Measures of sustainability planning and management

Basic Measures

  • ISO 20121 Sustainable Event Management

ISO 20121 was developed to help the event industry put sustainability first when managing and delivering an event. The standard takes into account the geography, culture and socio demographic of an event. It enables event companies and businesses to consider a long-term view and identify the potential impacts of an event, how to reduce any negative impacts, and leave a positive legacy.
