ISO 20121:2012 is an international standard that specifies the requirements for an Event Sustainability Management System (ESMS). It provides organizations with a structured approach to managing the environmental, social and economic impacts associated with events.
The standard can be applied to events of different sizes and types, helping organizations integrate sustainability into event planning, operations and continual improvement.
ISO 20121:2012 can be implemented by organizations involved in planning, managing, organizing or supporting events. It is suitable for both public and private organizations.

Reduce waste, energy consumption, emissions and environmental impact.
Consider accessibility, inclusivity, employee welfare and community impact.
