Welcome to the June/July edition of our Global Citizenship Bulletin in EMEA.

In this issue, we have some truly exciting news from our collaboration with WWF in Europe, Middle East and Africa. HP has published a white paper, entitled "Low Carbon IT Solutions," which builds upon an academic report developed by WWF-Sweden and helps customers identify products and services that can help them achieve a lower carbon footprint.

To learn more about which technology solutions are available today can make an impact in reducing carbon emissions globally, read our article and listen to our podcast interview with Dennis Pamlin, Global Policy Advisor, WWF.

Continuing our news section with stories from a specific region or country in EMEA, we focus on HP’s social investment activities on the African continent, where HP has just signed a partnership agreement with UNIDO to extend the GET-IT programme to more African markets.

Finally, we bring you news of HP’s university grant programme where we announce the recipients of our Technology for Teaching award in EMEA.
