ISO 20121:2012 Event Sustainability Management Systems
ISO 20121 offers guidance and best practice to help you manage your event and control its social, economic and environmental impact. Every action counts, from relying on tap water instead of plastic bottles to encouraging use of public transport. You might find that it also helps you cut unnecessary costs.
ISO 20121’s flexible approach means that it can be used for all types of events, from music festivals to school outings.
The standard has been developed with input from many different stakeholders, including representatives from the event industry, to make it practical and useful. It addresses all stages of an events’ supply chain, and includes monitoring and measuring guidelines. If you are involved in the event industry in any way, this standard is for you.
