GreenCoin gets wide media coverage

Being the first of its kind among local tertiary institutions, PolyU’s GreenCoin has excited the University community with the opportunities that they can enjoy self-benefitting incentives to reward their sustainable habits on campus. It integrates a user-friendly mobile app, engaging gaming strategies, individual green habits, and sustainability education in a fun-filled approach.

GreenCoin has garnered media attention as well! The PolyU team steering the GreenCoin development and operations met a few of the local reporters and astonished everyone in the media interview with their behind-the-scenes stories. A staff user was also there to share her personal experience and views towards this new campaign. Reporters at the spot learned about how GreenCoin operates, and how it represents a suitable model that can be further extended to deepen sustainability principles and concepts in the wider community.
