Good Practice Guide: Addressing COVID-19 Requirements for Re-Opening Business Events V2 ( Spanish Version)

UFI has launched the SDG database for the exhibition industry, which translates the United Nations 17 Sustainable Development Goals into action. Exhibition organisers and venue operators demonstrate how the industry can make a positive environmental and social impact, while enjoying cost savings, primarily through multi-stakeholder partnerships.

The Joint Meetings Industry Council (JMIC) extended UFI’s initiative (targeted towards the exhibition industry), with a view to expanding its perspective into other business event sectors. The JMIC report is based on 43 submissions from 16 countries worldwide.

This report addresses the issue of waste in the Exhibitions Industry. It derives from several UFI actions, including the set-up of dedicated regional task forces around the world and the selection of best practices. Compiled by Greenview, Member of the UFI Sustainable Development Working Group, the report also includes a detailed insight into the European Union legislation aspects related to Waste Management, prepared by the European Exhibition Industry Alliance.
