An event that not only has a strong environmental profile but also contributes to improvements in the local and global community – and perhaps even leaves lasting positive changes behind – that is what we call sustainable. When hosting a sustainable event, there are a quite a few things to consider. Let us guide you through the three steps of 1. Planning, 2. Execution, and 3. Follow-up.
While most event planners would say that the main benefit of hosting a green event is to protect the environment. However, the benefits go far beyond protecting the planet. In fact, eco-conscious events can be an incredible asset to your organization.
While it is true that some eco-friendly options may seem expensive at first, they can help you cut down on costs over the long run. For example, collecting name badge holders and reusing them at other events can save you a lot of money.
Many people today care about decreasing their environmental footprint. Hosting a sustainable event is a great way to position your organization as a leader in sustainable event planning. You want to show attendees that you’ve taken active steps to decrease waste or “leave no trace.”
Events of any size can generate a massive amount of unnecessary waste. Hosting an eco-conscious event can be fun, fulfilling, and meaningful — not just for your organization, but also for your attendees. You’ll also find satisfaction in knowing that you’re changing the industry, one event at a time. In a world where single-use plastics and water waste have become the norm, now is the time to challenge this mindset for a better tomorrow.
This planning phase lays the groundwork for the event’s sustainability journey, emphasizing clear goals, collaboration, and environmental responsibility.
The execution phase focuses on implementing sustainability measures, ensuring safety, and effectively managing resources during the event.
Promoting successful sustainability outcomes enhances the event’s brand, drawing more participants to future editions. Key achievements like lowered climate impact, job creation, local business engagement, and audience perceptions (measured through post-event surveys) contribute to your success.
