English abstract:
The implementation of Ecodesign and sustainable product development methodologies should not
only help companies in developing products with a good environmental performance but also reduce
internal costs. But it is kind of a paradox that even if costs can be reduced, Ecodesign methodologies
and strategies are not fully accepted by product developers. This paper will discuss why it is essential
to include beneath technological aspects, ethical as well as social aspects into any kind of Ecodesign
education and training.
