildings and infrastructure can be designed and managed with sustainability in mind. They linked directly to the pilot projects that the six Uzbek partner universities presented on Day 1.
Gala dinner
The day ended with a gala dinner for all participants, which gave partners from Türkiye, Poland, Lithuania and Uzbekistan an informal setting to strengthen professional ties and continue the conversations started during the sessions.
Coming up
On 11 November, the program continues with Green Culture sessions led by Shoxrux Pulatov (ADB Consultant) and Utkirjon Kholbadalov (Expertise France, AFD Group), followed by a site visit to UzAuto Motors Powertrain.
