“Xxxx is committed to being good stewards of our environment. Xxx will fully support EWEA by sharing the desire to inspire responsible action and take social & environmental considerations into account in all of our event related activities. For EWEA, this includes:
During build up and break down of stands, reuse of materials to reduce total waste
XXX will observe the requirements to recycle waste materials as outlined in the EWEA 2011 waste management plan
XXX will place priority on the elimination of toxic chemicals, paints and adhesives by using eco-labelled products whenever possible.
With the above, Melville agrees to support EWEA in its effort toreach a 30% waste diversion target.”

MEASURING
� Track data(during event)
� Collect data and analyse it
� Report(Communicate)
TIPS & LESSONS LEARNT� Goal setting• Breakdown main goal into specific/tangible goals• Set realistic goals• Share them from day 1 (adjust if necessary)
� Supplier engagement• Discuss sustainability from day 1• Avoid verbal agreements• Collaboration vs obligation
� Measuring• Agree before event what data needed after event – data
impossible to track once event is over• Share, report!
• Often “change” is needed (big word!)
• Commitment needs to come from management
• (Nowadays it is still a) Bumpy road
....with a Happy ending!!!
