GreenErasmus-RheinAhrCampus is a company created and run by students of "International Business Simulation" course. It works with the concept of GreenErasmus, the mission of which is to engage universities worldwide in the exchange of green practices and to empower students to live and act sustainably.

Our goal was to create something innovative and useful for the students that could help them to change their lifestyle and make it greener and healthier. This is how we came up with the idea to develop the GreenMap – the unique guide for the students all over the world that can lead them to such green places as a sh
