How do we work?

The eco-counselling centre Veronica has been providing free, balanced and independent counselling since 1997 in Brno and since 2006 in Hostětín as well. The eco-counselling centre is one of the founder members of the Eco-counselling Network STEP, meets the quality standards of eco-counselling centres at the national level and offers services according to the concept of system eco-counselling (we provide and arrange information, handle analyses, offer management for a definite time period and process eco-counselling).

The information background of the eco-counselling centre profits partly from the eco-counselling activity and partly from the regular exchange of information with the employees of authorities and institutions, from experience, pieces of knowledge and expert outputs of projects coordinated by the eco-counselling centre. Within the projects we cooperate with experts from all sorts of fields - within the Ecological Institute Veronica, with experts from the academic as well as private sector. Our important partners are local governments and schools of all levels. The eco-counselling is guaranteed by professional consultants and university students.

We focus on...

  • environment-friendly building and energy savings
  • wastes
  • natural gardens
  • involvement of the public into planning and decision-making
  • greenery and springs in Brno
  • environment-friendly households and institutions
  • sustainable development of the country
