ISO 20121: Sustainable events
ISO 20121:2024 is an international standard designed to help plan and manage events that are environmentally responsible, socially inclusive, and economically viable — covering the entire event lifecycle.
It specifies the requirements for establishing and implementing a Sustainability-based Event Management System. The standard focuses on the identification, assessment and management of the environmental, social and economic challenges associated with the organization of events.
The aim is to promote sustainability and minimize the negative impact of events on the environment, society and the economy.
Key aspects
- Development of sustainable events: Promoting sustainability throughout all phases of an event, from planning to implementation and evaluation.
- Impact assessment: Recognizing and assessing the environmental, social, and economic impacts of events.
- Supplier management and energy efficiency: Encouraging sustainable procurement practices and efficient use of resources.
- Stakeholder engagement: Collaborating with all stakeholders, such as clients, suppliers, employees, and the community.
Applicability
The verification is applicable to any organization that organizes or participates in events, especially for:
- Event organizers who want to make their events more sustainable.
- Venues and suppliers that support eco-friendly event services.
- Organizations that want to improve their environmental image and attract sustainability-minded clients.
- Entities looking to reduce waste, improve efficiency, and meet legal or customer sustainability requirements.
