The United Nations Environment Programme, the International Civil Aviation Organization, the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change secretariat, and the Gulf Organization for Research and Development came together to develop a sustainable events tool designed to help events industry professionals calculate the effect their event has on the environment.
The tool covers nine key operational areas of event planning and will help events professionals integrate more sustainable practices into these operational areas, producing overall more sustainable events.
The Sustainable Events Tool will be freely available for events professionals later in 2021.
